Introduction


The Ramune60 is a playful 60% gasket-mount keyboard. 

Inspired by the Japanese soda Ramune, it combines a classic overall shape design with modern elements. 

It offers three layouts (True HHKB, WKL, and WK) and comes in standard colors, a Kuro Edition, and a special collaborative colorway with GMK Gurokawa

—five case color options in total.

Ramune60’s inspiration


The design of this keyboard was inspired by Ramune, the iconic Japanese soda known for its playful charm and distinctive glass bottle.

With its clear lower half filled with fizzy soda, opaque top cap, and signature glass marble sealed inside, 

the Ramune bottle serves as a direct motif for the keyboard’s form and color palette.


This keyboard captures the refreshing character of Ramune through both its aesthetics and sound. 

The low-profile case enhances usability while perfectly matching the light and breezy concept. 

Additionally, a carefully tested and tuned Poron gasket delivers a crisp and clear typing sound that complements the overall design.
