Know before you buy
These keycaps are designed for Cherry MX switches and most MX-style mechanical switch clones. They will fit the vast majority of custom mechanical keyboards on the market today.
Double-shot molding involves injecting two layers of plastic to form the keycap and the legend separately. This ensures the legends will never fade or wear off, even with heavy, long-term use.
GMK uses high-quality ABS plastic, which is known for its smooth texture and vibrant color reproduction. While it may develop a slight shine over time with heavy use, it provides a crisp, satisfying sound profile that many enthusiasts prefer.
Cherry profile keycaps are shorter than standard OEM caps and feature a sculpted, ergonomic shape. This design is widely considered the industry standard for comfort, as it helps reduce finger fatigue during extended typing sessions.
The shimmer is designed to be subtle and elegant rather than overwhelming. It catches the light to provide a cosmic effect against the deep black base, giving the set a premium, unique look without being distracting.
