Distressed Sevy 2 is a very bold, normal width, high contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Jostern' by EMME grafica, 'Giriton' by Hazztype, 'Grold Rounded' by Typesketchbook, and 'Coco Gothic Pro' by Zetafonts (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, rounded sans with chunky silhouettes and deliberately roughened contours. Strokes show mottled texture and irregular edges, as if stamped or printed with worn ink, creating a lively, uneven perimeter around otherwise simple letterforms. Counters are compact and often slightly distorted, and joins/terminals tend toward soft corners rather than sharp cuts. Overall spacing feels steady, while individual glyphs vary subtly in shape and mass, reinforcing the handmade, imperfect rhythm.
Best suited to display settings where texture can be appreciated: posters, bold headlines, event flyers, packaging, labels, and social graphics. It can also work for short bursts of copy such as pull quotes or badges, especially when you want an intentionally imperfect, printed look.
The font reads as energetic and cheeky, with a gritty, analog feel that suggests DIY printing, poster ink, or a well-worn stamp. Its rounded proportions keep the tone friendly, while the distressed texture adds attitude and a slightly rebellious edge.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with friendly, rounded forms while simulating the artifacts of rough printing—ink spread, worn edges, and uneven fill—to evoke an authentic, hands-on character.
The texture is prominent even at larger sizes, with visible speckling and edge breakup that becomes a defining feature. Numerals and capitals maintain the same robust, rounded construction, supporting consistent headline color and strong figure presence.
