Using League Spartan on a website
Sizes
League Spartan is a headline face: use it from about 28px up, for headings, hero lines and short labels, and set paragraphs in a calmer partner.
Spacing
At large sizes, set line height between 1.0 and 1.2 and tighten letter spacing slightly (around -0.01em to -0.02em); in all capitals, loosen it instead (around +0.02em to +0.05em).
Loading
This page loads 400 and 700. Load only the weights you actually use: every extra weight is another file before text can render in it. Self-hosting with next/font, or font-display: swap with the Google Fonts CSS, keeps text visible while it loads.
League Spartan is free on Google Fonts, where you can see every weight and style it comes in.
