Know before you buy
The Rei Keycap Set is compatible with most keyboards using standard MX-style cross stems and ANSI layouts. It supports a wide range of sizes, including 60%, TKL, and full-size boards, and includes a 1.75u Right Shift for more compact layouts.
You can choose between blank caps for a minimalist look, solid purple text for a clean aesthetic, or translucent text. The translucent option is specifically designed to allow your keyboard's backlighting to shine through the legends.
The Alpherior OEM profile features a sculpted, ergonomic shape with varying heights across rows, which is common for standard typing. The XDA profile offers a uniform, flat height across all rows, providing a consistent feel and a distinct, modern look.
Yes, they are crafted from high-quality PBT plastic with a matte finish, which resists the shine that often develops on cheaper ABS keycaps over time. The dye-sublimation printing process ensures the legends are permanently infused into the plastic, preventing them from fading or wearing off.
Yes, if you require the four 1u novelty keys or the 1.75u Right Shift for your specific layout, please be sure to include that request when placing your order to ensure they are included in your set.
