Clack Factory Keycaps (a.k.a. Clacks, Clarks, CC's) are the first artisan keycaps to be created. Hand-carved by ClickClack and his Gnomes, each keycap is a specific and unique color. Typical variants include Skulls, Ogres, 420s, Splats, Birds, Vaders, WASD Clusters, and Arrow Clusters.

Clack Factory - The History

Identifying Marks

Clack uses a combination of dots and holes on various keycaps to denote what event they're from, or if they're a special version. Below you can see the different markings.

Skulls

Available in MX, Topre, and Buckling Spring (and BMX), Skulls are Clack's most iconic sculpt. Skulls can come in Single Color, Bi-Color, or Tri-Color. Bi-Colors come in two types: a solid color with different colored eyes (Mr. Friday, Eyeland) or have a different face color (Drunken, Enviro). Tri-Color skulls are usually split into three colors, the body having one color, the face another, and the eyes have a third color (Salute, Miz Kite). Other tri-colors have a body with layered colors (Candy Corn) or mismatched eyes (3D).

Tri-Color Skulls

Zwei-Color Skulls

Solid Color Skulls

Ogres

Available only in MX, Ogres were released in Oct. 2013 and have since come in a variety of colorways.

Birds

Available only in MX. Only two different colorways have been released, as seen below.

DarkSide

Available only in MX, the Vader is one of Clack's earlier works, of which only a few exist in the colorways below.

Splats

Available in MX and Topre, Splats have come in a variety of colors and layouts, including Esc, WASD, Arrow Keys, and Modifiers.

420

Available only in MX, 420s are Clack's ode to Cannabis. They've been released in a variety of colorways, the text below provides explanation into the various styles.

Toast - Bold, simple leaf (shorter leaves)

O'Natural - More realistic leaf (longer leaves)

Sticky – Solid color with engraved leaf

Sticky Icky – The body has one color with an engraved leaf infilled with a different color

Sticky Icky Icky – The body has one color, the engraving has the same color and isn’t infilled. Then the leaf is another color.

Good Times – The body has one color, the engraved infilled outline a second, and the leaf itself a third

Many of these colorways came in both Toast and O'Natural, these are just Clack's official pictures.
