Know before you buy
These keycaps are designed for standard ANSI layouts and are compatible with any keyboard using Cherry MX or MX-style cross-stem switches. Please ensure your keyboard uses this standard stem type before purchasing.
Side-printed legends offer a clean, minimalist aesthetic for your keycaps. While they look sleek, keep in mind that you will need to look at the front edge of the keys rather than the top surface to read the characters.
Yes, they are crafted from PBT plastic, which is known for its high durability and resistance to the shine that often develops on cheaper ABS plastic over time. The matte finish also helps maintain a consistent feel during long typing sessions.
Because these are backlit-compatible, the RGB lighting shines through the side-printed legends and creates a vibrant glow around the keys. The warm orange-to-yellow gradient enhances the light, giving your setup a sunset-inspired ambiance.
The Cherry profile is a popular, ergonomic keycap shape that is slightly shorter than the standard OEM profile. Many enthusiasts prefer it because it offers a comfortable, natural typing angle that reduces finger fatigue during extended use.
