Know before you buy
Yes, these keycaps use a standard MX-style cross stem, making them compatible with most Cherry MX-style mechanical switches regardless of the keyboard brand.
The OEM profile is the industry standard for mechanical keyboards, offering a familiar, sculpted shape that is comfortable for most users. It provides a consistent typing angle that is generally easier to adapt to than flatter profiles like DSA or XDA.
No, the five-sided dye-sublimation process infuses the ink directly into the PBT plastic. This ensures the legends remain crisp and vibrant even with heavy, long-term use.
PBT plastic is significantly more durable and resistant to the 'shine' that develops on ABS keycaps after extended use. It also offers a slightly textured, matte finish that provides a more premium tactile feel.
The set includes specific modifier keys for Windows and Linux, allowing you to customize your layout to match your operating system preferences.
