Drop + Bees.Keys DCD Hundred Acres Keycap Set

A great teddy bear once said: “Sometimes the smallest things take up the most room in your heart.” In our latest DCD keycap set, we took his words—and his whole world—to heart. Say hello to Drop + Bees.Keys DCD Hundred Acres: a whole collection of small things as sweet as honey. Beautifully imagined by Bees.Keys, this playful keycap set takes its inspiration from the published stories of A.A Milne—and the iconic illustrations of E. H. Shepard—where stuffed animals come to life to spend days with their friend, Christopher Robin. Crafted from ultra-smooth PBT in our exclusive DCD profile, the caps in this set are colored in an off-white reminiscent of a well-loved storybook, with legends rendered in a whimsical script not unlike that found on some of the most famous Winnie the Pooh publications. Make your way across the modifiers, and you’ll find small illustrations in Shepard’s style, each featuring a few characters you’re sure to recognize. (Pick up the Novelties Kit to find even more characters—plus a few pots of honey thrown in for good measure.) Ready to turn your workstation into a hundred-acre wood?

A go-to for many enthusiasts because of its durability and shine-resistance, PBT has a unique feel that can also be a source of friction—both figuratively and literally. For some, it’s great. For others, it’s grit. DCD offers an alternative. Short for Drop Cylindrical Dye-Sub, DCD is part of the Drop Cylindrical family of keycap profiles, along with DCX (Drop Cylindrical X) and DCL (Drop Cylindrical Lumen). Unlike the other two, which are made from ABS, DCD features a proprietary PBT material that retains all of the advantages of the plastic without its trademark texture. In short, DCD keycaps are smooth. Of course, like the rest of the Drop Cylindrical family, they feature a shorter, subtly sculpted shape with exceptional overall build quality. For a truly blemish-free look that lasts, each keycap’s sprue mark is located on its interior (rather than on a finished side, like many caps). Look closely at the legends, and you’ll find our exacting reverse dye-sublimation process at work, allowing this set’s lighter iconography to stand out against a darker base. It’s seamless typing, from aesthetics to texture. It’s DCD: a peerless PBT profile, only on Drop.
