Year of Snake - Armor - Xuanwu / US-ANSI - Akko Cobras Switch / Germany Warehouse

Spring mount returns — with a new approach. We’ve replaced the traditional aluminum + spring system with silicone pillars, achieving a similar dynamic typing feel that’s smoother, more controlled, and less extreme. Inspired by the Year of the Snake zodiac — a symbol of wisdom, strategy, and transformation — this collection merges mythology with modern engineering.

The series features three distinct models: Year of Snake – Armor – Xuanwu: A deep blue tribute to the legendary guardian deity. Year of Snake – Armor – Rod of Asclepius: A white-and-blue design honoring the serpent staff of healing. Year of Snake – Armor – Green Snake: A vibrant teal embodiment of strength and renewal.

Each keyboard is designed with an Alice ergonomic layout for natural typing comfort, side lighting reminiscent of serpent scales, and illuminated front corners that elevate its presence. Every set includes a matching acrylic wrist rest, a themed etched backplate, and a quick-swap structure for effortless assembly and customization. The Akko Year of Snake series is more than a keyboard — it’s a celebration of design, craftsmanship, and transformation.
