An italic outline serif with a crisp outer contour and a secondary inner inline that creates a hollow, double-stroke effect. Letterforms are broadly proportioned with generous spacing and low stroke modulation, relying on slanted construction and strong serifs for structure. Serifs read as slab-like and often bracketed, with chamfered, slightly angular terminals that keep shapes sharp while maintaining a steady rhythm across the alphabet. Curves are smooth and open, counters are roomy, and the outline stays consistent enough to hold together in larger settings.
Best suited to display sizes where the outline and inline detailing can read cleanly—such as headlines, posters, event graphics, and bold brand moments. It can also work well for sports-themed identities, vintage-inspired packaging, and logo wordmarks where an energetic italic serif is desired.
The overall tone is spirited and nostalgic, evoking classic athletic and collegiate lettering with a light, breezy swagger from the italic slant. The outlined treatment adds a sign-painting and poster feel, giving headlines a lively, upbeat presence without becoming heavy.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic italic serif voice with extra visual punch through a hollow, outlined construction. By pairing sturdy serif shapes with an airy double-stroke treatment, it aims to feel both traditional and attention-grabbing for decorative, title-driven typography.
The double-line construction makes interior spaces an active part of the design, which emphasizes silhouettes and diagonals more than fill. Figures show the same outlined/inline logic, with round numerals feeling especially airy and decorative compared to the straighter, more architectural letters.
