Introducing kc_orange_60 keyboard, a tribute to orange maps (whether it's DoD 3.1, TF2, or CS:S) of our early gaming days, born from late-night sessions and pure nostalgia. Available in anodized Orange or Grey. A Keycapsule x Flatbrains collab.
The GB is planned for January 2026 exclusively on Keycapsule (https://keycapsule.shop) and will come along our upcoming third keycap capsule (kc_orange).
We would like to hear your comments, so please complete our IC form (https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeVIff4wZqyXehv3_4XGa4CXeoZFovdgxqgyB7APBXiLrrLKw/viewform?usp=header).
We are still considering whether to offer two versions, with and without a wrist rest.

Beautiful board.
FYI, your embedded link to the store points to:
"https//keycapsule.shop"
Which Chrome really dislikes.
