A rough, brush-drawn sans with jagged contours and visibly torn stroke edges. Letterforms show sharp terminals, uneven stroke buildup, and occasional interior nicks that mimic dry-brush or worn ink coverage. Curves and bowls are slightly warped, with inconsistent counters and a lively baseline that keeps the texture prominent in running text. Capitals and numerals are bold and graphic, while lowercase forms remain compact and irregular, preserving the distressed rhythm across the set.
Best suited to display use where its rough edges can be appreciated—posters, music and nightlife graphics, apparel branding, and title treatments for games or short-form video. It can work for short bursts of copy (taglines, pull quotes) when set with generous tracking and line spacing to keep the texture from crowding.
The font conveys a gritty, rebellious tone with a handcrafted immediacy, like hurried marker lettering or a screenprint pulled with imperfect ink. Its texture reads as energetic and confrontational, leaning toward underground, DIY aesthetics rather than polished editorial refinement.
Designed to deliver an intentionally imperfect, ink-worn look that adds attitude and urgency to otherwise simple letterforms. The goal appears to be high-impact readability paired with strong surface texture for expressive branding and titling.
Texture density varies from glyph to glyph, which enhances the handmade feel but can create darker spots in words where strokes overlap or counters tighten. The distressed edges remain visible even at moderate sizes, functioning as a defining stylistic feature rather than subtle patina.
