A heavy, block-built sans with strongly chamfered corners and faceted, planar cuts that replace curves with straight segments. Strokes are consistently thick with squared terminals and crisp interior counters, giving letters an octagonal, stencil-like silhouette in places. Uppercase forms are compact and uniform, while the lowercase follows a similar constructed logic with a single-storey a and g and simplified bowls that keep the texture dense. Numerals match the same angular geometry, producing a cohesive, hard-edged rhythm across lines of text.
Best suited to display applications such as headlines, posters, sports and club branding, and bold merchandise graphics. It also works for punchy labels or wayfinding where an angular, hard-working voice is desirable, especially at larger sizes where the faceting reads clearly.
The overall tone is tough and no-nonsense, with an athletic and industrial attitude that reads as engineered rather than written. Its sharp facets and compressed, solid shapes evoke team markings, equipment labels, and utilitarian signage where impact and authority matter more than softness or nuance.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch through a faceted, machined geometry—creating a rugged, emblematic look that stays consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals. Its constructed shapes prioritize bold presence and recognizability over delicate detail, aligning it with branding and titling needs.
The font’s distinctive identity comes from repeated diagonal corner cuts and notched joins, which create a consistent sparkle along edges at display sizes. In longer settings the dense color and tight internal spaces can feel imposing, so it visually favors short phrases, headings, and big typographic hits.
