Know before you buy
This keycap is designed with a standard MX-style stem, making it compatible with all Cherry MX switches and most MX-style clones from brands like Gateron, Kailh, and Outemu.
The Murray keycap features an SA R1 profile, which is specifically designed for the top row of your keyboard, such as the Esc key or the function row.
No, this is a solid, hand-painted resin artisan keycap. It is not designed to be backlit, so light will not shine through the hippo motif.
Each keycap comes with rubber finger gloves to help you handle the piece without leaving oils or smudges on the matte finish. If it needs cleaning, use a soft, dry microfiber cloth to gently wipe away dust.
While it is built to be a functional keycap, it is a delicate, hand-painted collectible. It is best suited for accent keys like the Esc key rather than high-traffic keys like the spacebar or alphanumeric keys.
