On July 20, 2024, KIBU Corporation, the authorized Japanese distributor of the Wobkey Rainy75, responded to GreenKeys regarding the timing of the Rainy75’s restocking.
According to the company, Wobkey Rainy75 is scheduled to be restocked in “early August 2024,” The company plans to restock the Wobkey Rainy75 in “early August 2024.
Rainy75 is a mechanical keyboard with an appealing rain-like keystroke sound.
The product became popular because of its full aluminum alloy body, yet it can be purchased for a bargain price of 20,000 yen, and because Makoto Shinkai, a film director, posted it on SNS.
In addition, the recent Amazon Prime Day sale was very popular, with all models discounted by 20%.
In the Amazon Prime sale, Lite systems with interchangeable switch plates have become popular and are not in stock at the time of writing.
Lite series can reproduce pseudo-Japanese layout by replacing the switch plate.
The KIBU store is almost out of stock, except for a few Pro/Color products.
The Rainy75 can be recommended as a first mechanical keyboard.
I look forward to the restocking in early August.
In addition, PC Shop Arc will start handling them in August, and they will be displayed in actual stores.
Is this the third store after Yousha Kobo and PC Ones? I am very happy!
Furthermore, they are planning to increase the number of stores handling the product from the end of August, so you may be able to have a “typing experience like the sound of rain” in your neighborhood.
