Desi

Desi font by Mike Fonts is a free eroded display typeface that looks like it’s been pulled from a thick, inky poster that’s weathered a few rainstorms. Massive, blocky shapes are chewed away at the edges, creating a chunky, uneven rhythm that feels loud, raw, and hand-cut. The counterforms swell and squeeze so your words look like they’re pushing against the edges of the page, demanding attention.

Using Desi, your headlines instantly feel underground and unpolished in the best way. This free font shines on gig posters, album covers, skate and streetwear branding, DIY zines, bold stickers, and gritty social graphics. Set it big and tight, then pair it with a clean, narrow sans serif for the small supporting text so the wild texture of Desi can do all the shouting.
