A compact, heavy display serif with squared-off slab detailing and a distinctly condensed stance. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, and terminals resolve into flat, rectangular ends that create a sturdy, stamped look. Counters are relatively tight and vertical stress is emphasized by straight stems and abbreviated curves, giving rounds like C, O, and S a squarish, tensioned rhythm. The lowercase follows the same rigid geometry with sturdy, rectangular serifs and a straightforward, workmanlike texture across words and lines.
Best suited to headlines, short bursts of text, and high-impact titling where its condensed width and heavy slabs can do the visual work. It performs well on posters, labels, sports or event graphics, and bold brand marks—especially when strong vertical rhythm and a classic, sturdy presence are desired.
The overall tone is bold and utilitarian, recalling signage, athletic titling, and vintage printing. Its dense, upright rhythm reads as confident and assertive, with a slightly rugged, old-time flavor that can lean western or industrial depending on color and layout.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in a narrow footprint while preserving serifed character through square, slab-like terminals. Its geometry and consistent stroke weight suggest a focus on strong reproduction, bold word-shapes, and an authoritative, vintage-leaning display voice.
The condensed proportions and tight internal spaces make the font feel punchy at larger sizes, while the squared joins and slab endings help maintain clarity and edge definition. Numerals share the same compact, block-built construction, supporting cohesive headline setting across letters and figures.
