A heavy, block-forward slab serif with squared geometry and broad, even strokes. Curves are tightened into rounded-rectangle forms, and terminals resolve into flat, rectangular ends that read like cut slabs rather than tapered serifs. Counters are compact and mostly rectangular, giving letters a dense, stamped texture, while spacing and sidebearings feel deliberate for headline set sizes. The lowercase shows sturdy, engineered construction with single-storey forms and minimal modulation, keeping a consistent, mechanical rhythm across text.
This font is well suited to headlines, posters, and branding where strong presence and clarity are needed. It works especially well for signage, packaging, labels, and sports or team-style graphics where compact counters and squared slabs reinforce an industrial, authoritative voice.
The overall tone is tough and workmanlike, evoking signage, equipment labeling, and team identity systems. Its squared forms and forceful weight feel confident and slightly nostalgic, with a pragmatic, no-nonsense attitude.
The design appears intended to deliver high-impact readability with a squared slab-serif structure that holds up in bold display settings. Its restrained detailing and consistent stroke weight suggest a focus on durability, clarity, and a distinctive, stamp-like texture.
Numbers are built with the same rounded-rectangle logic as the letters, staying highly legible and uniform in color. The face maintains a strong baseline and cap-line presence, producing a solid typographic block that favors impact over delicacy.
