Cloister Black, by Dieter Steffmann, is the blackletter that searches and forums name as the closest match to the Chrome Hearts logo. Its license does not let it be passed on and its author says private use only, so it is not given here: get it from its author. Free for posters, invites and your edits; to sell what you make with it, buy its author’s licence.

Google’s answer and a forum thread in its results both end at Cloister Black, a blackletter drawn by Dieter Steffmann and digitized by Typographer Mediengestaltung. That answer calls the logo a bold gothic, or Old English, typeface and says the real one has custom, ornate touches, so Cloister Black is a close match and not the logo itself.
Cloister Black is not given here, because its sources disagree: its author says it is free for private use only, dafont calls it 100% Free, and 1001Fonts lists it as free for commercial use too. Grenze Gotisch, by Omnibus-Type, is the font offered instead, with pointed gothic strokes of its own; its SIL Open Font License lets anyone set it in any project.
Chrome Hearts lettering is gothic: heavy and black, with small letters built from straight, angled strokes and capitals that curl into ornate flourishes, as Cloister Black draws them. One result in Google describes it as a bold gothic script, often seen on the brand’s silver jewelry, apparel and eyewear.
Solid on the Logo background draws your words in black gothic letters on white, the plainest form of the look. Paper sets them on a warm white sheet, Outline draws only their edges for a background you choose, and Clear drops the ground so the letters can sit on a photo or a mockup.

The logo is described as custom gothic lettering, and the font people are pointed to is Cloister Black, by Dieter Steffmann, the closest match Google’s answer names. Grenze Gotisch is the free font in the same gothic spirit that is given here.
Yes for Grenze Gotisch, the font offered here: its SIL Open Font License lets anyone use it, for personal or paid work. For Cloister Black the sources disagree: its author says private use only, while dafont and 1001Fonts label it free. The logo itself belongs to Chrome Hearts.
Download Grenze Gotisch here, then upload it to Canva’s Brand Kit, since Canva Pro is what accepts your own font files. A free Canva account works too if you upload a picture made in the field at the top instead.
Copy-and-paste generators, like those in Google’s results, use Unicode characters that look like blackletter. They paste anywhere but cannot be installed as a font, and they are not the Chrome Hearts lettering.
Yes for the letters you type in Grenze Gotisch: its license allows selling work made with it. The Chrome Hearts name and logo are the brand’s own, so a product that says Chrome Hearts or copies its logo needs its permission.
