A condensed, all-caps–friendly display face built from straight-sided, chamfered strokes and squared curves that read as octagonal. Stems are heavy and uniform, with a consistent inline channel running through the interior of each stroke, creating a hollowed, sign-painter-like striping effect. Curves (C, G, O, Q) are constructed from faceted arcs rather than true rounds, and terminals are typically clipped at angles, reinforcing a mechanical, badge-like geometry. Spacing and proportions feel compact and vertical, with simple, utilitarian lowercase forms that largely echo the uppercase structure.
This font works best as a display face for sports identities, event posters, headlines, badges, and packaging where a strong, compact silhouette is needed. The inline detailing provides extra texture at larger sizes, making it suitable for logos, jersey-style graphics, and bold titling rather than long reading text.
The overall tone is sporty and assertive, with a retro scoreboard and team-marking flavor. The faceted geometry and in-stroke striping add an engineered, industrial character that feels at home in bold branding and high-contrast signage.
The design appears intended to combine a condensed, high-impact block structure with an internal inline to add depth and ornament without sacrificing the sturdy outline. Its faceted curves and clipped corners suggest a goal of evoking athletic lettering and industrial signage in a clean, systematized way.
The inline cut follows the stroke contour closely, producing a double-line rhythm that stays consistent across letters and numerals. Numerals are similarly angular and compact, matching the blocky construction and making the set feel cohesive for headings and large-format copy.
