A heavy, rounded, hand-drawn display face with thick strokes and visibly irregular contours. Letterforms feel brush- or marker-made, with soft corners, occasional swelling/flattening in strokes, and lightly mottled edges that suggest uneven inking or worn printing. Counters are compact and sometimes slightly lopsided, contributing to a lively rhythm, while overall silhouettes stay simple and bold for strong color on the page.
Best suited to short, high-impact text where texture and personality are an asset: posters, cover art, stickers, merch graphics, playful packaging, and bold social graphics. It also works well for themed titles and captions that want a handmade, worn-ink look rather than a clean geometric finish.
The font reads informal and energetic, with a messy, tactile texture that leans crafty and rebellious rather than polished. Its chunky shapes and rough finish give it a humorous, street-level attitude—friendly, loud, and a bit scrappy.
Designed to mimic a thick brush/marker hand with a deliberately distressed print texture, prioritizing personality and tactile presence over precision. The goal appears to be an approachable, energetic display voice that feels crafted and slightly roughened, as if stamped or printed under imperfect conditions.
The distressed texture is consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals, helping the set feel cohesive even as individual glyphs vary in stroke endings and edge roughness. The bold mass and softened geometry keep it readable at headline sizes, while the intentional irregularities become more apparent as size increases.
