Know before you buy
These keycaps feature a standard MX-style cross mount. They are compatible with Cherry MX switches and most MX-style clones from brands like Gateron, Kailh, and Durock.
The Mischief set is crafted from high-quality ABS plastic. This material is chosen for its ability to produce vibrant, consistent colors and sharp, crisp doubleshot legends.
No, these keycaps are not backlight-compatible. The doubleshot legends are opaque, meaning light will not pass through the characters on the keys.
The Cherry profile is a standard, sculpted keycap shape known for its comfortable, ergonomic feel. It is widely preferred by enthusiasts because it is slightly shorter than the OEM profile, providing a familiar and efficient typing experience.
No, this is a keycap set only. You will need to provide your own mechanical keyboard, switches, and stabilizers to complete your build.
The Mischief set is designed for standard ANSI layouts. If you are using a non-standard layout, such as ISO or a compact board with unique bottom row sizing, you should verify your specific key sizes against the included kit contents.
