Yes it's 100% standard, compatible with Filco / wasd / KBC / etc after market keycaps.

And I'll have a question regarding DAS keycaps (didn't want to start a new thread).

I've used DAS, Blackwidow, Zowie and TTeSports and so far, DAS was clearly the best in "quality". Too bad I had to trade it to get 2 keyboards ;-)

My question is; how does the "DAS keycaps" are named, what is that feeling similar to velvet, if you know what I mean.
Zowie is similar to DAS, for instance, but Blackwidow has a very different keycap feel. I just would like to know how to describe DAS keycaps for my future keyboard choice.

Thanks in advance!

KBC / WASD abs keycap is most similar feeling aftermarket set. Perhaps all made in same factory.

Does DAS or anyone sell a replacement set of their "Professional" keycaps, to replace the keycaps on their "Ultimate"?

I think the only keycaps DAS sells are the WASD sets:

That said, I would grab some third-party PBT keycaps to replace them, if I were you.
