A heavy slab-serif with blocky construction and crisp, square terminals. Strokes are generally uniform in thickness, with short, flat slabs and minimal bracketing that keep corners sharp and mechanical. Counters are compact and round-to-squared, producing a dense, high-impact texture; the lowercase has robust stems and a single-storey “a,” while the numerals share the same blunt, architectural weight. Overall spacing feels sturdy and slightly open, giving the design a stable rhythm in both caps and mixed-case settings.
Best suited to headlines, posters, labels, and signage where a strong slab-serif voice is needed. It also fits packaging, badges, and sports-leaning branding that benefits from a bold, durable texture, while longer text is likely more comfortable at generous sizes and leading.
The font projects a confident, workmanlike tone with a vintage, American poster/athletic undercurrent. Its strong slabs and blunt geometry read as straightforward and no-nonsense, leaning toward industrial signage and bold editorial statements rather than delicate nuance.
The design appears intended to deliver a powerful slab-serif look with square-cut terminals and a compact, muscular color on the page. Its consistent stroke weight and sturdy proportions prioritize impact and legibility in display contexts.
Round forms (C, O, Q) are full and weighty, while straight-sided letters keep a rigid silhouette that reinforces the square-ended theme. The joins and diagonals (K, V, W, X) stay thick and consistent, helping the face hold up well at larger sizes and in short, punchy lines.
