Hi Everyone,
In collaboration with AlphaKeys, we’ve decided to bring back our Halu-halo Switches, but this time with KTT as the manufacturer! All 3 stem colors will be offered this time around! The switches will come mixed together, we won’t be selling the different colors separately. The switches will also come in ice cream pint packaging! You can see what it looks like below!
Why did you make HaloHalo themed switches?
In addition to color coordinating our setup, our choices were also heavily inspired by Halo Halo. For those of you who don’t know what that is, it’s a dessert from the Philippines made of crushed ice, evaporated milk, ube ice cream, sweetened beans, coconut stripes, sago, gulaman (seaweed gelatin), pinipig rice, boiled root crops, fruit slices, and flan). It’s one of our favorite desserts, and we’ve always thought the bright colors contrasted the purple very well. So, we figured it might look nice on some switches as well, but we’ll let you guys be the judge of that.
We also wanted to address the spelling since this was brought up a few time with our JWK Halu-halos. Our switches are spelled Halu-Halo instead of Halo-Halo due to the trademark Input Club has on Halo Switches.

Please note that these colors may look slightly different in person than they do on your computer screen.


Color Matching Photos

We’ve included a photo of the sample switches next to actual pantone color chips so you can get a better idea of what the colors look like. For comparison, we’ve also included our JWK Haluhalos (on the far right), and GMK Vaporwave in the background. The purple housing of our KTT Halu-halo is ever so slightly darker than our JWK Halu-halos.




What do these switches taste like?
Although Haluhalo is delicious, we do not recommend eating switches.
