The Android Wear UI Toolkit recommends in multiple places to use "ROBOTO LIGHT CONDENSED" or "Roboto Condensed Light". (In the pdf pages: 11, 14, 16, 17).

However, as far as I can tell, the only default fonts available are the ones listed here. Specifically:

android:fontFamily="sans-serif-light"     // roboto light
android:fontFamily="sans-serif-condensed" // roboto condensed

From the typography page, I see that "Roboto Condensed Light" is an actual font.

Is there a way to use this font in Android Wear? Also, any reason why this would not be a default font when it is recommended in the UI toolkit?

I found my answer. fonts.xml is the definitive list for all system fonts. As mentioned in another SO thread.

So, for anyone wondering, this is the font mentioned in the UI Toolkit.

android:fontFamily="sans-serif-condensed-light"
