A heavy, forward-leaning slab-serif display face with blocky, chiseled contours and sharp internal corners. Strokes are thick and assertive with subtle modulation, and many terminals end in squared slabs that read as slightly beveled or faceted rather than perfectly flat. Counters are tight and often polygonal, giving letters like O, Q, and e a cut-out, sign-painted feel. The rhythm is punchy and uneven in a deliberate way, with wedge-like joins and angled cuts that create a strong, mechanical texture across words and lines.
Best suited for headlines, posters, and short bursts of text where a strong, rugged voice is needed. It fits well in sports and team identities, event promotion, product packaging, and bold signage where the faceted slabs and compact counters contribute to a high-impact, vintage-meets-industrial look.
The overall tone is bold and gritty, combining a vintage poster energy with an industrial, hard-edged attitude. Its faceted slabs and angular cuts evoke athletic branding, old signage, and stamped or carved lettering, projecting strength and impact more than refinement.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch through heavy strokes, angular carving-like details, and slabbed terminals, creating a distinctive display texture that stays cohesive across caps, lowercase, and figures.
In the sample text, the dense color and tight counters make it most comfortable at larger sizes where the internal shapes stay clear. Numerals match the letterforms with the same cut, beveled geometry, supporting a cohesive headline palette.
