The story

Deep space on your desk.

Spaceways keycaps started as an experiment with resin casting — suspending glitter in tinted resin to create a deep-space nebula effect inside each cap.

Eight colourways were developed, each matched to popular mechanical keyboard sets like Hyperfuse and Carbon. No two caps are exactly alike.
