Regular Inline
A2-Type · 2019
A single-weight inline display slab, drawn originally as a custom brand typeface for The Athletic sports news site in 2019.
About
Cut from the same cloth as A2-Type's Regular Slab, this inline variant strips the family back to one Bold weight and adds an inline stroke treatment suited to large headline settings. It was created as a bespoke brand typeface for The Athletic, art directed by Gretel Design and Strategy Studio in Brooklyn. Its application is narrow: editorial display, sports branding and signage where the inline detail can read clearly at scale.
Classification
Derived from Regular Slab, this is a display slab serif with inline stroke detailing, designed for headline use. The inline treatment and slab serifs place it firmly in the display subcategory.
