Know before you buy
These keycaps are designed for keyboards using Cherry MX-style cross-stem switches and follow the standard ANSI layout. They are compatible with most mechanical keyboards that utilize this universal mounting system.
Side-printed legends offer a minimalist, clean look for your keyboard's top surface. Because the legends are on the front-facing side, they are easily visible to you while typing, though they may be less noticeable from a direct top-down angle.
Yes, these keycaps are designed to be shine-through compatible. This allows your keyboard's RGB lighting to illuminate the legends and the gaps between keys for a vibrant effect.
The Cherry profile is widely favored for its ergonomic, sculpted shape that sits slightly lower than the standard OEM profile. This design helps reduce finger fatigue during extended typing sessions by providing a more natural curvature for your fingertips.
No, these are crafted from PBT plastic, which is highly resistant to the oils and friction that cause standard ABS keycaps to develop an unwanted shine. The matte finish is designed to maintain its textured feel even after heavy, long-term use.
