Know before you buy
These keycaps are designed for mechanical keyboards using Cherry MX style stems. This includes most standard mechanical switches from brands like Cherry, Gateron, Kailh, and Durock.
The Cherry profile is a popular, sculpted shape that is slightly lower and more ergonomic than the standard OEM profile found on many pre-built boards. It is widely favored for its comfortable, consistent typing feel during long sessions.
No, the legends will not fade. Because they are created using a double-shot molding process, the characters are molded into the plastic itself rather than printed on the surface, ensuring they remain crisp for the life of the keycap.
This set is crafted from high-quality, 1.5mm thick ABS plastic. ABS is chosen for this set to provide a smooth, premium texture and vibrant color reproduction that captures the Motosu Lake theme effectively.
This product includes the keycap set only. You will need to provide your own mechanical keyboard, switches, and stabilizers to complete your build.
