Know before you buy
The PBTfans Doppelganger set is compatible with any keyboard using Cherry MX switches or MX-style clones, which covers the vast majority of mechanical keyboards on the market.
The Cherry profile is widely considered the industry standard for comfort. It features a sculpted, ergonomic shape that sits slightly lower than OEM profiles, making it ideal for long typing sessions.
No. These keycaps use a high-quality dye-sublimation process, which embeds the ink into the plastic rather than printing it on the surface. This ensures the legends remain crisp and resistant to fading even with heavy daily use.
Because they are crafted from high-quality PBT plastic, these keycaps are significantly more resistant to the oily shine that often develops on cheaper ABS sets. They maintain a matte, textured finish for much longer.
The set arrives in a durable, protective ABS keycap tray with a custom-designed cover. This tray is perfect for keeping your keys organized and safe during storage or if you decide to swap them out later.
