Distressed Ryma 5 is a very bold, normal width, high contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'EquipCondensed' by Hoftype, 'Averta PE' and 'Averta Standard PE' by Intelligent Design, 'Fact' by ParaType, and 'Pemusiran' by Wildan Type (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, rounded sans with chunky proportions and strongly irregular, roughened edges that mimic dry-brush or worn ink coverage. Strokes are thick and simplified, with occasional tapering and small bite-like gaps along contours that create a printed-and-distressed texture. Curves are broadly drawn (notably in O/C/G), counters are generally open and legible, and terminals read as blunt with uneven finish. Overall spacing feels slightly inconsistent by design, reinforcing a handmade rhythm rather than a mechanically uniform one.
Best suited to short, bold settings where the distressed texture can be appreciated—posters, large headlines, event promos, merch graphics, and packaging labels. It can also work for punchy pull quotes or display copy in branding that leans handmade or gritty, but the rough edge detail may overwhelm at very small sizes or in dense paragraphs.
The texture and weight give the face a gritty, DIY energy—confident, a little messy, and deliberately imperfect. It reads as casual and expressive, with a poster-like punch that suggests street graphics, craft signage, or rough screenprint aesthetics.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a handcrafted, worn finish—combining simple, friendly letter shapes with deliberate edge breakup to simulate brush lettering or imperfect printing.
Uppercase and lowercase share the same rugged brush/ink breakup, keeping the texture consistent across lines of text. Numerals are bold and attention-grabbing, with simplified forms that favor impact over precision at smaller sizes.
