A heavy, block-built slab serif with an angular, chamfered construction throughout. Strokes are broad and largely uniform, with corners cut into straight facets that create an octagonal rhythm on bowls, joints, and terminals. Serifs read as stout rectangular slabs, and the inner counters are squarish and tightly enclosed, emphasizing a compact, stamped silhouette. Curves are minimized in favor of straight segments, producing a crisp, machined look and strong, dark typographic color.
Best suited for display sizes where its faceted slabs and dense texture can read clearly—posters, headlines, signage, and bold packaging callouts. It also fits sports or team-style branding, merchandise graphics, and labels that benefit from a sturdy, vintage-leaning voice.
The overall tone feels rugged and assertive, with a classic poster-and-signage character. Its faceted slabs and compressed counters evoke western and collegiate traditions while also suggesting utilitarian, industrial marking.
Likely designed to deliver maximum impact with a carved or stamped, slab-serif look that stays consistent across the character set. The chamfered geometry appears intended to add texture and personality while keeping letterforms straightforward and highly legible at large sizes.
The face maintains consistent angular logic across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals, giving mixed-case setting a unified, emblematic texture. Numerals share the same beveled geometry and block weight, supporting a cohesive display palette for headlines, labels, and numbering-heavy layouts.
