Offense FONT Download

Offense was designed by Michael Jarboe and published by Reserves. Offense contains 8 styles and family package options.  

Offense is an unyielding rectangular slab-serif face designed with consistently balanced letterforms and a refined finish. It's extremely angular geometric form commands attention in display settings, yet is also legible in short text blocks.

Numerous alternate character sets allow room for customization, while the expanded ligatures push letter combinations to the limit.

Stylistically, Offense's almost crude, sharp-cornered construction is balanced by it's sophisticated finish and attention to detail, often unrealized in similar faces of this genre. The upright weights are complimented by pairings of true italics, completely rebuilt, slightly narrower in width with modified letterforms, increasing their contrast and flow.
