An expressive, brush-driven italic with tapered strokes and clear high–low contrast that suggests a pointed brush or dry marker. Letterforms are narrow and slanted, with lively, irregular contours and occasional rough edges that create a worn, distressed texture. Terminals often finish in sharp flicks or soft blots, and curves show subtle wobble that reinforces the handmade rhythm. Uppercase forms are compact and punchy, while lowercase has a modest x-height and quick, calligraphic joins, keeping text lively but not overly uniform.
Well-suited to display settings where texture and motion are desirable, such as posters, event graphics, album artwork, packaging labels, and apparel or sticker designs. It works best at medium to large sizes where the distressed edges and stroke taper remain clear and intentional.
The font conveys a bold, street-level energy—part brush-script, part rough signage—mixing urgency with a handcrafted, analog feel. Its distressed finish adds a gritty, imperfect character that reads as expressive and dramatic rather than polished or corporate.
The design appears intended to emulate fast, confident brush lettering with a slightly weathered imprint, delivering strong personality and movement for attention-grabbing display typography.
Spacing feels tight and dynamic, with letters that vary slightly in width and stroke texture, helping headlines feel spontaneous. The numerals follow the same brush logic, with slim verticals and tapered curves that maintain the informal, hand-rendered tone.
