"Similar to Cherry Clear" and the spring weight make these sound like pre-made Ergo Clears. Would this be an accurate description?

By any chance, do you have a photo of the sliders against a Clear for comparison?

I asked the same thing on their discord to see if possibly they made their own molds but as I thought they will be made by JWK. I think they're saying they designed the colorway lol

"Similar to Cherry Clear." Made by JWK. Hmmm. I wonder if these are like the FFFF switches or Leopold Star, that are rumoured to be similar to Ergo Clears. Or if they are more like T1s/Pandas.

That would imply they have their own factory and molds. Which, we know now, that they don't. It's produced by JWK.

People on Discord seem to think these are just T1s.
