A rough, hand-rendered text face with softly ragged outlines and slightly swollen strokes that suggest inky marker or worn print. The letterforms are largely monolinear but show visible wobble and small bite-like notches along curves and terminals, creating an irregular edge texture. Counters are rounded and sometimes uneven, and spacing feels a touch loose and variable, contributing to a casual, imperfect rhythm. Uppercase forms read simple and sturdy, while the lowercase leans friendly and informal, with occasional idiosyncratic shapes that reinforce the handmade character.
Works best for short to medium-length text where texture is desirable: posters, cover design, album art, event graphics, packaging, and themed display lines. It can also handle brief paragraphs for a handcrafted, informal voice, especially when paired with a cleaner companion for supporting copy.
The overall tone is scrappy and approachable—more zine and DIY than polished editorial. Its irregular texture adds a lived-in, analog feel that can read edgy or humorous depending on context, with a slightly spooky or offbeat energy when set in larger sizes.
Likely designed to emulate imperfect, tactile lettering and worn printing—capturing the look of ink on paper with uneven pressure and roughened edges. The goal appears to be adding personality and atmosphere through consistent distressing while keeping the underlying forms readable.
The distressed contouring is consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals, giving blocks of text a lightly mottled color on the page. The sample text shows good recognizability at paragraph sizes, while the rough edges and variable spacing become a stronger stylistic feature as size increases.
