A heavy, block-driven slab serif with square, unbracketed joins and a strongly rectilinear build. Corners are slightly rounded, softening the otherwise rigid geometry, while counters are compact and mostly rectangular. The lowercase is large and sturdy, with short ascenders and descenders relative to the overall heft, creating a dense, even texture in paragraphs. Overall spacing feels compact and the bold serifs act as strong horizontal anchors, giving the design a stable, poster-ready rhythm.
Best suited to headlines, posters, labels, and signage where strong impact and quick recognition are needed. It also fits sports branding and vintage-inspired packaging, and can work for short blocks of text when a dense, assertive texture is desired.
The tone is bold and no-nonsense, with a classic poster and workwear sensibility. Its chunky slabs and compact shapes evoke vintage signage, varsity and team graphics, and a confident, utilitarian presence.
Likely drawn to deliver maximum presence with straightforward, squared slabs and simplified internal shapes, prioritizing sturdiness and legibility in bold display contexts while keeping a cohesive, compact rhythm across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
Numerals and capitals read especially solid and uniform, with simplified, squared forms that hold up well at display sizes. The design favors clarity and impact over delicate detail, producing a dark, emphatic color on the page.
