Know before you buy
These keycaps are compatible with any keyboard using Cherry MX style switches, which feature the standard cross-shaped stem. They support a wide range of layouts, including 60%, 65%, 75%, 80%, 96%, and full-sized 100% boards.
No, these keycaps are not shine-through. The legends are solid, so light will not pass through the characters even if your keyboard has per-key RGB lighting.
The ASA profile is a taller, sculpted profile that features spherical tops to cradle your fingertips. Many users find this shape more ergonomic and comfortable for long typing sessions compared to standard flat profiles.
Because they are crafted from high-quality PBT plastic, these keycaps are highly resistant to the oily shine that often develops on cheaper ABS plastic over time. The matte finish helps maintain a clean, consistent look even with heavy daily use.
These keycaps use a double-shot molding process, meaning the legends are physically molded into the plastic rather than printed on top. This ensures the characters will never fade or wear away, even after years of use.
