Know before you buy
This set is compatible with Cherry MX switches and most MX-style clones. With 145 keys included, it covers a wide range of layouts, including standard full-size, TKL, and many compact configurations.
The Cherry profile is shorter and more sculpted than the standard OEM profile found on many pre-built keyboards. Many users prefer it for its ergonomic, comfortable feel during long typing sessions.
No, the legends are created using a dye-sublimation process, which infuses the ink directly into the PBT plastic. This makes the designs highly resistant to fading and wear, even with heavy daily use.
These keycaps are made from high-quality PBT plastic, which is naturally more resistant to the oily shine that often develops on cheaper ABS keycaps over time. They maintain a matte, textured finish for much longer.
These keycaps feature a thickness of approximately 1.7mm. This substantial wall thickness provides a deeper, more satisfying sound profile and a sturdier feel compared to thinner stock keycaps.
