A heavy, block-built sans with octagonal construction and prominent chamfered corners throughout. Strokes are thick and mostly monoline, with angular joins and squared terminals that create a faceted, sign-like silhouette. Distressed texture appears as small chips, abrasions, and uneven ink bite along edges and in counters, giving each glyph a worn printed finish. Uppercase forms feel compact and sturdy; lowercase is simplified and sturdy as well, with single-storey shapes and straightforward bowls, while figures are similarly angular and robust.
Best suited to display applications such as posters, headlines, logo wordmarks, packaging front panels, and apparel graphics where the rugged texture can read at size. It also works well for sports or industrial-themed branding and short, punchy messaging that benefits from its sturdy rhythm and angular presence.
The overall tone is tough and utilitarian, evoking hard-wearing labels, equipment markings, and no-nonsense signage. The faceted geometry adds a sporty, competitive edge, while the abrasion texture introduces grit and a vintage, used-in-the-field character.
The design appears intended to merge a geometric, chamfered display build with a worn-print overlay, creating a typeface that feels both engineered and battle-tested. Its simplified forms and heavy color suggest a focus on impact and recognizability rather than delicate text setting.
The most distinctive feature is the consistent chamfering that turns many curves into straight segments, producing stop-sign-like rounds (notably in O/C/G/0/8). The distressing is present but controlled, reading clearly at headline sizes while adding visual noise that can build character in large display settings.
