Know before you buy
The blend combines the durability and scratch resistance of PBT with the crisp, clean aesthetic of ABS. This results in a keycap that maintains a premium matte finish over time while resisting the oily shine that often develops on pure ABS sets.
These keycaps are compatible with any keyboard using Cherry MX style (cross-stem) switches. They support a wide range of layouts, including standard full-size, TKL, 75%, 65%, 60%, Alice, and various specialty layouts like HHKB and Tsangan.
The Cherry Profile is widely considered the industry standard for comfort. It features a sculpted, ergonomic shape that sits lower than OEM profiles, making it ideal for long typing sessions and reducing finger fatigue.
Yes, the legends are created using a doubleshot injection process. Because the characters are molded into the keycap rather than printed on the surface, they will never fade or wear off, even with heavy daily use.
These keycaps feature a matte surface finish. This provides a subtle, tactile grip that feels consistent under your fingertips and helps prevent the keys from looking greasy after extended use.
