A heavy, rounded sans with broad, blocky proportions and confident, upright stance. Curves are generous and geometric, counters are relatively compact, and terminals tend to feel blunt and weighty. The standout feature is a consistent distressed texture—small irregular “chips” and voids within the strokes—creating a worn, stamped look while preserving strong overall legibility at display sizes.
Works best for display typography where texture can be appreciated: posters, event graphics, packaging, headlines, and social media promos. The distressed finish also suits themed applications like vintage-inspired branding, casual food and beverage labels, sports or team-style graphics, and playful merchandising. For longer passages or small UI text, the heavy weight and internal distressing may feel busy, so it’s best reserved for short phrases and titles.
This typeface projects a loud, playful energy with a slightly gritty edge. The distressed inking and chunky silhouettes give it a poster-ready, streetwise tone that feels more fun than formal, and more expressive than neutral.
The design appears intended for maximum visual impact with a friendly, rounded base skeleton, then tempered with a deliberate distressed treatment to add character and texture. It aims to read quickly at large sizes while feeling handmade or printed rather than pristine and corporate.
The texture is embedded across letters and numerals in a consistent pattern, giving a cohesive “worn ink” impression. Uppercase forms feel especially sturdy and compact, while lowercase maintains the same chunky rhythm for a unified, display-forward voice.
