If you’re ready to send your visitors on a blast from the past (or back to the future), try out one of these ten awesome retro fonts!
If you’re looking for more fonts, take a look at our 100 Best Free Fonts for Designers.
This font is awesome! It’s rare to see fonts with a gradient, but RM Serifancy pulls it off perfectly. The old-timey, western feel has a universal appeal. But this will work well if you’re going for something epic or masculine.
If you’re searching for a font that can best be described as “groovy”, look no further. Action Is is absolutely perfect for capturing that sixties and seventies vibe. The curvy, mixed-case font is completely non-conforming to the standards of typography, and that’s exactly what makes it so great!
Skinny, tall, and thin, this all-caps font almost seems to be yelling at you through the screen. This is great if you need something bold and artsy. The font comes in four styles that change the line thickness but still keep that distinctive narrow look.
For a font that makes you feel like you’re on Broadway, try out Showtime! This is certainly a unique decorative font. Just type what you want and use brackets on either side to enclose it, creating something like a lit-up banner at a movie premiere.
Want to create a feel just like a vintage burger joint? Try out this font! The hamburger craze of the 1900s stretches back all the way to the twenties and thirties, so this kind of font can help you craft a very classical feel.
MadisonSquare looks like neon text! If you’re creating something meant to look like an electric sign, you might want to try out this font. It’s definitely not something you’ll want to use for entire paragraphs, but it’d look striking in a logo or if used to call attention to a short piece of text.
Inspired by the 1968 Mexico Olympics (look it up and see the resemblance for yourself!), this stripey font comes with two styles: 3D and regular. Follow the link on the page and you can also find even more in the font family! You can use this font for free in graphics such as logos, but you will need a commercial web license to embed on websites.
Now this is a lively font! Budmo is covered in little neon lights – amazing if you’re trying to make people think of old-school Hollywood. There’s a ton of font styles in here: One dark, one light, two solids and one bulb style. The last three are so you can customize the font with layering. You’ll need a web license to use on websites, but otherwise this is free for commercial use.
Inspired by Kool Aid, this font is simple enough to work well in a lot of situations. It looks very much old-fashioned but doesn’t go overboard with it. Try using it in a logo if you want a bit of retro flair. However, brackets, parentheses and international characters produce dingbats that look like the Kool-Aid Man’s face, so this may not work if you need to use these characters.
Looking for something you’d find on the logo of a wine bottle? Try Coventry Garden. The all-caps font is designed so that uppercase letters create a cursive flourish. Definitely worth a download if you love this anachronistic, regal typography!
Old-School Web Design
Retro fonts may not be traditional, but that’s exactly why they can add so much personality to a website or graphic. Many fonts ditch unique designs for something simpler and more legible. But retro fonts’ bold blocks, bubble text, and sweeping cursive script take risks you don’t often see in typography nowadays. Give these old-school fonts a try and see how lively they can make your site!

Disney is one of the most recognizable brands in the world. Whether it’s through their animated features, theme parks, Marvel movies, Star Wars films or their many video games, Disney is known to everyone around the globe. Their presence has had a viable and undeniable impact around the world, and mere mention brings feelings of joy to a lot of people.
Their impact is so powerful that they even influence the thriving world of design. One of the areas that they have affected is the typography culture.
Before Anything Else, What is Disney Typography?
Disney fonts are typographic font types that take inspiration from Disney and its many brands, products and merchandises. If you have noticed, there are always two distinct type sets when it comes to a Disney feature. First, there’s the classic Disney logo, with the thick letters, the large and unmistakable,’ followed by other letters that convey both fun and a certain kind of stylishness that’s not found in any other typeset. It’s one of the most recognizable font styles around.
Then, of course, there’s the title of the actual film or television show, letters that reflect the characters, story and overall look and feel of what it represents. Think about the opening credits of films like Tangled, A Nightmare Before Christmas, Hercules or The Little Mermaid. They all have their own individual fonts.
Here are Some Famous Disneyesque Fonts:
There are a lot of Disney fonts available. These free fonts can be used in Word, Powerpoint, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe InDesign, Sketch, and any other editor you can think of. Here are several of the best free Disney fonts that every designer and typesetter should keep in their typographical toolbox:
Mouse Memoir Font
The Mouse Memoir Disney font takes inspiration from the original character and cartoon that made Disney a household name: Mickey Mouse. At the same time, it draws inspiration from the other animated series of the 1950’s, from Steamboat Willie, Donald Duck, Goofy and even the Uncle Scrooge comic books.
Mouse Memoirs is characterized by its bold but whimsical design. This is ideal for light-hearted works, like picture books, illustration books or even invitations for a children’s party.

Mickey Ears Font

Malefic Font
Maleficent is one of the first great villains of the Disney animated movies, and it’s only right that she gets her own Disney font. The Malefic font is elegant, thin but sharp and powerful as the character it takes its name from.

No matter what your personal style is, it’s imperative to have a wide selection of fonts in your design library. This will help ensure you always have the right font handy, regardless of the type of project you’re working on.
In most cases, traditional choices will be your best bet. Serif, sans-serif, script or decorative fonts will round out your design nicely and help you convey the right tone and message. But sometimes, you will need to step out of your comfort zone and use something that is a little more unusual.
In cases like those, chunky and 3D fonts could be just what you need. These fonts are perfect for branding projects for brands that want to stand out and be perceived as original and bold. Chunky and 3D fonts are also a great choice for t-shirt designs, posters, billboards, promo materials, and any other type of design project where you need to make an impact.
Keep in mind that these types of fonts can dominate the design so it’s best to use them alongside a simpler font and, of course, avoid using them in long sentences or paragraphs.
Given the number of fonts available online, finding the best chunky or 3D font for your project can take up a lot of your time that could be spent working on the project instead. That’s why we’ve rounded up the best chunky and 3D fonts from around the web. Feel free to download them and use them in your projects.
