Know before you buy
These keycaps are crafted from high-quality ABS plastic using a doubleshot molding process. This ensures the legends are crisp, durable, and will not fade over time.
The set is compatible with all Cherry MX switches and most MX-style clones. As long as your keyboard uses this standard stem design, these caps will fit.
The Cherry profile is widely considered the industry standard for comfort. It features a sculpted, ergonomic shape that sits lower than OEM profiles, making it ideal for long typing sessions.
PBTfans Mischief is available in multiple kits to accommodate various layouts, from standard full-size boards to more compact 65% or 75% configurations. Be sure to check the kit contents against your specific keyboard layout before purchasing.
The set comes in a custom three-layer ABS plastic tray with a designed cover. This packaging is designed to keep your keycaps organized and protected during storage or transit.
