LL Hoboken High
Lineto · Nico Schweizer · 1998
A locker-room display typeface in sans and slab serif cuts, originally released in 1998 and designed by Nico Schweizer out of Hoboken, NJ.
About
Designed while Schweizer was based in Hoboken, the typeface carries the constructed, blocky character of sports jerseys and institutional signage. Available in both sans and slab serif variants since its 1998 release, it is currently being expanded to four cuts. The family suits display work where a bold, athletic register is required.
Classification
The family includes both a sans and a slab serif cut, both with a geometric, constructed character typical of display-oriented sports and institutional lettering. The sans is the primary classification given its dominant use in the page specimens.
