: Proper term for a font with the same thickness for all strokes? I'm looking at placing numbers on sports equipment and need a font with numbers that maintain the same parallel width or thickness

@Caterina889

In general, searching almost any font service for words like athletic, college, jersey, and sports will often turn up many options. This is due to the nature of usage, which is often close to what you seem to be in need of as well.

Other common terms may be Slab Serif or Monoline depending upon your actual desired appearance.

A few suggestions:


Yearbook Solid
Undergrad
YWTF League
Industry Inc
Player
Ringo
Gin
Prohibition

The first type of font that comes to mind for sports jerseys and equipment is a "college" style font. dafont has a lot of this available for free under the Old School category, or just search for "college". Here are a few that seem to meed your criteria:

Jersey M54



Allstar



Varsity



If you're looking for a different style, consider browsing the monoline tag on MyFonts or search for sports jersey. One of the first results for me is more of a "Euro" style but would look nice on the back of a jersey.

The fonts designed for drafting (technical lettering) have this property as they were standardized for technical pens that make uniform lines. You can find some of these by searching for isofont. Theres even a nice open source version with really broad implementation called osifont.

Fontforge allows you o make these fonts out of unclosed lines so you can change thickness later if you need to.

Several variations of iso and asme standard fonts, exist ive even made my own when i happened to be cut of from most of humanity and had no suitable font with the specific glyph i needed ( made the fonts with notepad).
