DDC can be considered a trial product. If the profile is well received, we intend to expand the offering to include mod, thumb and space keys, as well as legends if demand exists.
Note: DDC keycaps are "choc spaced" meaning they do not share the same outer dimensions of a typical Cherry MX keycap. The switch spacing should ideally be 17(h)x18(w) on your keyboard. Choc spaced keycaps will fit on a traditional MX spaced keyboard, but the gaps between the keycaps will not be uniform.

DDCs are so much more natural than the MBKs I had before. They’re a bit tight on the switches, but how often are you really swapping your Choc keycaps anyway? Only thing to bear in mind is that, with how tight they fit, if your switches are soldered in then you may risk breaking the joints when removing the keycaps. But for how much of an improvement these are for comfort, it’s worth it.
Note that they are not vertically symmetrical - there is a correct orientation. The bottom edge of the keycap has a slightly longer slope.
i'm using choc v1 switches (from keebd) in a lily58. It has an acrylic top plate. Bought 3 packs of these for it but turns out they won't go into the switches because the caps will hit the top plate before 'digging' into the switch to catch. So now i've got 30 unused caps sitting around doing nothing. You can see in the photo how the legs are very short compared to the chocfox ones which i'm currently using but finding a handful of them not staying on the board but the rest seems to be okay (thus, the reason why i bought these caps to replace them).
It's a nice profile, for me much more comfortable than stock Glove80 keycaps. It does not mean, that original are bad, it's just my preference.
I'm really happy with this purchase.
