Sometimes the best things in life are those you don’t see coming—the out of the blue, the dark horse, the underdog. Our latest collaboration with MiTo, DCS Sleeper is an understated keycap set that’s not to be underestimated Read More
R: If your keyboard features MX mount, most likely yes.
What are the keycap sizes?
R: Refer to the images and descriptions on this page.
Packaging?
R: Aiming for customized trays and cardboard boxes.
What's DCS?
R: A keycap set profile manufactured by Signature Plastics (Comptec Inc.) in Custer, WA (known for the original SA, DSA keycaps). The DCS style of keycaps was frequently used on 80s/90s computing systems distributed for the USA/Canada/France markets and are frequently found in Wyse terminals, for example.
Why these specs?
R: I appreciate sleeper PC modding, the soft colors I selected and the ABS/2shot material. Regarding comfort, the DCS profile is one of the best cylindrical sculpted profiles that exist, especially when combined with smooth switches. Thanks to the reduced thickness of the keycaps, the DCS profile is believed to highlight the feel of whatever switches are in use, unlike thicker options that end up "dampening" the feel of the switches a little.
Materials, legends?
R: The Sleeper project is made with ABS plastic (1.1 mm thick) and will feature the exact legends and sculpt seen on the render below.

Can anyone comment on whether DCS keycaps alleviate the interference issues of Cherry keycaps. I've read that DCS keycaps have significantly thinner walls and that perhaps it solves the interference problem of coliding with the switch housing before bottoming out. Can anyone confirm if this is true? I've never owned a cherry keycap set, and this might just be a safer bet if it doesn't suffer from interference. DCS seems very similar to the Cherry profile in all other respects.
I think you’re overthinking stuff a little, there’s nothing to be worried or confused about. There’s a fair amount of stock of this product incoming. If quantities sell out, the buy button automatically fades.
Early birds got a discount, people can pre order now for the current prices and once the set is in stock (ready to ship within 2 business days) price will increase one last time. Place your order whenever you can/want.
Instead of being a douche bag, you could just be reasonable and see that the colors are different, the profile is different, the legends are different, the kits are different and the inspiration for the project is also different. Because the two projects are completely different. By your logic Dracula is an Oblivion clone, Olivia is a Honeywell clone, and every set is another set's clone. If you wanna call out clones, you be consistent and call out everyone. Or just be honest that you're a hater, because you are a hater.
