A heavy, blocky sans with squared terminals and rounded interior corners, built from solid strokes that are visually “carved” by a narrow inline stripe and framed by a strong outer edge. Counters are generous and the curves (C, G, O, Q) stay smooth and wide, while diagonals (K, V, W, X, Y) feel sturdy and slightly condensed by the stripe detail. The inline treatment is consistent across letters and figures, creating a layered, dimensional look that remains legible at display sizes. Numerals are similarly robust, with open shapes and clear silhouettes.
Best suited to large-scale display work such as headlines, posters, event graphics, and brand marks where the inline carving can read clearly. It also fits packaging, badges, and sports or school-themed identities that benefit from a bold, vintage sign-like presence.
The overall tone is energetic and attention-seeking, combining a classic sign-paint/scoreboard feel with a crisp, graphic finish. The inline stripe adds a lively, decorative rhythm that reads as vintage and sporty, making the font feel upbeat rather than formal.
The design appears aimed at delivering maximum impact through a strong silhouette paired with decorative inline detailing, offering a classic display look that stays structured and readable. The consistent carved stripe suggests an intention to evoke traditional outlined/engraved lettering while remaining clean and contemporary in rhythm.
Spacing appears intentionally roomy, helping the intricate stroke detailing avoid clogging in short words and headings. The double-edge/inline construction gives a subtle 3D or engraved effect, especially noticeable in rounded letters and the heavier joins.
