Key Features
The Drop Signature Series Captain Keyboard blends function and style with a unique Bauhaus-inspired design and a heavy-duty build. Crafted with an earthy gray aluminum case and MiTo-designed keycaps, this compact keyboard captures the essence of German design from the ‘50s and ‘60s, making it an elegant centerpiece for any workspace. Part of Drop’s exclusive Signature Series, the Captain is fully assembled, so it’s ready to use straight out of the box—no assembly required.
Weighing in at nearly 3 pounds, the Captain’s aluminum frame offers stability and a premium typing feel that sets it apart from lighter plastic keyboards. Outfitted with Halo True switches, the Captain delivers a satisfying tactile bump with each keystroke, perfect for those who enjoy a tactile typing experience. For those seeking customization, its hot-swappable PCB allows you to easily change switches without soldering.
The Captain also includes customizable RGB backlighting with a variety of color settings, providing a dynamic look while you type. USB-C connectors on both sides allow flexible placement in any setup, making the Captain as functional as it is visually striking.
