A heavy, block-built slab serif with squared, flat-ended terminals and prominent bracketless serifs. Corners are consistently chamfered, producing an octagonal silhouette in rounds like C, G, O, and 0, while counters stay relatively tight and sturdy. Stroke joins and internal angles are crisp and geometric, with a compact rhythm and clear, poster-like spacing that keeps forms punchy at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, titles, posters, and brand marks where strong presence and legibility at a distance matter. It fits sports and collegiate identities, Western-inspired graphics, labels, and packaging that benefit from a rugged, stamped look. Use in short text or emphasized phrases; its dense color can become heavy in extended copy.
The overall tone is bold and no-nonsense, with a familiar collegiate and old-west flavor. Its squared slabs and clipped corners give it an industrial toughness, reading as confident, slightly vintage, and attention-grabbing in headlines.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual weight with a disciplined geometric system: square slabs, clipped corners, and compact proportions that preserve clarity while projecting strength. It aims for a classic display voice that bridges collegiate block lettering and traditional poster typography.
Uppercase forms feel particularly architectural, while the lowercase maintains the same block logic with strong vertical stress and minimal modulation. Numerals match the octagonal styling, and the overall texture stays dark and even, favoring impact over delicacy in longer passages.
