Know before you buy
These keycaps are designed for keyboards with Cherry MX style stems and a standard 104-key ANSI layout. If your keyboard uses a non-standard bottom row or proprietary switch stems, they may not be fully compatible.
No, these keycaps are solid PBT and do not feature translucent legends. They are designed for a clean, opaque aesthetic rather than backlighting support.
The OEM profile is the standard height and shape found on most pre-built mechanical keyboards. It features a sculpted, ergonomic curve that is generally comfortable for both typing and gaming.
No, these use a double-shot injection molding process. Because the legends are molded into the plastic itself rather than printed on the surface, they will not fade or wear away with use.
These keycaps have a matte, slightly textured finish that feels substantial and resists the 'shine' that often develops on cheaper ABS plastic keycaps over time.
