9009 Retro Series Keycap Set

9009 Retro Series Keycap Set

A Tribute to Legacy

Among the many iconic terminals of industrial computing, few have the enduring appeal of the G80-9009. With a functional style to match its imposing size, this Cherry-manufactured board established a colorway that keyboard enthusiasts have sought out ever since. This 9009 Retro Series is a tribute to that legacy, built with timeless character and modern, premium construction.

Paying homage to the original’s classic palette, this beige-and-gray set is accented with small touches of muted green and dusty red for a look that’s both retro and refreshing. And while you may not be using yours on a factory floor, it will handle the most intensive typing sessions, thanks to its thick PBT construction.

A Tribute to Legacy

A Modern Build with a Classic Soul

The classic 9009 colorway is just the starting point. This set is built with high-grade PBT and heavy-duty 1.7mm walls - a noticeable step up from the standard 1.4mm. The result is a more substantial feel under your fingers and a deeper, more satisfying sound profile with every keystroke. The legends aren't printed on top; they're dye-sublimated directly into the plastic. They will not fade or wear away.

Questions & Specs

Questions & Answers

What is Cherry profile?

Cherry profile is one of the most popular keycap profiles, known for its sculpted design that's comfortable for typing. It's shorter than OEM profile and has a distinct angled slant across its rows, which many typists find more ergonomic.

Will this fit my keyboard?

The base kits are designed for broad compatibility with today's most popular layouts, from 60% up to TKL. They are a great fit for boards like the Rainy75, Crush80, and Evo80. We recommend checking your keyboard's layout against the kit diagrams on this page to ensure full compatibility, especially for non-standard bottom rows or right-shift keys.

What's the difference between PBT and ABS plastic?

PBT (polybutylene terephthalate) is a denser, more durable plastic than ABS. It's resistant to the oils from your fingers, which means it won't develop a "shine" over time. It also tends to produce a deeper sound.

What does "dye-sublimation" mean?

Dye-sublimation is a printing process where heat is used to turn ink directly into a gas, which then infuses into the plastic. This creates a permanent legend that is part of the keycap itself and cannot be felt or worn away.
