About DSS Profile
Click MORE for more information
More
DSS profile was created by Comptec Inc (now known as Signature Plastics) to fit the universal keycap standards introduced in the mid-80s. Fading out of the spotlight shortly after in favor of its uniform brother DSA, DSS was considered lost to history until its reintroduction in the late 2010s.

Featuring a spherical top (similar to DSA), DSS is sculpted profile, much like the Cherry and SA profiles in that regard. Made from ABS plastic, DSS offers a unique typing experience. If you’ve ever wished that your DSA keycaps were sculpted, your GMK keycaps were spherical, or you just want to try something new… DSS may be right for you.

DSS Mischief uses a 1-1-2-3-4-3 sculpt.

To compare DSS to your favorite keycap profiles, check out Keycaps.info (https://www.keycaps.info/)

Note: As SP does not offer split spacebars in the DSS profile, DSA blanks are offered as an alternative in the base, 40s, and spacebar kits.

I would seriously consider making accents (enter, escape, spacebar, arrows) with golden base and green legends

Havn't even recieved my first DSS set yet, so don't even know if I like the profile, but I do like the lead times these sets get. And this color way is really tempting.
