A heavy, brush-like italic with rounded terminals and a slightly irregular, hand-drawn edge. Strokes are broadly uniform with softened corners, and letterforms lean consistently forward for a fast, lively rhythm. Proportions are compact and punchy, with wide counters kept small by the thick strokes; curves are generous and shapes feel slightly squeezed and dynamic rather than rigidly geometric. Overall spacing and widths vary naturally across glyphs, reinforcing an informal, marker-script feel while remaining legible in short lines.
Best suited to display use where a lively, hand-made presence is desired—posters, social graphics, packaging callouts, labels, stickers, and merch. It performs well for short headlines and emphatic phrases, and is less ideal for long paragraphs or small UI text due to its dense, brushy weight.
The font conveys an upbeat, approachable tone with a hint of vintage sign-painting and comic energy. Its bold, slanted gestures feel spontaneous and human, suggesting informality, motion, and friendly emphasis rather than restraint or refinement.
The design appears intended to mimic quick, confident brush lettering in a bold, attention-grabbing style. It prioritizes personality and impact—forward motion, softened edges, and natural width variation—over strict regularity, making it effective for informal branding and expressive display typography.
Capitals are simplified and sturdy, while lowercase forms show more personality and bounce, especially in rounded letters and diagonals. Numerals follow the same chunky, forward-leaning construction and read best when given room to breathe, as the dense strokes can visually fill in at smaller sizes.
