Heading West
Heading West is a thin, slanted handwritten font digitized from Stephan Wagner's own handwriting, keeping the wobbles and uneven sizes of a real pen rather than smoothing them out. It has one weight and renders small and light, so set it large for personal headlines, notes, and signatures and never for paragraphs.
