Square athletic capitals with chamfered bowls, hooked J and small slab feet
Jersey
Jersey is a square athletic slab in which the capitals clip their corners, the O chamfers into an octagon, the J hooks under its stem and small slab feet sit flat, so a team name reads as a stadium board.

Visual anatomy & craft review
Letterform structure
of Jersey.
The J hooks a short tail leftward, the O cuts four corners into a soft octagon, the R drops an angular leg and every stem ends in a small slab projection with an offset edging line around the whole title. The chamfer is the character: it keeps a square letter from looking mechanical, which is why the sample sets one word with a light offset edge. Because the feet are small, the face holds from 30 pt and cuts from three quarters of an inch of cap height; the bottom caption advertises numbers, so check their actual forms in the file. The baseball, helmet and ribbon behind the title are artwork; the blue athletic letters are the face.

Banner for a varsity fixture
The chamfered caps read from the far touchline, and the square forms stay solid at 110 mm on a printed vinyl banner in two inks.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a two-metre banner: set the headline at 110 mm, set the fixture details in a 30 mm caps beneath, and keep 45 mm of border so the offset edging is not lost to the hem.
Pre-production check
An offset edge printed under 1 mm disappears at distance; check the finished banner and keep the edging at 2 mm.
Jersey print for a junior team
The athletic slabs suit fabric, and the square cut keeps the name crisp at 75 mm across a printed cotton chest in one ink.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 300 mm chest print: set the name at 75 mm, keep the slab feet at 4 mm of ink minimum, and leave 40 mm of clear fabric below for the player number.
Pre-production check
A slab foot under 3 mm fills in on a screen print; check the film at full size and thicken the foot.
Sign for a sports club entrance
The stadium tone suits a doorway sign, and the clipped capitals stay legible at 55 mm on a painted plate in one flat colour.
Hierarchy & layout recipe
Print a 600 by 200 mm plate: set the club name at 55 mm, keep 25 mm of border all round, and set the opening hours in a 12 pt caps at the right end of it.
Pre-production check
A chamfered corner printed to the plate edge looks sheared; check the mounted sign and keep 20 mm of margin.

Vintage Glory
Vintage Glory is a layered varsity slab in red and navy on cream: heavy square serifs, notched corners, a solid extrusion behind every letter that steps down and right, and a round badge with a ball seam, so the two words read as a printed sports pennant rather than a flat headline.

Football Jersey
Football Jersey presents solid white athletic capitals on charcoal inside a double frame, where the O bowls have cut-off corners, the T and J carry broad rectangular terminals and the two rows keep an even dense rhythm with almost no space between the letters.
