Distressed Fubuy 7 is a very bold, normal width, high contrast, italic, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Avenir Next' and 'Avenir Next Paneuropean' by Linotype and 'Artico' by cretype (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, right-slanted display face with compact proportions, high-contrast stroke transitions, and a punchy, forward-leaning rhythm. Letterforms are built from broad, simplified shapes with slightly condensed counters and firm terminals, then intentionally disrupted by rough, chipped textures and occasional interior nicks that simulate worn ink or abrasive printing. Curves are full and muscular, while diagonals and joins stay sharp enough to keep the silhouettes crisp at larger sizes despite the distressing.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as posters, headlines, event graphics, apparel, stickers, and logo-style wordmarks where the rough texture can read as a deliberate material effect. It works particularly well when you want movement and toughness—sports-inspired branding, music and nightlife promotions, or retro-styled packaging accents—while longer text will benefit from generous size and spacing to keep the distressing from overwhelming legibility.
The overall tone feels bold and kinetic, like vintage sports lettering run through a rough screen-print or weathered sign paint. The distressing adds grit and attitude, shifting the voice toward rebellious, handmade, and streetwise rather than polished or corporate.
This font appears designed to deliver maximum impact with an italic, muscular silhouette while adding a built-in distressed layer that implies age, friction, and real-world printing. The goal is a ready-made “lived-in” look that feels fast, loud, and tactile without needing additional effects.
Texture is applied consistently across caps, lowercase, and numerals, creating a cohesive “printed and scuffed” surface. The italic slant and heavy mass make word shapes read as fast and assertive, while the irregular wear introduces visual noise that becomes more prominent as size decreases.
