A heavy, compact serif with strong, angular construction and distinctly chamfered corners throughout. The letterforms favor straight segments and squared bowls, with octagonal rounding on curves and tight interior counters that create a dense color on the page. Serifs read as short, wedge-like terminals rather than long brackets, and many joins are sharply cut, giving the alphabet a carved, faceted look. Uppercase forms are sturdy and uniform, while the lowercase keeps the same geometric logic with sturdy stems and minimal curvature; numerals follow the same clipped, sign-painting geometry.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and signage where its chamfered, blocky shapes can be read at larger sizes. It also works well for sports branding, packaging accents, and logo wordmarks that need a rugged, vintage sign aesthetic.
The overall tone is bold and no-nonsense, evoking vintage signage and old-west display lettering with a sporty, team-jersey edge. Its angular cuts and compact rhythm feel tough, utilitarian, and attention-grabbing rather than refined or literary.
The design appears intended as a decorative serif for display typography, using consistent bevel-like cuts and compact proportions to create a sturdy, emblematic voice that stands out in short lines of text.
The face maintains a consistent system of corner cuts across capitals, lowercase, and figures, which helps it stay cohesive in headlines. In paragraph-like settings it reads as a strong display texture, with the tight counters and heavy joins emphasizing a dark, poster-ready presence.
