About Zalando Sans Expanded

Zalando Sans Expanded is a sans-serif typeface designed by Jakob Ekelund, KH Type, and Zalando. Sans-serif fonts have clean letterforms without the small finishing strokes associated with serif typefaces. They can suit website interfaces, headlines, labels, and general text where a straightforward typographic style is useful.

This release includes variable and italic variable styles, each listed at weight 400. Variable fonts provide adjustable typographic settings in compatible applications, while the italic style offers another option for emphasis and visual contrast. Files are available in TTF and WOFF2 formats for use in supported desktop software and web projects.

Script coverage includes Latin, Latin Extended, and Vietnamese. The font is distributed under the SIL Open Font License 1.1, which permits commercial use subject to its terms. Preview your own wording to check how the letterforms suit your layout before selecting a download format.

Use Zalando Sans Expanded on your website

Copy the CSS below. Option B needs the font files uploaded to a fonts/ folder on your own server first.

Option A: use the font directly from Fonts1 (no upload needed)

@font-face {
  font-family: 'Zalando Sans Expanded';
  src: url('https://files.fonts1.com/fonts1/fonts/3096/c49061b51e-zalandosansexpanded-wght.woff2') format('woff2');
  font-weight: 400;
  font-style: normal;
  font-display: swap;
}

@font-face {
  font-family: 'Zalando Sans Expanded';
  src: url('https://files.fonts1.com/fonts1/fonts/3096/e3944a5306-zalandosansexpanded-italic-wght.woff2') format('woff2');
  font-weight: 400;
  font-style: italic;
  font-display: swap;
}

Quickest way to try it. For a busy production site, Option B (your own server) is more reliable.

Option B: self-host (download, then upload to your server)

@font-face {
  font-family: 'Zalando Sans Expanded';
  src: url('fonts/ZalandoSansExpanded-wght-.woff2') format('woff2');
  font-weight: 400;
  font-style: normal;
  font-display: swap;
}

@font-face {
  font-family: 'Zalando Sans Expanded';
  src: url('fonts/ZalandoSansExpanded-Italic-wght-.woff2') format('woff2');
  font-weight: 400;
  font-style: italic;
  font-display: swap;
}

2. Apply it

body {
  font-family: 'Zalando Sans Expanded', sans-serif;
}

Fonts that pair well with Zalando Sans Expanded

Good design mixes two or three fonts. These are picked from a different style (a clean sans next to a script, a serif next to a sans) so they stay easy to tell apart and cover the same language.
