Know before you buy
No, these keycaps are not shine-through. The PBT plastic is opaque, so light will not pass through the legends.
The legends are created using a dye-sublimation process, which embeds the ink into the plastic. This makes them highly resistant to fading and wear compared to standard pad-printed keys.
No, this product listing is strictly for the keycap set. You will need to provide your own mechanical keyboard to install them.
These keycaps are made from PBT plastic. This material is favored for its textured feel and resistance to the 'shine' that often develops on ABS plastic over time.
The set was designed by the artist Shipkie, who created the unique aesthetic and thematic elements featured on the keycaps.
