A heavy, compact sans with rounded silhouettes and blunt terminals, rendered with irregular, distressed edges that mimic worn ink or rough stamping. Strokes are generally even in weight, with subtle waviness along stems and curves that adds texture without collapsing the counters. The letters feel sturdy and blocky, with open apertures kept relatively clear for the weight, and a consistent, slightly soft-cornered geometry across caps, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to display applications where a textured, high-impact voice is desired—posters, bold headlines, labels, packaging, and brand marks that want a rugged or vintage feel. It also works well for short bursts of copy such as badges, signage, and merch graphics where the distressed edge can be appreciated.
The overall tone is bold and tactile, evoking printmaking, rubber-stamp impressions, and aged packaging. Its roughened contour gives it a handmade, workwear character that reads as informal and gritty rather than sleek or corporate.
The design appears intended to deliver the punch and clarity of a straightforward bold sans while layering in a deliberately worn, analog texture. It aims for strong presence and quick readability with an expressive, printed-from-physical-type personality.
The distressing appears systematic and consistent across glyphs, suggesting an intentional texture layer rather than random noise. In text, the strong color holds well at display sizes, while the rough perimeter becomes a primary visual feature that can dominate at smaller sizes or in long passages.
