A blocky, geometric display face built from chamfered, near-octagonal forms and straight segments. The drawing is constructed as an outline with a consistent outer contour and generous interior counters, producing a hollow, sign-like color. Corners are clipped rather than rounded, and many curves are faceted into angled turns (notably in C/G/O/Q and the numerals), giving a mechanical, engineered rhythm. Uppercase is wide and sturdy; lowercase retains the same angular construction with compact, simplified bowls and distinctive, squared terminals. Numerals follow the same athletic, cut-corner logic, with the 0 rendered as an octagonal ring and the 8 formed by stacked, faceted counters.
Well-suited to sports-themed branding, varsity marks, event posters, and high-impact headlines where the outlined, hollow construction can be filled with color or overprinted. It also works for retro game/arcade graphics and bold packaging or signage that benefits from a strong, faceted silhouette.
The font conveys a vintage athletic and scoreboard feel with an arcade-like edge. Its outlined construction reads loud and emblematic, suggesting team lettering, uniforms, and bold signage rather than quiet text typography.
The design appears intended to reinterpret classic collegiate/athletic lettering in an outlined, faceted style, emphasizing strong silhouettes, consistent cut corners, and a graphic presence that holds up in large display applications.
Stroke joins and terminals are consistently clipped, creating a cohesive stencilless outline look that stays legible at larger sizes. The open interiors and faceted curves create strong texture in all-caps settings, while the lowercase keeps a casual, collegiate tone without becoming cursive or calligraphic.
