Know before you buy
These keycaps are compatible with any keyboard using MX-style switches, which feature the standard cross-shaped stem. They are designed to fit most mechanical keyboards on the market.
The 1.5mm thickness provides a solid, premium feel and a deeper sound profile compared to thinner keycaps. PBT plastic is also highly resistant to the shine that develops on ABS keycaps over time.
No, these keycaps are not designed for backlighting. The dye-sublimated PBT material is opaque, so light will not shine through the legends.
The Cherry profile is a lower-height, sculpted keycap shape that is widely considered the industry standard for comfort. It features a slight curve across the rows, which helps reduce finger fatigue during long typing sessions.
Because these keycaps use a dye-sublimation process, the ink is infused directly into the plastic rather than printed on the surface. This ensures the legends remain crisp and permanent even with years of intensive use.
