A sturdy slab-serif with pronounced, square-ended serifs and frequent chamfered (octagonal) corners that give many bowls and stems a faceted silhouette. Strokes are relatively even with modest contrast, and joins are clean and angular rather than calligraphic. Uppercase forms feel compact and structured, while the lowercase mixes more conventional slab-serif construction with occasional geometric cuts, creating a slightly eclectic texture. Numerals follow the same squared, clipped-corner logic, reading clearly with a bold, sign-like presence.
Best suited to headlines and short-to-medium text where its faceted, slabbed structure can read as a deliberate stylistic cue. It works well for posters, labels, packaging, and signage that benefit from a bold, crisp, vintage-industrial voice, and can also support branding systems with a collegiate or workshop-inspired aesthetic.
The overall tone is collegiate and industrial, suggesting vintage athletics, workshop signage, and engineered labeling. Its sharp corners and blocky serifs project confidence and a slightly rugged, old-school practicality rather than delicacy or warmth.
Likely designed to blend classic slab-serif readability with a distinctive, cut-corner geometry that adds a crafted, emblematic feel. The intent appears to be a dependable display serif that retains clarity while delivering a recognizable, sign-painted or varsity-adjacent character.
The design leans on straight segments and clipped curves, producing a distinctive rhythm in text where rounded letters become subtly polygonal. The mix of faceted caps with more traditional slab-serif lowercase adds character, making it feel more display-forward than purely bookish.
