Know before you buy
This keycap is designed with an MX stem, making it compatible with Cherry MX switches and most standard mechanical keyboard switches that follow the MX-style cross-mount design.
The keycap is designed with translucent sections in the eyes. When placed on a keyboard with per-key RGB or LED lighting, the light shines through the eyes to create a glowing effect.
This keycap features a unique 'Other' profile, which means it does not conform to standard OEM or Cherry profiles. It is intended to stand out as a decorative accent key rather than matching the height and shape of a standard typing row.
The Kitsune keycap is crafted from durable resin. This material allows for the intricate detailing of the Kitsune design while maintaining a lightweight feel on your keyboard switches.
No, this keycap is designed for standard-sized keys and is not compatible with spacebars. It is intended for use on single-unit keys like the Escape key or function keys.
