A heavy, block-oriented slab serif with broad proportions and tightly packed internal counters. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, and the serifs are blunt, square-ended, and largely unbracketed, giving the letterforms a machined, built-up feel. Curves (notably in C, G, O, and S) are robust and slightly squared in their transitions, while joins and terminals stay crisp and flat. The lowercase shows a strong, compact rhythm with a sturdy two-storey g and a short-armed r, and the numerals are wide, bold, and highly legible with simple, straight-sided construction.
Best suited to headlines, signage, posters, and branding where a forceful, highly legible presence is needed. It can also work well for packaging and label-style applications that benefit from a classic slab-serif sturdiness, and for collegiate or sports-oriented identity systems that need bold, blocky typography.
The overall tone is confident and no-nonsense, with a vintage, workwear energy that reads as dependable and emphatic. Its chunky slabs and compact counters add a slightly rugged, poster-forward personality suited to bold statements rather than delicate nuance.
This font appears designed to deliver maximum impact with a stable, constructed silhouette—prioritizing solidity, readability, and a bold, timeless slab-serif character for attention-driven display typography.
Spacing and sidebearings appear designed for strong word shapes in display sizes, with dense color and sturdy silhouette definition. The ampersand and punctuation in the sample text match the same squared, heavyweight logic, reinforcing a consistent, utilitarian voice across mixed-case settings.
