I was hired to redesign the numerals of a set of Nike typefaces for NHFS (high school sports) jerseys. What was needed were heavier versions of the numbers to meet minimum stroke width specifications set by the association. Below are 3 examples out of 15 different fonts I worked on.

Because the numbers are printed at different sizes on either side of the jersey (at 4” height on front and 6” height on back typically), I was tasked with designing specifically for each size, while maintaining the minimum stroke width of .75” for each weight.
