Know before you buy
These keycaps are designed for keyboards using Cherry MX style switches. Because the set includes 143 keys, it offers broad compatibility for most standard layouts, but you should verify your specific keyboard's bottom row and shift key sizes before purchasing.
PBT plastic is denser and more textured than standard ABS, providing a more tactile feel and a slightly deeper sound profile. Crucially, PBT is highly resistant to the 'shine' that often develops on keycaps after long-term use.
The Cherry profile is widely favored by enthusiasts for its sculpted, ergonomic shape that sits lower than the standard OEM profile. This design helps reduce finger fatigue during extended typing sessions.
Yes, the legends are created using a dye-sublimation process, which infuses the ink directly into the plastic. This ensures the characters will not fade or wear off, even with heavy, daily use.
No, this product consists exclusively of the keycap set. You will need to provide your own mechanical keyboard to install these keys.
