Know before you buy
These keycaps are compatible with any keyboard using Cherry MX or MX-style cross-stem switches. They are designed for standard ANSI layouts, so ensure your keyboard uses this common configuration before purchasing.
The Cherry profile is widely favored for its ergonomic, sculpted shape that sits lower than OEM profiles. This design helps reduce finger fatigue during long typing or gaming sessions by providing a more natural angle.
Yes, the legends are created using a dye-sublimation process. This embeds the ink into the PBT plastic, ensuring the characters will not fade, chip, or wear off even with heavy, long-term use.
The set includes 129 keycaps, covering standard alphas, modifiers, function keys, and a number pad. It also features novelty keys to customize your layout, but please note that the keyboard base and switches are not included.
PBT plastic has a slightly textured, matte finish that feels more premium and grippy than the smooth, shiny ABS plastic found on many stock keyboards. It is also more resistant to developing that 'oily' shine over time.
