Fonts Testing Page

Review each font below and share your favorites. The first three (Rye, Inter, Caveat) are our proposed direction — the rest are alternatives spanning old-fashioned to modern barbershop styles, in case you'd like to compare before locking anything in.

H1 — Font 1: RYE

★ Proposed Direction Vintage Western & Saloon

H2: Rye

H3: Rye — Vintage Western & Saloon

H4: Rye

H5: Rye
H6: RYE

class: font-rye

Paragraph: "Rye has the bold, hand-carved feel of an old barber pole sign — rugged, traditional, and distinctly Americana. It's a display font only, meant for headlines, not paragraphs. Pairs naturally with a clean body font like Inter."

"Hamburgefonstiv": A classic string of characters used by designers to see how the most common character shapes (h, a, m, b, u, r, g, e, f, o, n, s, t, i, v) look together.

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0

11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20

~ ! @ # $ % ^ & * ( ) — _ = + " " : ; ? /

"The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog."

What is Lorem Ipsum?

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

H1 — Font 2: INTER

★ Proposed Direction Clean & Universal

H2: Inter

H3: Inter — Clean & Universal

H4: Inter

H5: Inter
H6: INTER

class: font-inter

Paragraph: "Inter is the workhorse font. Very clean, modern, extremely readable on every device — the right choice for body text and paragraphs, letting the display headline font (Rye) do the personality work."

"Hamburgefonstiv": A classic string of characters used by designers to see how the most common character shapes (h, a, m, b, u, r, g, e, f, o, n, s, t, i, v) look together.

H1 — Font 3: CAVEAT

★ Proposed Direction Casual Handwritten Script

H2: Caveat

H3: Caveat — Casual Handwritten Script

H4: Caveat

H5: Caveat
H6: CAVEAT

class: font-caveat

Paragraph: "Caveat has a relaxed, personal handwriting feel — used sparingly for small accent lines like 'See you in the chair,' never for headings or body copy. It adds warmth without looking overly formal or old-fashioned."

"Hamburgefonstiv": A classic string of characters used by designers to see how the most common character shapes (h, a, m, b, u, r, g, e, f, o, n, s, t, i, v) look together.

H2: Alfa Slab One

H3: Alfa Slab One — Bold Vintage Slab

H4: Alfa Slab One

H5: Alfa Slab One
H6: ALFA SLAB ONE

class: font-alfa-slab-one

Paragraph: "Alfa Slab One is heavy, blocky, and unmistakably vintage — the kind of lettering you'd see hand-painted on an old shop window. Extremely bold, so it's best for very short headlines only."

H3: Playfair Display — Classic & Elegant

H4: Playfair Display

H5: Playfair Display
H6: PLAYFAIR DISPLAY

class: font-playfair-display

Paragraph: "Playfair Display leans traditional and refined rather than rugged — high-contrast strokes give it a polished, old-world barbershop feel without the rustic Western edge of Rye. A more upscale alternative."

H2: Oswald

H3: Oswald — Modern Condensed & Masculine

H4: Oswald

H5: Oswald
H6: OSWALD

class: font-oswald

Retro Rounded Signage Script

H2: Pacifico

H3: Pacifico — Retro Rounded Script

H4: Pacifico

H5: Pacifico
H6: PACIFICO

class: font-pacifico

Paragraph: "Pacifico reads like classic mid-century diner or barbershop signage — bolder and more deliberate than a casual handwriting script like Caveat. An alternative if you want the script accent to feel more 'shop sign' than 'handwritten note.'"

"Hamburgefonstiv": A classic string of characters used by designers to see how the most common character shapes (h, a, m, b, u, r, g, e, f, o, n, s, t, i, v) look together.

H4: Libre Baskerville

H5: Libre Baskerville
H6: LIBRE BASKERVILLE

class: font-libre-baskerville

Paragraph: "Libre Baskerville is a body-text alternative to Inter — a classic serif designed for long-form reading, with a more old-world, storybook feel. Worth comparing if you'd rather the whole site feel traditional rather than clean-modern."
