A heavy, blocky sans with compact proportions and softly rounded corners. Strokes are largely uniform, with subtle, uneven contouring and small nicks that create a worn, printed texture rather than clean vector edges. Counters are simple and fairly closed, and several joins show squared-off, utilitarian geometry that reads like cut or stamped letterforms. The overall rhythm is sturdy and consistent, with a slightly compressed, poster-ready presence.
Well suited to impactful headlines on posters, signage-style graphics, and packaging where a tactile, printed look is desirable. It also fits labels, badges, and merchandise graphics that benefit from a sturdy, vintage-industrial voice, especially in short blocks of text or large-scale display settings.
The font conveys a rugged, industrial confidence with a vintage workwear tone. Its distressed surface suggests age, handling, or rough production, giving headlines an authentic, hands-on character that feels bold and no-nonsense.
Likely designed to deliver a tough, utilitarian display voice with the visual imperfections of worn ink or stamped production. The goal appears to be high-impact letterforms that remain readable while adding immediate texture and a sense of age or grit.
Uppercase forms are particularly strong and sign-like, while lowercase keeps the same chunky structure and texture for cohesive mixed-case setting. The distressing is restrained enough to preserve legibility at display sizes, but it becomes a defining feature in larger words and short phrases.
