Freight Micro for headlines

G T

Hello all,

We’ve just redesigned (or more accurately - had redesigned) our magazine and the dude has chosen freight micro as our serif font, which is nice. I quite like it, its a bit all over the shop in a nice way. But when it is display size all these little bits of mess look most scruffy and awkard. I can just about get away with using it all caps, but I don’t like being constrained this way.

Could anyone kindly suggest some similar yet more suitable slabs for headlines so I may offer it to my bosses as a replacement?

It would be most appreciated.

Cheers,

G T
