Know before you buy
These keycaps are designed for Cherry MX style switches, which includes most mechanical switches from brands like Gateron, Kailh, and Durock.
With 173 keys included, this set offers extensive coverage that supports most standard layouts, as well as many popular enthusiast configurations like 65%, 75%, and TKL boards.
Because the legends are molded as a separate piece of plastic rather than printed on the surface, they are physically incapable of fading or wearing off, even with heavy daily use.
The Cherry profile is widely considered the industry standard for mechanical keyboards. It features a sculpted, ergonomic shape that sits lower than OEM profiles, making it comfortable for long typing sessions.
No, this is a keycap-only set. You will need to provide your own mechanical keyboard base to install these keys.
