A slanted, brush-pen style print with rounded terminals and softly swelling strokes that mimic pressure changes. Letterforms are compact with a steady, slightly bouncy baseline rhythm and generally open counters, keeping words readable even at heavier stroke weight. Curves are dominant, corners are eased, and many capitals use simplified, single-stroke constructions; the overall texture is dark and even, with modest width variation and clear separation between characters.
Works best for short to medium text where personality is desired: headlines, posters, packaging labels, social graphics, and casual branding. It can also suit pull quotes or section headers when paired with a calmer text face for longer reading.
The font feels informal and energetic, like quick marker lettering for headlines or notes. Its forward lean and thick, smooth strokes give it an upbeat, approachable tone with a hint of sporty confidence.
Designed to capture the look of confident hand lettering made with a brush marker—cleaner than raw script, but more expressive than a standard italic. The emphasis appears to be on punchy readability and a friendly, contemporary handwritten voice.
Numbers are sturdy and highly legible, matching the same rounded, brushed treatment as the letters. The italic slant is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, producing a cohesive, fast-written flow without connecting strokes.
