Know before you buy
No, the lettering on this set is opaque. While the keycaps will fit over backlit switches, the light will not shine through the legends themselves.
This set is designed for keyboards using Cherry MX style switches or clones. Please note that they are not compatible with Omni Point switches or non-standard keyboard layouts.
These keycaps are made from durable PBT plastic, which is known for its resistance to shine and a slightly textured, premium feel compared to standard ABS plastic.
The Cherry Profile is a popular, shorter keycap shape that is sculpted to be slightly lower than the standard OEM profile. Many users find this profile more comfortable for long typing sessions due to its ergonomic, tiered design.
This is a full-sized 104-key set. While it will cover a 60% or TKL keyboard, you will have a significant number of extra keys left over that won't fit your specific layout.
