Designed with a durable aluminum frame and genuine leather or wood, the Retro Classic is a beautiful addition to any workspace.
The Retro Classic has round center-lit mechanical keys tuned to be tactile and “clicky”, reminiscent of the vintage typewriter.
Achieve an optimal wrist position by adjusting the keyboard tilt angle. Simply rotate the rear pillar-style feet to set the keyboard height.
Made to last with a built-in high-capacity 5,000mAh Li-ion rechargeable battery with up to months of usage time (depending on backlight usage).
Simultaneously connect up to 3 devices via Bluetooth. When USB mode is selected, simply connect the included USB-C cable to your device and type away.
The keycaps are designed so that the backlight shines through the center of the keys, illuminating them evenly with white backlight (orange for Posh only) in static on/off mode.
The Retro Classic is built to fully support both Mac & PC interfaces and comes with an extra set of easily swappable PC keycaps.

Couldn’t have found a more aesthetic keyboard that fits my style preference. It’s very sleek, satisfying to not just type with but stare at. I have received many compliments at work.
I've owned the Retro Classic in elwood for one year now. I went through two other keyboards with failing keys and non-working spacebars before I decided to invest on something that would hopefully work for a longer period of time and look great on my desk. This keyboard is a gentle giant. It's definitely heavy. However, replying to emails is almost a joy with the tactile feeling of the keys reminding me of old typewriters. I also love the lighting detail whenever I turn on the keyboard. Besides the aesthetics, my favorite feature is the fact that I can use my keyboard on my Windows laptop and then -- from across the room -- switch it over to use on my Mac desktop. This is such a great function if you have more than one computer in your work/living space.
