Title: Looking for a non-specific keycap set
Post by: Aperture_Sci on Wed, 28 September 2016, 12:39:34

Hey all, new to geekhack (and forums in general, apologies if I did something wrong) but been on /r/Mechmarket & /r/Mechanicalkeyboards for some time now. I'm looking for the off-grey/ beige/ light brown keycaps everyone seems to have - I think they look very good with some color modifiers, however, they only place I can find them for sale is on Originitive for $115 for a 60% set? I essentially want something that looks like the TADA68 keyset or similar.

Any help is appreciated!!

Just to be clear, are you looking for something like this?

Classic beige keysets can be had for very cheap if you go hunting for vintage boards. WASD also supplies them (as they do everything), but then you're using WASD keys, which traditionally aren't the best.

Most people have GMK beige sets from the old Originative buy (I don't know if Originative is still shady, I've been away for a while and still maintain a boycott), or from another GB that was run a year and a half ago or so. I'd assume it gets run often since it's a popular colorway.

Also, I think Vortex sells a similar colorway.
