A heavy, forward-leaning slab serif with an aggressively angular construction and squared, flat-ended terminals. Strokes read largely monoline, but the design introduces chiseled cuts, bevels, and wedge-like notches at joins and corners, giving the letterforms a faceted, mechanical look. Counters tend toward squarish openings, and many curves are interpreted as segmented arcs rather than smooth rounds. The overall rhythm is compact and punchy, with strong horizontal slabs and clipped diagonals that keep silhouettes tight and graphic at display sizes.
This font is well suited to sports branding, team marks, apparel graphics, and bold poster headlines where its angular slabs and slanted momentum can read as power and speed. It can also work for packaging, labels, and event promotions that benefit from an industrial, high-impact typographic voice. Use generous sizing and spacing to let the faceted details stay clear.
The tone is forceful and energetic, evoking competition lettering, industrial labeling, and action-oriented branding. Its oblique stance and sharp detailing add urgency and motion, while the sturdy slabs communicate toughness and stability. The overall impression is bold, no-nonsense, and slightly retro in a way that recalls athletic and utility aesthetics.
The design appears intended to merge slab-serif solidity with a dynamic oblique stance and machined, chamfered detailing. It prioritizes strong silhouettes and a cohesive, angular texture in text, aiming for a rugged, action-ready presence in display typography.
Numerals and capitals emphasize octagonal/rectilinear geometry, producing distinctive silhouettes that remain readable but stylized. The italic angle is consistent across cases, and the repeated chamfered corners create a unified texture in words and headlines. At smaller sizes, the interior notches and sharp facets may visually fill in, so it naturally favors larger settings.
