A condensed, hand-drawn print style with sturdy, low-contrast strokes and mostly upright construction. The letterforms have squared-off curves and slightly flattened terminals, with a tall x-height that keeps lowercase prominent. Distress and ink-wear texture appears irregularly across glyphs, producing chipped edges and occasional interior scuffing; despite this, the overall skeleton stays consistent and readable. Widths vary from glyph to glyph, creating a subtly uneven rhythm that feels deliberately imperfect rather than strictly geometric.
Works best for short-to-medium display text where the distressed texture can be appreciated: posters, packaging, café or craft branding, album/cover art, and editorial headings. It can also add personality to pull quotes or captions, but the uneven texture may feel busy at very small sizes or in long passages.
The texture and slight wobble give the font a gritty, handmade attitude—like stamped ink on rough paper or worn signage. It reads casual and characterful, with a lightly rebellious, DIY tone that suits imperfect, analog aesthetics.
Likely designed to deliver a straightforward, condensed printed skeleton while adding an intentionally worn, ink-distressed surface for an analog, handmade feel. The tall lowercase and simple forms aim to preserve legibility while the rough texture supplies personality and atmosphere.
The distress is not uniform: some characters show heavier erosion than others, which can add expressive variation but also creates a more animated color across words. Uppercase forms feel bold and poster-like, while the lowercase retains a simple, printed structure rather than cursive connectivity.
