Cap colors
BoW will be the
same as approved in round 1. Stock white (same as KAT
Milkshake, KAT Alpha).
WoB is still TBD. New samples
will be ordered but current sample will be used unless we
can achieve a deeper black.

General
-
I shot the caps with different types of light, during
different parts of the day. The shot on the wooden table
has a lot of light hitting the caps so you can clearly see
the difference in the brightness of the caps and the black
color.
WoB caps -
Darkness of the black is not as deep as GMK as you can
see. There is an option to go even darker but it will have
severe implications on the legends. I am in discussions
with Keyreative currently to see if there is a way we can
go deeper black without messing up the legends somehow. It
might be a lengthy process but
I will order new sample caps and see where we end
up. For now this will be the selected version until further
notice. TBD!
WoB legends -
These are rocking the same legends as last time. Thicker,
but works very well in this case. I am happy where they
are at so no changes expected.
BoW caps -
I did not receive new samples of the White Stock color
that I approved already. But I did receive KAT 176 which
looks nice, but it is NOT what we are going with. It is
only in the photos so show off the new thinner legends.
BoW legends -
These legends are new and approximately 20% thinner than
in Round 1 and WoB. They look much better but I still need
to increase the letterspacing a bit to avoid having the
letters almost touch. New round of sample caps will be
ordered.

About the set
More
Ive been curious about the KAT profile ever since it was
released. Heard good things about the typing experience and
sound but I could just never get past the legends. As with
most sculpted profiles the legends are really big, centered
and seem less thought out than GMK/Cherry.
That
being said, I get that some people love them. And thats
cool, I dont want to step on designers toes but I am just
not into that look at all. I thought that perhaps there are
more people like me out there, who are annoyed with GMK
icons/legends but cant find a good alternative. Or
people who are willing to try a more sculpted profile but
just cant see themselves using centered
legends/icons.
This one is for you.
