A slanted, outlined display face built from a single outer contour with an open interior. Letterforms are narrow and slightly irregular, with rounded corners and a gently wavy stroke edge that gives a hand-drawn feel. Curves are smooth and buoyant, joins are soft rather than sharp, and proportions vary subtly from glyph to glyph, creating an informal rhythm. The outline thickness is fairly consistent, keeping the texture light while the oblique angle adds forward motion.
Best suited for short, attention-grabbing text such as headlines, posters, packaging callouts, and logo wordmarks where the outlined look can stand out. It also works well for playful branding, event graphics, and social media titles, especially when paired with solid-filled companion type for body copy.
The overall tone is lively and approachable, with a retro comic/marker energy. Its airy outline construction feels lighthearted and friendly rather than technical, making it read as casual and expressive.
This font appears designed to deliver a light, energetic outline style with a hand-drawn personality—combining an oblique stance and narrow proportions to create quick visual impact without heavy fill.
Because the letters are only outlined, the font relies on size and contrast with the background to stay legible; it reads best when given enough scale and spacing. The numerals and capitals share the same playful, slightly uneven contouring, reinforcing a cohesive hand-made character across the set.
