A heavy, block-built slab design with squared structure and pronounced chamfered corners that create an octagonal silhouette throughout. Strokes are uniformly thick with minimal modulation, producing dense, compact counters and a strong, even color on the page. Serifs read as bold, integrated slabs with flat terminals; many joins and interior notches feel mechanically cut, giving a slightly stencil-like impression without breaking the letters apart. Lowercase forms are sturdy and simplified with a large x-height, while figures and capitals keep a broad, sign-like footprint and tight internal apertures.
Best suited to display use such as headlines, posters, team or event graphics, logos, and bold packaging where its thick strokes and angular detailing can read clearly. It can also work for short callouts and labels that benefit from a rugged, high-impact voice, especially when set with comfortable tracking and ample line spacing.
The overall tone is assertive and hardworking, with a classic poster-and-signage energy. Its angular cuts and chunky slabs suggest athletic lettering, western storefront typography, and industrial labeling—confident, loud, and meant to be seen at a distance.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum impact with a compact, carved-looking geometry—combining slab-like sturdiness with chamfered, sign-painter cuts for a vintage display feel. Its simplified, high-x-height lowercase supports bold text blocks while keeping the overall voice emphatic and unmistakably graphic.
The design emphasizes straight edges, clipped curves, and deep ink traps/notches at some joins, which adds texture in large settings. Small punctuation and interior counters appear tight and may rely on generous size or spacing to stay crisp in dense lines.
