An outline slab-serif with an inline, double-stroke construction that reads like a hollow letterform with an interior contour. The design is monoline in feel, with broad, squared proportions and softly rounded corners that keep the geometry friendly rather than rigid. Serifs are sturdy and bracketless, and many curves (C, G, O, S) are built from rounded-rectangle shapes, giving the face a consistent, sign-like rhythm. Counters are generous and open, and the overall silhouette emphasizes wide, stable forms with a crisp, poster-ready edge.
Best suited to display settings where the outline and inline details can be appreciated—titles, posters, signage, and logo work. It can also work for apparel graphics and sports or school-themed branding, where the slab-serif varsity flavor reads clearly. For long text or small sizes, the open outline structure may lose presence and require careful color/weight handling.
The tone is distinctly collegiate and vintage, evoking varsity lettering and old athletic marks while staying approachable through rounded corners and an airy outline treatment. It feels energetic and attention-grabbing without becoming aggressive, lending a playful, throwback character to headlines and branding.
Likely designed to deliver a varsity-inspired slab-serif look in a lightweight outline format, combining big, stable proportions with a decorative inline contour. The goal appears to be strong recognizability at display sizes while keeping the texture airy and graphic for modern branding and print applications.
The outline construction means interior spacing and joins become part of the personality: terminals, serifs, and curve transitions create small negative shapes that add texture at larger sizes. Numerals follow the same rounded, blocky logic, with the 0 and 8 especially emphasizing the rounded-rectangle counter structure.
