      Hi Everyone,

      Customization was one of the focal points from the very beginning of this design. We've been thinking about ways to offer the next level of customization, not just customization through changing just the plate, switches, and keycaps. Our keyboards have always been highly customizable, and we hope we've pushed the options a little further with this new addition - The Promise87

      Along with lots of other customizable options, we are giving you the option to engrave your own text/graphic to the bottom of the Promise87!

      Ultimate Customization Options


      Promise87 - Standard Units
      A Promise87 bespoke unit can have 8 different customizable components. We will pick some of the most popular combos and offer them as standard units, without any custom engraving on the back weights.

      Read on below to see more details on the customizable components.

      Promise87 - Bespoke Units
      There will be a limited number of bespoke units, which lets you customize the following components with the listed options:

      • Pink
      • Silver
      • Pine
      • Burgundy

      Improved Gasket Material & Design

      Open-source Gasket Slip Design with New Material
      • Gasket slip design, easier to install
      • Strong stability, fireproof, it’s very durable and keeps original flex after long-time usage
      • Density between PORON and silicone. There will be 2-3 different stiffness in different colors for you to choose the feeling you like
      • Open source


      Wuque studio will keep stocking the gasket slips and also welcome other board designers to use our slips, we can provide specs you need and make sure that everyone will be able to replace different slips all the time.

      New Plate & Switch Foam Design
      We created a mold using our new foaming material to make an 2 in 1 dampener kit, it will make the overall dampening system more stable and helps to make typing sound better. We will release typing sound test in the next update.

      Pricing
        • Standard Edition: ~$500 USD (PVD editions may be more)
        • Bespoke Edition: ~$800 USD
        • Bespoke Edition (with Moissanite): ~$900 USD

      If you are interested in Promise87, please fill in Promise87 IC form
      An Open Discussion
      The design under the TKL cluster is at the heart of the case design. The options are no line or Moissanite, line only, and line and Moissanite. We have already decided on the name for the first option, we need your help to name the other two!


      Case Option A (Line & Moissanite) = Promise87 Heartbeat

      Case Option B (Line only) =?

      Case Option C (No line or Moissanite) = ?

      I like it! Im all for making the top plate having some flair and I think this is different enough. Looking forward to it.

      I assume a WKL TKL in ANSISO layout with a hotswap PCB is an option since this is "the next level of customization"

      Looks good! Does the PCB support ISO? Solder or hotswap? Would love to be able to see the supported layouts somewhere.
