20 Free Fonts Ideal For Logos And Headings
In this collection of fonts, I wanted to focus on a few that generally work well for use with logos and headings alike. Easy to read fonts that carry a nice strong appearance with just a hint of class. Whether you’re working on a clean design or something a little more decorative, one of these fonts will surely do the trick. To help you better visualize the use of these typefaces, I used each one in its own custom design.
GreatLakes
Bauer
Gaps
Gnuolane
Bebas
Soolidium
Mentone
Days
Old Sans Black
Kimberly
Molot
Harabara
Franchise
Hit the Road
Suede
Savings Bond
Sertig
Headthinker
Lobster
League Gothic
When it comes to this particular list, it’s kind of hard to beat League Gothic. It works great for headlines and I’ve personally used it before on client logos. On the other hand, Bauer took me by surprise. I had never seen it before and I became an instant fan. Have a favorite or a suggestion? Let’s here about it in the comment section.

Thank you for these. I have a feeling Mentone and I will be best friends forever.
I knew Harabara would be in this list. We just did a quick logotype using it at sovoho.com.
Although the tracking/spacing for each letter was almost random. Kerning adjustments were done manually with each letter on it’s own layer. pain in the a.

I like Kimberly…
The Gaps font doesn’t look the same when I click the link. I know you added the shadow yourself, but the actual letter forms are different. Is anyone else having this problem? or know where to get the one shown here.
Also, great list, thanks.
It happened to kimberly font too. The link shows a “kimberlEy”, which seems way too diferent.
The “Gaps” font’s link is displaying a different font. Does anybody know the name of the original font that’s on display in the picture? Thanks! Great list btw!

Hey. I see you’ve got good fonts in here. I’m actually planning to have my research paper as professional-looking as possible. Do you know of any slim font that’s good for headings? I’ve already tried some of the fonts you listed but it seems to have for an academic paper. Thanks
Fantastic list bro. A logo is the symbol of an organization and these fonts are good to use. I love the way you have presented in the images too. Are these fonts available for Mac too???
Really love the font that was used for the molot.otf picture. Any idea what it is? The Molot downloadable font is completely different. Would love the backgrounds as well. Cheers!
