A compact, hand-drawn display face with thick, slightly tapered strokes and softly irregular outlines. The forms show consistent roughening along edges and occasional interior chatter, suggesting ink drag or worn print. Bowls are generally rounded and open, terminals skew toward blunt and slightly flared, and counters remain clear despite the texture. Spacing feels lively and uneven in a controlled way, creating an animated rhythm across words while maintaining legibility at larger sizes.
Well-suited for short, punchy text where texture is part of the message—posters, brand marks, product packaging, labels, and social graphics. It also fits themed applications such as craft goods, outdoor or workwear branding, and retro-inspired signage, especially when set with generous tracking or at display sizes to let the distressed details read clearly.
The font communicates a crafty, tactile tone—like screen print, stamped packaging, or marker lettering that has been distressed by time. Its friendly shapes keep it approachable, while the gritty texture adds attitude and a vintage, workwear sensibility.
The design appears intended to emulate a hand-inked or printed look with deliberate wear, combining bold, compact letterforms with a controlled rough texture to deliver personality and immediacy in display typography.
Uppercase letters have a sturdy, poster-like presence, while the lowercase keeps the same roughened texture with a casual, handwritten energy. Numerals are simple and bold, with the same worn edge treatment, making them visually consistent in headings and badges.
