A heavy, forward-leaning slab serif with compact proportions and a distinctly sculpted silhouette. Strokes are broad and confident, with subtle contrast and chunky, bracketed slabs that often read as beveled blocks rather than sharp terminals. Many joins and corners show small notches and scooped cut-ins, giving the forms a carved, slightly stepped look that adds texture at display sizes. Counters are tight and rounded, spacing is visually dense, and the overall rhythm is energetic, with strong diagonals and an emphatic baseline presence.
Best suited to display settings such as posters, titles, team or event branding, and logo wordmarks where its mass and motion can work at larger sizes. It also fits packaging and promotional graphics that need a bold, retro-leaning voice; for long text or small UI copy, the dense spacing and stylized notches may feel heavy.
The tone feels retro and high-impact, like classic signage or athletic branding where boldness and motion matter. Its italic slant and chiseled details add a spirited, slightly mischievous character that reads as loud, confident, and attention-seeking rather than refined or quiet.
The design appears intended to deliver a forceful italic slab look with a distinctive carved detailing—combining signage-style sturdiness with added visual flair for branding and headline impact.
Digit shapes are hefty and simplified, matching the blocky letterforms for strong numeric presence in headlines. The distinctive corner cut-ins can reduce clarity at small sizes, but they provide recognizable personality and a consistent texture across the alphabet.
