Know before you buy
These keycaps are designed for mechanical keyboards using Cherry MX-style switches. They follow the standard ANSI layout, making them compatible with most mainstream mechanical keyboards on the market.
The Cherry profile is widely favored for its comfortable, sculpted shape and slightly shorter height compared to the standard OEM profile. It offers a familiar, ergonomic feel that is generally considered easier to type on for long sessions.
No, the legends are applied using a dye-sublimation process. This method infuses the ink directly into the PBT plastic, ensuring the characters remain crisp and resistant to fading even with heavy daily use.
These keycaps feature a matte finish, which provides a subtle, premium texture. This finish helps prevent the 'shine' that often develops on smoother keycaps over time and offers a more secure grip while typing.
They are crafted from PBT material. PBT is a denser, more durable plastic that is highly resistant to the oils from your fingers, ensuring the keycaps maintain their original look and feel for years.
