A heavy, angular serif design built from broad strokes with crisp chamfered corners and faceted terminals. The serifs are wedge-like and pointed, creating a carved, beveled silhouette rather than rounded or bracketed transitions. Counters tend toward squarish forms (notably in O and 0), and many joins show small notches and cut-ins that read like subtle ink-traps, reinforcing a rugged, stamp-like construction. Uppercase forms are tall and blocky with pronounced, squared geometry, while the lowercase keeps the same sharp-edged logic and compact, sturdy proportions.
Well suited to sports and school branding, team marks, apparel graphics, and bold editorial headlines where a classic, high-impact voice is needed. It also works effectively for signage and poster titling that benefits from an engraved, old-school presence.
The font projects a traditional, institutional tone with a strong poster heritage. Its hard corners and chiseled detailing evoke classic signage and athletic lettering, giving it a confident, no-nonsense character with a vintage edge.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, traditional display serif with an athletic/signpainting flavor, using chamfers and pointed wedges to create a recognizable, emblem-ready texture and a commanding typographic voice.
In text, the dense color and tight interior spaces make it most comfortable at display sizes, where the small cut-ins and pointed serifs remain distinct. Numerals follow the same octagonal, athletic rhythm, maintaining consistency across headings and set-piece typography.
