A heavy, block-built slab serif with softened corners and an inset inline channel that carves through most strokes, creating a dimensional, cut-out look. The letterforms are broad with sturdy verticals, squared terminals, and compact apertures, balancing straight geometry with rounded internal corners. Curves (C, G, O, 0) are squarish and box-rounded, while diagonals (V, W, Z, 4, 7) stay thick and assertive. The inline detail is consistently placed and reads as a routed groove, giving the face a layered, sign-painted feel at display sizes.
Best suited for display typography such as headlines, posters, team or event branding, logos, badges, and punchy packaging. It also works well for short labels and UI/game titles where a strong, stylized wordmark is more important than long-form readability.
The font projects a bold, high-impact tone with a vintage athletic and industrial signage flavor. Its carved inline suggests machined lettering, arcade/scoreboard energy, and a slightly rugged, workwear character that feels confident and attention-seeking.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual weight while adding built-in ornament through an internal groove, producing a dimensional effect without needing outlines or shadows. It prioritizes impact and a crafted, routed-metal or sign-lettering aesthetic over text economy.
Counters and joins tend to be tight, and the inline detailing adds visual texture that can fill in at smaller sizes or in dense settings. The numerals follow the same squared, engineered construction, maintaining a cohesive, poster-ready rhythm across letters and figures.
