It’s the perfect combination of compact design, quality construction, visual aesthetics, and fully customizable functions. Innovatively adopting the full metal modular structure, the KiiBOOM Loop 65 feels incredibly solid while being able to break the tradition that metal keyboards usually only have one plain color look, bringing the desktop aesthetics to the next level.
Get ready to enjoy the miracle when feature-loaded customization meets aesthetic innovation, the KiiBOOM Loop 65 is designed to revolutionize your desktop typing experience.
The essence of the design philosophy for KiiBOOM Loop 65 is innovation. Inherited from our first full metal keyboard that utilizes the mortise and tenon structure, the Loop 65 uses a similar concept by making the keyboard several constructible metal brick pieces, while combining the trendy gasket structure for a solid quality base yet soft-bouncing tactile typing experience.
Coming with the PORON sandwich foam, IXPE switch padding, PET noise cancellation pad, POROM bottom foam, and PET isolation bottom pad, the Loop 65 effectively eliminates the hallow sound/ cavity noise to the greatest extent while typing. Now typing on Loop 65 is not only a tactile pleasure, but also an enjoyable auditory experience!
Traditional aluminum mechanical keyboard prefers to use only one color to simplify the manufacturing process and reduce costs. Additionally, multi-color metal treatments (such as anodizing, painting, etc.) require higher technical standards and additional steps, which can increase production costs and time. However, we at KiiBOOM don’t want to compromise the desktop aesthetics and high quality while designing the Loop 65. Every block piece is meticulously moduled piece by piece to ensure each of the blocks is precise and smooth, resulting in a solid, smooth, and beautiful aluminum multi-color blocking body design.
The KiiBOOM Loop65 is equipped with a flex cut FR4 plate, designed to provide a tactile and bouncy typing experience. The flex cuts strategically placed on the plate allow for a slight flex during typing, giving each keystroke a responsive, springy feel. This feature enhances the overall typing dynamics, making the keyboard feel more lively and interactive. The FR4 material, known for its strength and flexibility, ensures durability while contributing to a comfortable and enjoyable typing experience. This design choice caters to those who appreciate a tactile and responsive keyboard that provides feedback with every press, making it ideal for typists and gamers who seek precision and comfort.

The PBT dye-sublimation gradient keycaps on the KiiBOOM Loop65 are designed to combine aesthetics with functionality. PBT (polybutylene terephthalate) is a highly durable material that resists wear, shine, and fading, ensuring your keycaps remain pristine over time. The dye-sublimation process embeds the legends deep into the keycap, preventing them from wearing off even with heavy use. The gradient design adds a visually striking element to the keyboard, transitioning smoothly from one color to another, creating a unique and vibrant look. These keycaps not only enhance the visual appeal of your keyboard but also provide a comfortable, textured feel that improves typing accuracy and comfort.
The south-facing RGB LEDs on the KiiBOOM Loop65 provide vibrant and customizable lighting effects that enhance the aesthetics of your setup. Unlike traditional north-facing LEDs, south-facing LEDs ensure better illumination of the key legends, especially with Cherry-profile keycaps. This orientation reduces interference and ensures that the lighting is bright and even across all keys. With a wide range of colors and effects to choose from, you can personalize your keyboard's appearance to match your style or mood. The customizable RGB lighting not only adds a visual flair but also improves visibility in low-light conditions, making it both a practical and stylish feature.
