About Krinkes

Krinkes is a retro script by the Swedish designer Måns Grebäck, released in 2015. Its heavy, slanted letters recall classic baseball jerseys, diner signs and vintage sports logos, and the download comes in two styles: Regular, and Decor with flourished capitals.

In the free version the 0 to 9 keys type swashy underline tails, the kind you see under team names on jerseys, instead of numbers. Krinkes is free for personal use; commercial projects need a license from the designer.
