A heavy slab serif with broad proportions, compact counters, and a strong horizontal emphasis. Strokes are largely even, with stout, rectangular slab terminals and subtly bracketed joins that keep corners from feeling brittle. The lowercase shows a tall x-height and sturdy, single-storey forms, while round letters (o, e, c) are wide and open for the weight. Overall rhythm is chunky and steady, reading as a modern, simplified slab with a slightly softened, ink-trap-like squareness at some inner corners.
Best suited to headlines and short-to-medium display copy where its weight and slabs can anchor a layout—posters, banners, sports or team-style branding, packaging fronts, and bold editorial openers. It can work for brief UI or label text when contrast and spacing are managed, but it is most effective where impact is the priority.
The tone is bold and assertive with a practical, workmanlike character. It carries a collegiate/athletic poster energy mixed with an industrial, sign-ready solidity, giving text a blunt, confident voice.
Likely designed to deliver maximum visual punch with a sturdy slab-serif framework, combining wide letterforms, simplified details, and a high x-height for immediate readability in display contexts. The softened joins and blocky terminals suggest an aim for durable, print-and-sign friendly shapes rather than delicate typographic nuance.
The numerals are wide and block-driven, matching the caps’ strong horizontal slabs and keeping a consistent color in runs of text. At display sizes the dense weight and tight interior spaces create a powerful, compact texture that benefits from generous tracking and leading.
