Know before you buy
Double Shot refers to a manufacturing process where two layers of plastic are molded together to form the keycap. This ensures the legends will never fade or wear off over time, as they are physically part of the keycap structure rather than printed on the surface.
These keycaps are compatible with any mechanical keyboard that uses MX-style switches, which feature a cross-shaped stem. They are designed for standard ANSI layouts.
The Base Kit provides the standard set of keys required to cover most common keyboard layouts. The Novelties Kit includes custom-designed, thematic keys that allow you to add unique accents and personality to your board.
The Cherry profile is widely favored by enthusiasts for its sculpted, ergonomic shape and relatively low height. It provides a comfortable, consistent typing experience that is generally considered more refined than the taller OEM profile found on many stock keyboards.
No, this product consists of keycaps only. You will need to have your own mechanical keyboard with MX-style switches to install them.
