A condensed, all-caps–friendly display face built from tall, straight-sided forms with consistent chamfered (octagonal) corners. Strokes are rendered as an outline with open interiors, producing strong figure/ground contrast and a crisp, sign-painter-like edge. Curves are largely squared off into faceted segments, counters are tight and angular, and joins stay clean and mechanical. The lowercase echoes the uppercase construction with similarly tall proportions, while numerals follow the same faceted geometry for a uniform, set-like rhythm.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as sports branding, team names, event posters, badges, and logo lockups. It can work for punchy subheads and packaging callouts when set at medium-to-large sizes where the outline contours remain clean and the angular details stay legible.
The overall tone reads sporty and competitive, with a classic varsity/jersey energy and a slightly retro scoreboard feel. Its sharp facets and hollow construction also lend an industrial, badge-like character that feels assertive without becoming heavy.
The letterforms appear designed to evoke varsity lettering through tall, condensed proportions and faceted corners, while using an outline construction to add airiness and layering potential. The consistent geometry suggests an emphasis on reproducible, emblematic shapes that hold up in bold display compositions.
The design relies on straight strokes and clipped terminals, which keeps texture even across lines and helps maintain clarity in tightly tracked settings. The outline structure creates a lighter color on the page than a filled block font, making it useful when you want impact while preserving negative space.
