A rough, inked text face with subtly irregular contours and worn-in edges that suggest imperfect printing or hand-rendered strokes. Letterforms are mostly upright with straightforward, readable construction, but the outlines show consistent wobble, occasional nicks, and slight swelling at joins that create a natural, variable rhythm. Counters stay open and clear, while terminals often look softened or lightly chipped, producing a textured silhouette without collapsing legibility in paragraph settings.
Works well for posters, packaging, menu typography, and branding systems that want an analog, imperfect print flavor. It can also serve in editorial pull quotes or short passages where a tactile, distressed texture adds atmosphere without overpowering readability.
The overall tone is rustic and human, with a workshop/DIY feel and a lightly gritty, timeworn character. It reads friendly and informal rather than aggressive, adding texture and personality while still feeling grounded enough for longer lines of text.
Likely designed to deliver a familiar, readable text structure while layering in a dry-ink/rough-print texture for character. The goal appears to be an approachable distressed look that feels handmade and slightly vintage, suitable for display and supporting text alike.
Texture is distributed fairly evenly across caps, lowercase, and numerals, so the distressed effect feels intentional and repeatable rather than random. Numerals and uppercase forms retain strong, simple shapes, helping maintain clarity when the font is used for labels or short informational content.
