I traced out KC with the pen tool but every 'find my font' site I usually go to has been a waste of time. A client of mine emailed this picture over– he wants me to redo this, which I thought would be simple. I'd like it to look as crisp as possible (therefore I don't think my pen tool skills are good enough) :') Thanks for your time!

I saw the picture and immediately thought of ‘Century Handtooled’ — but on closer inspection, the font is most definitely ‘Bodoni Open’ — the closest version I have found is ‘OPTIBodoni-Open’ — hopefully this will suffice?  > https://www.whatfontis.com/OPTIBodoni-Open.font  Please note: some of the details from lettering on the t-shirt have been modified — also, there does not appear to be an ‘italic’ version of this font so you may need to skew the word ‘Striping’ yourself.   What software are you working with?
