A heavy, right-leaning serif design with compact, squared-off bowls and pronounced angled cuts throughout. Serifs read as sharp wedge-like flares rather than delicate brackets, and many joins show notched or ink-trap-like scoops that create a punchy, industrial rhythm. Curves are tightened into squarish rounds (notably in O/C/G and the numerals), while diagonals and crossbars carry a consistent forward motion. The texture is dense and inky, with relatively small interior counters and a purposeful, constructed feel that stays consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited for display work where impact matters: sports identities, team or event graphics, bold editorial headlines, posters, and apparel marks. The dense color and tight counters favor larger sizes, where the carved-in details and wedge serifs can read clearly.
The overall tone is bold and action-oriented, mixing a vintage athletic headline feel with a slightly mechanical, hard-edged attitude. Its forward slant and chiseled details give it momentum and a confident, competitive voice suited to attention-grabbing messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver a forceful, energetic serif voice with an italicized drive and distinctive carved terminals, balancing retro athletic cues with a deliberately engineered, decorative edge.
Uppercase forms are broad-shouldered and blocky, while the lowercase keeps a robust, compact profile; both share the same angular terminal logic. Numerals echo the squared geometry and cut-in details, helping maintain a cohesive display texture across mixed content.
