A heavy slab-serif design with compact counters, pronounced brackets, and a strongly inked, poster-like color. Strokes show noticeable contrast, with thick stems paired with sturdy slabs and rounded transitions that keep corners from feeling brittle. The lowercase has a large, prominent x-height and broad, open bowls, while descenders (notably in g, j, y) add a lively, slightly old-style rhythm. Numerals are weighty and rounded, designed to hold up at display sizes with clear silhouettes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding where you want maximum impact and a distinctive slab-serif voice. It also works well for packaging and editorial display settings, especially in short blocks of text where its dense color and strong serifs can carry a vintage or collegiate mood.
The overall tone is bold and declarative, with a nostalgic, print-driven character that recalls athletic and heritage signage as well as classic headline typography. Its chunky slabs and softened joins add warmth, making it feel confident rather than clinical.
The design appears intended to deliver a classic, slab-serif authority with a warm, printed feel—combining sturdy serifs and contrasted strokes to create high-impact display typography that remains readable and characterful in headline sizes.
The letterforms emphasize strong horizontals and substantial serifs, creating a stable baseline and a dense texture in paragraphs. Round shapes (O, C, o, e) are full and dark, and the overall spacing reads comfortable for a display face, with a consistent, authoritative rhythm.
