A slanted, brush-script style with narrow proportions and visibly textured strokes. Letterforms show a dry-brush look with broken edges, occasional speckling, and uneven stroke boundaries that create a naturally distressed imprint. Strokes taper and swell subtly, with quick entry/exit flicks and slightly irregular curves that keep the rhythm lively. Spacing is open enough for display use, while the overall construction stays consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
Well-suited to short, attention-grabbing text such as posters, headlines, covers, and promotional graphics where texture and personality are assets. It can add character to branding and packaging, especially for products and events that benefit from a handcrafted or gritty tone. For best results, use at larger sizes where the brush texture remains clear and intentional.
The font feels handwritten and spontaneous, with a gritty, street-poster attitude. Its roughened brush texture adds a tactile, analog quality—more expressive than polished—suggesting motion, urgency, and a DIY sensibility.
Likely designed to capture the look of fast, confident brush lettering with an intentionally worn, imperfect print quality. The narrow, slanted forms and dry-brush texture aim to deliver impact and authenticity, balancing legibility with expressive surface detail.
Uppercase and lowercase share a cohesive brush logic, and the numerals follow the same textured, hand-drawn energy. The distressing is integrated into the stroke shapes rather than appearing as separate noise, helping the font read as authentically brushed rather than mechanically eroded.
