A heavy, high-impact slab serif with strongly bracketed serifs and sturdy, rectangular construction. Strokes show noticeable modulation, with thick verticals and slightly lighter joins, while terminals and serifs remain broad and assertive. Counters are relatively compact and the overall color is dense, producing a dark, poster-like texture in text. The lowercase has a solid, workmanlike rhythm with a single-storey “a” and a robust “g,” and the numerals match the same blunt, anchored footing.
Best suited to display settings such as headlines, posters, and bold editorial typography where strong serifs and dense color help commands attention. It also fits packaging, labels, and signage that benefit from an assertive, traditional slab-serif voice. For body text, it will be most effective at larger sizes or with added tracking to avoid a crowded texture.
The typeface conveys a confident, no-nonsense tone with a classic, print-forward presence. Its weight and slab structure feel authoritative and slightly rugged, suggesting headlines with a traditional, industrial or Western-tinged energy rather than a delicate or minimalist voice.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum presence with a familiar slab-serif silhouette—broad, bracketed serifs, sturdy proportions, and clear letterforms that read as classic and dependable. It prioritizes impact and authority while retaining enough stroke modulation to keep the forms lively in display use.
In longer lines the bold slabs create a pronounced horizontal emphasis, giving paragraphs a strong baseline and cap-line structure. The heavy joins and compact apertures favor impact over airiness, making it best when generous size or spacing is available.
