A heavy, slanted display face with chunky forms and a brush-painted construction. Strokes show uneven edges and scattered speckling, creating a consistent worn/printed texture across letters and figures. Terminals are mostly rounded and blunt, with simplified geometry and open, readable counters that hold up well at larger sizes. The overall rhythm is energetic and slightly irregular, like bold marker lettering pressed onto absorbent paper.
Works best for short, high-impact settings such as posters, headlines, event promos, packaging, and merchandise graphics where the textured ink effect can be appreciated. It can also suit sports or casual brand marks that want bold energy and a weathered, print-made feel; for longer text, it’s more effective in larger sizes with generous spacing.
The font projects a bold, playful attitude with a vintage, street-level grit. Its roughened texture and forward lean give it motion and a hands-on, DIY character, making it feel informal, expressive, and attention-seeking rather than polished.
Designed to deliver a bold, hand-painted impression with built-in wear and printing artifacts, combining strong legibility with an intentionally rough, tactile surface. The goal appears to be an expressive display style that feels crafted and lively rather than mechanically perfect.
Texture is integrated into the letterforms rather than added as an external effect, so the distressed look remains consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals. The slant and compact joins create dense word shapes, while the rounded corners keep it friendly despite the heavy weight.
