A compact, slanted sans with heavy strokes and a distinctly brush-like texture. Letterforms are built from rounded, simplified shapes with softened corners and slightly uneven edges that suggest dry ink or painted strokes. Curves are full and open, counters stay clear at larger sizes, and terminals tend to taper subtly rather than ending in crisp geometric cuts. Spacing and widths vary modestly from glyph to glyph, giving the alphabet a lively rhythm while maintaining consistent overall proportions.
Best suited to display uses where texture and motion are assets—posters, punchy headlines, branding accents, packaging, and merch graphics. It can work for short subheads or callouts, but the rough stroke edges and compact proportions are most effective when given enough size and breathing room.
The font reads as casual and hand-made, with a confident, punchy presence. Its textured strokes and forward slant add momentum, creating a sporty, poster-like tone that feels approachable rather than formal. The overall effect is expressive and slightly rough, evoking vintage print and marker signage.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, hand-rendered look with the convenience and consistency of a typeface. By combining rounded sans structures with brush-textured strokes and a steady slant, it aims to communicate energy and informality while staying legible in attention-grabbing settings.
Uppercase forms are sturdy and simplified, while the lowercase keeps single-storey, handwritten-like constructions that reinforce the informal character. Numerals match the same brushy weight and slant, helping mixed alphanumeric settings feel cohesive. The texture can become prominent in smaller sizes, where the rough edges contribute more character than precision.
