FIrst week's review:
Overall, this is just a very simple and standard sleeve. I use it for my Poker II. However, I found a severe problem with the dyes they used. Because my keyboard is white, I have been frequently finding black spots on parts of it (especially the high wear spots such as the corners). SO, if you have a white keyboard, this may not be the best option for you!

Pantsu_BearTry washing your sleeves or leave it soaked in detergent and water overnight. Maybe it'll remove the excess dyes. Sad to hear that some if it got into your keyboard.

Pantsu_BearWere you able to clean the black spots off of the case/keycaps?
Also did you find a solution to the dye rubbing?

SmosephSoap and water would do (just a bit)
Tough, it annoyed the hell out of me so I just put my HHKB Pro 2 in it now ( a black keyboard)

Pantsu_BearHm so you wouldn't recommend getting this for a white POK3R? That's disappointing to hear, I guess I'll have to look for another sleeve

SmosephI wonder if putting the sleeve through the washing machine on COLD would fix this issue.. of course I take no responsibility for you ruining your sleeve but just a thought. Probably hang dry or very light cycle in the drier would prevent it from shrinking.

MartinnHmm, I'll handwash it first, and if that doesn't work I'll just give it a try in the washing machine. Thanks for the idea! If bad things happen I'll report back

spartan7I haven't gotten the sleeve yet, I also don't have my white keyboard yet haha. I'm going to try handwashing it first because it says you can do that in the description and see if that'll prevent/solve it!
