Distressed Vili 4 is a very bold, narrow, high contrast, upright, short x-height font visually similar to 'PhotoWall' and 'Timeout' by DearType, 'Goodrich' by Hendra Pratama, 'Antry Sans' by Mans Greback, 'Rydero' by Maulana Creative, and 'Banana Bread Font' by TypoGraphicDesign (names referenced only for comparison).

A chunky, hand-rendered display face with thick strokes and compact proportions. Letterforms feel brush- or marker-made, with softened corners, wavy sides, and visibly irregular edges that mimic rough printing or dry ink. Counters are small and sometimes pinched, and stroke joins vary subtly from glyph to glyph, creating a lively, uneven rhythm while keeping overall forms clear and upright.
Best suited to short, prominent text where the distressed texture can be appreciated—posters, headlines, packaging, stickers, and merch graphics. It also works well for themed titles in games or events where an informal, hand-printed voice is desired.
The texture and wobble give it a casual, scrappy energy—part DIY poster, part stamped label. It reads as friendly and imperfect rather than polished, with a bold, attention-grabbing presence that leans toward playful grit.
The design appears intended to capture the look of bold hand lettering reproduced through imperfect printing—retaining rough edges, uneven stroke weight, and compact forms to feel tactile and expressive at display sizes.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent rugged texture, and the numerals match the same inked, slightly lumpy construction. Spacing looks intentionally loose and organic, with shapes that feel more drawn than engineered.
