Know before you buy
These keycaps are designed for mechanical keyboards using MX-style stems, which includes Cherry MX switches and most clones from brands like Gateron, Kailh, and Durock.
No, these keycaps are made from opaque PBT plastic and are not shine-through. The legends will not allow light to pass through them.
The Cherry profile is widely favored for its lower height and sculpted, ergonomic shape. It is generally considered more comfortable for long typing sessions than taller profiles like OEM or SA.
The set is primarily designed for standard ANSI layouts. If you have a non-standard bottom row or an unusual layout like a 65% or 75% board, you should verify your key sizes against the included modifiers.
Because these keycaps use a dye-sublimation process, the ink is infused into the plastic rather than printed on the surface. This makes the legends highly resistant to fading and wear even with heavy daily use.
