A heavy, block-driven slab serif with square-cut outlines and crisp, flat terminals. The strokes are built from straight segments with chamfered corners and small rectangular notches that give the forms a machined, poster-ready texture. Serifs are bold and largely unbracketed, producing strong horizontal anchors and a compact, rectangular rhythm. Counters are tight and geometric, and the overall spacing reads firm and assertive, with slightly individualized widths across letters and figures.
Best suited to display sizes where the cut corners and slab terminals can read clearly—headlines, posters, labels, and bold branding systems. It also works well for signage and sports or team-style wordmarks where a strong, compact texture is desired.
The font projects a rugged, workmanlike confidence with a distinctly American display flavor. Its squared geometry and cut-in details evoke stamped metal, sports signage, and frontier-era wood type, giving it an energetic, no-nonsense tone.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a sturdy slab foundation and a squared, carved look that stays legible under heavy weight. The notch-and-chamfer detailing suggests a deliberate attempt to add character and grit without sacrificing the clarity of the letterforms.
Uppercase shapes lean toward squarish bowls and angular joins, while lowercase retains the same chunky slab treatment for a consistent voice in mixed-case settings. Numerals follow the same square, cut-corner construction, keeping a uniform, sign-painting style across alphanumerics.
