A slab-serif, collegiate-style outline face built from a single, even-weight contour. The letterforms are mostly squared and blocky with gently rounded corners, short bracketed slabs, and a consistent interior counter gap that reads as an inline outline. Proportions feel sturdy and slightly condensed in the capitals, while the lowercase keeps simple, traditional structures (two-storey forms where expected) and a straightforward, non-calligraphic rhythm. Numerals follow the same varsity construction with wide turns and clear, open counters.
Well-suited to sports identities, school and club marks, apparel graphics, and bold promotional headlines. It also works for packaging callouts, badges, and signage where an outlined, stamp-like look is desired and there is room for the interior counters to remain clear.
The overall tone is classic athletic and campus-inspired, evoking jersey lettering, letterman patches, and vintage team branding. Its hollow construction gives it a lively, graphic presence that feels upbeat and poster-ready rather than purely text-driven.
The design appears intended to deliver a familiar varsity slab-serif voice while using an outline-only construction to keep shapes open, adaptable to fills, and visually striking in display contexts.
Because the strokes are rendered as open outlines, the face gains impact at larger sizes and in high-contrast applications; at smaller sizes the interior spacing and doubled edges can visually soften fine details. The consistent contour weight and squared terminals help it hold together across mixed-case settings, while the slab serifs add a traditional, emblematic finish.
