A rough, distressed hand-rendered print style with compact proportions and a lively, uneven rhythm. Strokes are heavy and irregular, with ragged edges, occasional ink-bleed cavities, and small notches that create a worn, stamped look. Curves and counters are slightly inconsistent from glyph to glyph, and terminals tend to end bluntly rather than crisply, reinforcing a tactile, handmade feel. Overall spacing is fairly tight, with narrow letterforms that stay readable while emphasizing texture over refinement.
Best suited to display applications such as posters, headlines, packaging, and cover graphics where the distressed texture can be appreciated. It also works well for themed branding, event materials, and short pull quotes that benefit from a gritty, handmade tone rather than pristine typographic polish.
The font conveys a gritty, analog personality—suggestive of aged printing, DIY signage, and imperfect ink on paper. Its distressed texture adds attitude and tension, making it feel raw, quirky, and slightly ominous without becoming fully decorative.
The design appears intended to emulate imperfect, inked lettering—like a worn stamp or rough brush/marker writing—delivering strong presence with intentional irregularities. Its goal is more about character and texture than strict uniformity, lending an authentic, lived-in look to titles and branding.
Text samples show the distressed pattern repeating consistently across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, producing strong color on the page but with visible speckling and breakups inside strokes. The narrow set and dense stroke weight can reduce clarity at small sizes, while the texture becomes a primary feature at display sizes.
