They look like your average plastic caps.

The size of the legend printed on the front means you most likely won't even be able to see what it is when the backlighting is turned on.

I'd ordered their little sampler kit for testing on my Corsair K70.  This is what they look like.  They have an identical sound to the other K70 keycaps.  The sampler didn't have lettering on them.

I have them with some blue LEDS and esoomenona is correct they feel like your average plastic caps and you will not be able to see the legend that is printed on the front.
