Hoss Round XNarrow
An extra-narrow grotesque with subtle horizontal stroke contrast and rounded terminals, available in seven weights with matching italics.
About
Hoss Round XNarrow sits in an underexplored corner of the grotesque genre, combining a gentle reverse or horizontal contrast with softened terminals and stroke endings. The result reads as playful without losing the structural rigour needed for identity and packaging work. Fourteen styles span Light to Ultra across the XNarrow width, all with italic companions, and the family is part of a broader Hoss range covering additional weights and widths with wide language support.
Classification
Described explicitly as a grotesk, with horizontal stroke contrast (reverse contrast) and rounded terminals — a variant treatment within the grotesque genre rather than a departure from it.
