A robust slab-serif design with heavy, rectangular serifs and a distinctly chamfered, octagonal construction throughout. Strokes are mostly straight and planar, with corners clipped rather than rounded, giving counters and exterior silhouettes a faceted look (notably in O, C, G, and the numerals). The rhythm is steady and compact, with blunt terminals, strong verticals, and minimal curvature; joins stay crisp and angular. Lowercase forms follow the same hard-edged logic, with short, squared shoulders and a utilitarian, built-up texture in text.
Well-suited to headlines and short blocks of display text where its chamfered slabs and sturdy structure can read clearly. It fits sports and collegiate branding, badges and team marks, as well as packaging, labels, and signage that benefit from a strong, traditional, high-impact texture.
The overall tone is bold and no-nonsense, projecting a collegiate and workmanlike character with a vintage, letterpress-adjacent presence. Its faceted geometry adds a slightly mechanical, signage-like flavor that feels assertive and traditional rather than delicate or casual.
Likely designed to deliver an assertive slab-serif voice with a distinctive octagonal, chamfered theme, balancing classic collegiate signage cues with a more engineered, industrial edge.
The figures and capitals read especially well as emblematic, with many glyphs showing consistent corner clipping that creates a cohesive ‘cut-metal’ silhouette. In running text the dense color and strong serifs produce a solid, poster-ready voice, while the angular details remain visible at display sizes.
