Know before you buy
These keycaps are manufactured from high-quality ABS plastic, which is the standard material used by GMK to achieve vibrant color reproduction and crisp, sharp legends.
The set is designed for keyboards using Cherry MX style switches. As long as your keyboard utilizes this standard stem design, these keycaps will be compatible.
The Cherry profile is a popular, sculpted keycap shape known for its ergonomic feel and slightly lower height compared to OEM profiles. It is widely favored by enthusiasts for its comfortable typing experience and classic aesthetic.
The legends are created using a double-shot molding process. This technique injects two different colors of plastic into the mold, ensuring the legends will never fade or wear off over time.
This product includes the keycap set only. It does not include a keyboard, switches, or stabilizers.
