A heavy, monoline slab serif with squared-off, angular construction and pronounced chamfered corners throughout. Strokes maintain consistent thickness, while terminals and serifs feel flat and block-like, giving letters an engineered, cut-from-solid look. Counters tend toward squarish and octagonal shapes (notably in rounded forms), and the overall rhythm is compact with tight interior spaces that hold up best at larger sizes. Numerals and capitals share the same hard-edged geometry, producing a uniform, poster-ready texture.
This face is well suited to sports and school branding, badges, and identity marks where strength and clarity are desired. It also performs well in posters, bold headlines, packaging, and signage that benefit from a compact, high-impact texture. For longer passages, it is likely most comfortable in short blocks or display sizes due to its dense counters and heavy color.
The tone reads assertive and dependable, with a strong collegiate and workwear flavor. Its angular cuts and block serifs add a rugged, no-nonsense character that feels vintage without becoming ornate.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic slab-serif authority with a modern, machined edge—combining traditional block serifs with faceted, octagonal rounding for a crisp, emblematic look.
Many curves are interpreted as faceted arcs, creating a consistent octagonal motif across O-like forms and rounded bowls. The lowercase is sturdy and headline-oriented, with short ascenders/descenders relative to the overall heft, reinforcing a dense, impactful color on the page.
