A chunky, hand-drawn sans with irregular, brushy stroke edges and frequent interior nicks and speckling that create a worn print texture. Letterforms are mostly rounded with simplified geometry, uneven terminals, and subtly inconsistent stroke widths that mimic marker or dry-brush ink. Counters are generally open and clear, while texture intrudes in places for a deliberately distressed finish. Overall spacing reads slightly loose and casual, with an organic rhythm across upper- and lowercase plus numerals.
Works best for short-to-medium headlines where the distressed texture can read clearly, such as posters, event flyers, packaging labels, and merchandise graphics. It also fits social media tiles, DIY craft branding, and signage-style callouts where an analog, printed feel is desired.
The texture and imperfect outlines give the font a gritty, DIY personality that feels lively rather than severe. It reads as informal and approachable, with a crafty, hand-printed energy suited to playful or rugged branding. The distressed fill adds a vintage/analog tone reminiscent of screen print, stamped packaging, or worn signage.
Likely designed to deliver a bold, hand-inked look with built-in wear and irregularity, giving designers an instant distressed aesthetic without additional texture overlays. The consistent roughness across the set suggests an intentional screen-printed or dry-brush concept aimed at expressive display typography.
Uppercase forms are broad and friendly with soft corners, while lowercase maintains a simple, handwritten structure with short ascenders and a compact, easygoing stance. Numerals carry the same distressed ink pattern, helping headings and short callouts feel cohesive across mixed content.
