Know before you buy
These keycaps are compatible with all Cherry MX switches and MX-style clones, which feature the standard cross-shaped stem mount.
The set uses high-quality dye-sublimation, which embeds the ink into the plastic. This process ensures the legends remain crisp and resistant to fading even with heavy daily use.
The Cherry Profile is widely considered the industry standard for comfort. It features a sculpted, ergonomic shape that is slightly lower than the OEM profile, making it ideal for long typing sessions.
The ePBT Travelling set is modular, so you should check your keyboard's layout against the contents of the Base kit. If you have a non-standard layout, such as a 65%, 75%, or Alice-style board, you may need to purchase the additional Novelties or specialized layout kits.
PBT is a premium, dense plastic that is highly resistant to the 'shine' that develops on cheaper ABS keycaps over time. It provides a textured, matte finish that feels more substantial and durable under your fingertips.
