A heavy, compact sans with squared proportions and generously rounded outer corners, giving many glyphs a soft-rectangle silhouette. Strokes are thick and steady with clean terminals, and counters tend to be small, emphasizing a dense, high-impact color on the page. Many letters show deliberate cut-ins and notches (notably in C/S and several lowercase forms), creating a subtly stencil-like, engineered feel while maintaining straightforward, upright construction. Numerals follow the same robust, squared logic with simple geometry and minimal modulation.
Best suited to display applications such as headlines, posters, logos, sports and team graphics, packaging, and bold signage where dense letterforms improve presence and legibility at scale. It also works well for short UI labels or badges when used with ample size and spacing.
The overall tone is tough and direct, with a sporty-industrial edge that reads as confident and no-nonsense. Rounded corners keep it from feeling harsh, adding a friendly, mass-produced modernity reminiscent of athletic apparel, equipment labeling, and retro display typography.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact with a squared, rounded-rectangle construction and a consistent system of cut-ins that add character without introducing true ornament. It prioritizes boldness, clarity, and a mechanically styled rhythm suited to attention-grabbing editorial and branding contexts.
The font’s strong ink coverage and compact internal spaces favor larger sizes and short bursts of text where impact matters. The repeated notch/cut motif adds distinctive texture in headlines but can become visually busy if tightly tracked or used at small sizes.
