A heavy, slab‑serif display face with squared proportions and a carved inline running through the center of each stroke, creating a letterman-style dimensional effect. Strokes are broad and blocky with firm, rectangular terminals and minimal curvature, while counters are compact and tightly controlled. The inline detailing is consistent across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, giving the black shapes a cut, engraved rhythm that reads as both outlined and filled. Overall spacing feels sturdy and deliberate, favoring impact over delicacy, with clear, straight-sided silhouettes and strong baseline presence.
Best used at display sizes where the inline cut and slab structure can be appreciated—headlines, posters, team or club branding, badges, and bold packaging. It can also work for short blocks of text such as pull quotes or labels, where a dense, authoritative texture is desired.
The tone is assertive and nostalgic, evoking classic varsity lettering and old western poster vernacular. Its carved interior line adds a crafted, stamped quality that feels rugged and energetic, suited to attention-grabbing messaging with a confident, no-nonsense voice.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch with a familiar collegiate/western backbone, enhanced by an inline carve that suggests depth and craftsmanship. The consistent engraved detail across the set points to signage and emblem use, where recognizability and impact are paramount.
Capitals dominate with strong, emblematic forms, while the lowercase keeps the same block-built construction for a unified texture in paragraph-like settings. Numerals share the same squared, sign-painter solidity and maintain the inline treatment for consistent branding across alphanumerics.
