A heavy, slab-serif display face built from straight strokes and chamfered, octagonal corners. The letterforms are compact and blocky with squared terminals and prominent brackets, and many glyphs show a carved inline detail that runs through the black strokes to create a dimensional, engraved effect. Outer contours are crisp and geometric, while interior counters tend toward small, squarish openings, reinforcing a dense, poster-ready silhouette. The set mixes strong verticals with angular joins, and the numerals follow the same faceted construction for a consistent, sign-like rhythm.
Works well for sports identity systems, collegiate or club marks, event posters, and merchandise graphics where a strong, emblematic voice is needed. It also suits labels, packaging callouts, and storefront-style signage that benefits from an engraved or dimensional look.
The overall tone is bold and declarative, suggesting varsity and team graphics while also nodding to old storefront and Western poster lettering. The inline carving adds a handcrafted, vintage flavor—more badge and signage than editorial text. It feels tough, energetic, and intentionally attention-seeking.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a classic block-letter foundation, enhanced by an inline carving that mimics engraved, shadowed, or inlaid lettering. Its faceted corners and slab structure prioritize legibility at display sizes while projecting a nostalgic, badge-like presence.
At larger sizes the inline cuts read clearly and add texture; at smaller sizes those fine interior details may visually fill in. The design’s squared counters and tight apertures create a compact color that works best with generous tracking and line spacing in multi-line settings.
