LT Superior Extra Light Italic Font

LT Superior Extra Light Italic font by LyonsType is a free extra-light italic sans serif font. It solves the tricky brief of “emphasize without shouting,” delivering a fine, airy texture with a gentle forward lean. Strokes are crisp and low-contrast, counters stay open, and the rhythm feels precise rather than fragile—like a whisper that still carries across the page. Within the LT Superior family, this cut adds nuance without adding visual weight.

This free font shines on editorial captions, luxury tech branding, UI microcopy, fashion lookbooks, minimalist posters, and clean data dashboards. Using LT Superior Extra Light Italic brings a refined, modern glide to short lines and compact layouts. Pair simply with LT Superior Regular for body text, and give it a touch of letterspacing at larger sizes to keep that featherlight clarity.
