A heavy, display-oriented serif with sturdy verticals and flared terminals that broaden into short, wedge-like serifs. Curves are full and rounded with low modulation, giving the letterforms a solid, uniform color on the page. Counters are relatively tight for the weight, and joins are smooth and well-supported, producing a compact rhythm. Uppercase shapes are broad and emphatic, while the lowercase keeps a traditional structure with a double-storey “a,” a single-storey “g,” and short, confident serifs on stems and arms.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and short bursts of copy where strong typographic presence is needed. It can work well for sports or club branding, product packaging, and editorial display settings where a classic, authoritative voice is desired.
The overall tone is bold and assertive, with a familiar, heritage-leaning flavor. Its flared endings and compact density evoke traditional print typography while still reading as punchy and energetic in large sizes.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through dense, heavy forms while retaining traditional serif cues. Flared stroke endings and compact counters help it project a classic, dependable personality that stays readable at display sizes.
The numerals appear sturdy and highly legible, matching the letterforms’ compact proportions and wedge-like finishing. Across the set, terminals tend to resolve with small triangular or beaked forms, reinforcing a consistent, carved-and-inked silhouette.
