A heavy, geometric sans built from straight strokes and clipped corners, replacing curves with crisp planar facets. Counters tend toward octagonal and squared forms, with uniform stroke thickness and sharp terminals that create a machined, cut-metal look. Proportions are sturdy and slightly condensed in places, with a large x-height and short extenders that keep lowercase tight and dense. The overall rhythm is boxy and consistent, prioritizing bold silhouettes and clean interior spaces over calligraphic nuance.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as sports identities, event posters, merchandise graphics, wayfinding, and bold UI labels. It performs especially well when you need compact, hard-edged letterforms that remain legible under strong contrast and at large sizes.
The faceted construction reads as sporty and utilitarian, evoking varsity letterforms, equipment labeling, and industrial signage. Its sharp edges and compact density add a disciplined, tactical tone, while the simplified geometry lends a retro digital/arcade flavor when set large.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through simplified, faceted geometry—capturing the feel of cut vinyl, stamped labeling, or varsity-style marking while staying clean and contemporary in mixed-case text.
Numerals and capitals share the same chamfered geometry, producing strong, easily recognized shapes. The lowercase maintains the same angular language, giving mixed-case settings a uniform, engineered texture that stays punchy at display sizes.
