The story behind Cheltenham Classic

Cheltenham Classic was born out of a desire to create a high-quality, freely available typeface inspired by the timeless elegance of the original Cheltenham font. Our goal was to make a versatile and beautiful typeface accessible to designers, writers, and creators worldwide without the burden of licensing fees or restrictions.

Current status & usability

Cheltenham Classic is currently in beta, with over 150+ glyphs available. At present, it supports only the English language. We are continuously working on expanding the character set and improving the overall design.
