A heavy, display-oriented serif with blocky, octagonal construction and crisply cut corners. Strokes are largely straight and planar, with minimal curvature, and the serifs read as compact wedges and spurs rather than long slabs. The letters feel tightly fitted with broad proportions, strong horizontals, and angular counters (notably in round forms like O and 0), creating a stamped, chiseled rhythm. Lowercase follows the same chunky logic with a tall x-height and simplified bowls, while figures are bold, geometric, and sign-ready.
Best suited for headlines, badges, team or event branding, and short promotional copy where a strong silhouette is essential. It also works well on packaging and labels that want a bold, old-time or athletic character, and for logotypes that benefit from faceted, emblem-like letterforms.
The tone is assertive and nostalgic, evoking classic poster lettering with a frontier and varsity flavor. Its sharp spurs and faceted shapes add swagger and theatricality, making text feel loud, spirited, and attention-grabbing.
Likely designed to deliver maximum impact with a carved, decorative serif language that references historical poster and western-inspired lettering while staying highly legible in bold display settings.
The dense color and compact internal spaces make it happiest at larger sizes, where the angular detailing and spurred terminals remain clear. In paragraphs, the strong geometry produces a distinctive texture that reads more like headline copy than continuous body text.
