A heavy, right-slanted slab-serif with compact proportions and chunky, square-ended serifs. Strokes are broadly uniform with minimal modulation, giving the letterforms a dense, poster-like color. The serifs read as strong rectangular blocks with little to no bracketing, and many joins and corners are cut with subtle chamfers that keep shapes crisp under weight. Counters are relatively tight and apertures are narrowed, producing a sturdy, condensed impression while maintaining clear uppercase silhouettes.
Best suited for headlines, team or event branding, posters, apparel graphics, and bold labeling where impact and a rugged voice are desired. It can work for short subheads and callouts, especially in high-contrast layouts, but is less ideal for long text blocks due to its heavy color and compact internal space.
The overall tone is forceful and energetic, with a sporty, workwear feel that recalls vintage athletic lettering and bold industrial signage. Its slanted stance and blocky slabs add urgency and motion while staying grounded and tough.
Designed to deliver maximum punch with a confident slanted rhythm, combining squared slabs and low-modulation strokes for a strong, durable presence. The emphasis appears to be on bold recognition and an unmistakably retro-sport/industrial character in display applications.
The numerals and capitals carry the same squared, high-mass construction as the lowercase, creating a consistent texture across mixed-case settings. The density and tight counters favor larger sizes where the strong silhouette and slab details can read cleanly.
