Outlined collegiate slabs paired with a thick connected script
Frestype Atlethic Duo
Frestype Atlethic Duo pairs orange slab capitals with a cream connected script, where the slab row arches and carries a fine edge and the script below joins roundly, opens a broad sweeping A and flows loosely through a final c.

Visual anatomy & craft review
Letterform structure
of Frestype Atlethic Duo.
The slabs stay heavy with a thin outline, the arch lifts the upper row, the script joins broadly and two letters stretch beyond the rest. The contest between an outlined slab and a thick script is the character: one row reads as a jersey, the other as a signature, which is why the cover splits them across two lines. The listing name and the specimen spelling differ, so keep the saved identity and do not rewrite it; the ligature and multilingual captions are source claims rather than demonstrated coverage.

Concrete hierarchy, scale and production guidance tailored to Frestype Atlethic Duo’s stroke geometry.
Shirt graphic for a sports club
The outlined slabs suit a club jersey, and the two rows hold at 90 mm and 60 mm on a printed transfer in two colours, where the fine outline survives at that scale.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 280 mm transfer: set the club word at 90 mm in arched slabs, set the motto at 60 mm in the script beneath with 18 mm of clear ground, and keep 20 mm of clear edge around both rows.
Pre-production check
A thin outline over a heavy slab fills in when printed small; check the transfer proof at half size.
Card for a sports party
The jersey row and signature row make a party card lively, and both fit at 34 pt and 24 pt on an A6 sheet, with the arch dropped so the two rows stay apart.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print an A6 card: set the age word at 34 pt in the slabs, set the invitation at 24 pt in the script beneath with 14 mm of clear ground, and keep 12 mm of margin so the sweeping A stays inside.
Pre-production check
The arch and the script headline compete on a small card; check the card and keep the upper row straight.
Title for a sports feature
The outlined slabs carry a feature title, and the pairing holds a two-word heading at 50 pt on a printed page, leaving a clean deck line in the script beneath.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 210 mm page: set the heading at 50 pt in the slabs, set the deck line at 20 pt in the script beneath with 16 mm of clear ground, and keep 20 mm beneath for the standfirst at 10 pt.
Pre-production check
Two display rows above a standfirst can crowd the top; check the page and open the space under the deck line.
