A heavy, block-built slab serif with squared terminals and unbracketed serifs that meet stems sharply. The design is strongly rectilinear with large, sturdy counters and frequent chamfered or notched corners that add a cut-out, stencil-like flavor without fully breaking strokes. Proportions lean wide and compact, with short extenders and a commanding, even color across lines; the lowercase stays robust and simple, and figures follow the same thick, squared construction for cohesive numerals in display sizes.
Best suited to big, high-impact applications such as posters, headlines, team or athletic branding, event graphics, packaging callouts, and bold signage. It performs well where quick recognition and a rugged, blocky presence are more important than long-form reading comfort.
The overall tone is bold and assertive, evoking Western poster lettering, athletic signage, and utilitarian industrial labeling. Its notched geometry and blunt serifs give it a rugged, hardworking character that feels attention-grabbing and straightforward rather than refined or delicate.
The letterforms appear designed to deliver maximum visual authority with a clear slab-serif framework, using notches and squared geometry to add character while maintaining sturdy, legible shapes. The emphasis is on display impact and a heritage-meets-industrial aesthetic.
The rhythm is tight and punchy, favoring large internal spaces and clear silhouettes over fine detail. At smaller sizes the dense strokes can feel heavy, while at headline sizes the cut-in details and squared joins read as intentional personality.
