What customers say

Enthusiasts celebrate the rich colorway, capturing deep reds and creamy whites inspired by Spanish Jamón. The doubleshot ABS plastic is consistently lauded for its satisfying texture, thickness, and crisp legends, confirming its status as a top tier set based on physical excellence.

Know before you buy
The GMK Jamón 2 set is crafted from 1.5mm doubleshot ABS plastic. These are manufactured in Germany by GMK, ensuring high-quality legends that will not fade over time.
These keycaps are compatible with any mechanical keyboard that uses Cherry MX style switches. Please note that they do not support backlighting, as the ABS plastic is opaque.
The Cherry profile is widely considered the industry standard for comfort. It features a sculpted, ergonomic shape that sits lower than OEM profiles, making it ideal for long typing sessions.
The base kit covers most standard layouts, but the set offers multiple expansion kits to accommodate non-standard bottom rows, split spacebars, or smaller form factors like 65% and 75% boards.
No. Because these keycaps are produced using a doubleshot injection molding process, the legends are molded into the plastic itself rather than printed on the surface, ensuring they remain crisp indefinitely.
