COWBOY

A hand-drawn sans-serif font for uses in western themes and beyond. It is rugged, flexible, yet maintains character and a sense of human touch or being aged by time.

Featuring the original vectors AND new ones!

Somewhere in-between Santa Fe, New Mexico and Jackson, Wyoming is a never ending spring of inspiration. Ancient cliff dwellings, petroglyphs, and stone formations elicit awe amidst the arid climate. In spite of the harsh weather, there is abundant life. Cacti swollen with water, a fleeting sight of a road runner - these are the signs of the wild west.

In my childhood I spent many a roadtrip exploring the vast landscapes of the southwestern United States, although usually pretty close to the Rocky Mountains. It is these pivotal memories that I repeatedly find myself reliving through art and design.

COWBOY was one of my first fonts, and is by far my best seller. I am partial to it for its versatility and its even but imperfect characteristics. When I decided to embark on a journey to take type design more seriously, it was only fitting to start by re-making COWBOY with all of the love and attention in my world.

Please enjoy an updated set of glyphs and a few new vector icons to use as you please. And if you find yourself somewhere along the rockies and the western deserts, don’t forget to take it in a little extra.
