Hi !
I've been looking for an AZERTY keycaps set for a long time but never found something ...
I talked to azhdar (since he is french like me) about this, and he has a nice keycaps set "SA Retro" with french layout, but he told me that the only way to get it is by groups buys, or someone who have it and want to sell it, meh :(
I bought a keycaps set on WASD keyboard but the keycaps are, for me, not the best (thin, not the best quality) so I just want to throw them.
If someone knows some website, or anyone who sells these kind of keycap, let me know !
Thanks !

EDIT : something like this with french http://keypuller.com/granite/ would be amazing :)

Thanks for the reply !
I have a Pok3r and it cames with these keycaps, but I don't like how you can see the Cherry thing under (like this https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/comments/3hevyw/pretty_appalling_quality_on_the_vortex_pbt/)

A lot of SP sets (like granite that you mentioned) get sold with an international kit that includes AZERTY keys. You'll have to buy the entire int kit in most cases though.

You'd either want sculpted profile (e.g. Cherry profile) in AZERTY layout (which is rare), or uniform profile (e.g. uniform SA or DSA) which would allow you to swap keycaps around to any layout as each keycap is exactly the same shape.
Or buckling spring - they are uniform profile :)
