A heavy, forward-leaning slab serif with chunky proportions and tightly carved, angular joins. Strokes end in flat, squared terminals and slab-like feet that read as cut-on facets rather than smooth curves, giving the forms a machined, stencil-adjacent feel. Counters are compact and often polygonal, and many curves appear chamfered into straight segments, producing a crisp, blocky rhythm. The weight distribution stays broadly consistent, with sharp interior notches and small cut-ins that help open up dense shapes at display sizes.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, team or event branding, and logo wordmarks. It also works well on packaging and labels where a rugged, industrial-leaning voice is desired, especially at medium-to-large sizes where the angular details stay crisp.
The overall tone is bold and energetic, with a vintage athletic and workwear attitude. Its angular slabbing and hard corners suggest toughness and speed, leaning toward competition, utility, and branded hardware aesthetics rather than refinement.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact through dense, slabbed construction and chiseled geometry, combining a vintage athletic slant with hard-edged, industrial detailing. The compact counters and faceted cuts suggest a focus on strong silhouette and legibility under bold display use.
Uppercase letters read strongly as signage-style blocks, while the lowercase keeps the same faceted construction and maintains an intentionally tight, compact texture in words. Numerals match the same squared, sporty geometry and feel designed to hold up in impactful settings where clarity and punch matter most.
