This typeface has a hand-printed, inked look with irregular contours and subtly wobbling stroke paths. Terminals appear blunted and slightly torn, creating a consistent rough-edge texture across caps, lowercase, and numerals. Proportions lean toward compact, sturdy shapes with gently simplified curves and a generally even stroke presence, while small variations in width and interior counters add a natural, imperfect rhythm. Overall spacing reads straightforward and text-friendly, with enough rugged detail to remain visible at display sizes.
It works well for headlines and short text where a rugged, handcrafted mood is desired—such as posters, event branding, packaging, and label-style graphics. In longer passages it remains fairly readable, but the textured edges will be most effective at moderate-to-large sizes where the distress detail can be appreciated without turning into visual noise.
The font conveys a gritty, analog tone reminiscent of worn stamping, rough brush/marker lettering, or distressed print. Its steady, upright posture keeps it readable, while the uneven edges add a lived-in, handmade character that feels informal and tactile.
The design appears intended to deliver a dependable, legible alphabet with a deliberately weathered, ink-on-paper texture. It aims to bridge straightforward, classic letterforms with a tactile distressed finish suitable for thematic and illustrative typography.
Uppercase forms are bold and poster-like, while the lowercase maintains a sturdy, workmanlike presence with textured edges that stay consistent from glyph to glyph. The distressing is controlled rather than chaotic, giving the face a deliberate “printed through wear” effect instead of pure scribble.
