A heavy, forward-slanted sans with broad proportions and rounded, softly cornered forms. Strokes stay visually even, with smooth curves in bowls and counters and a generally geometric construction, while terminals are clean and blunt rather than tapered. The wide set and tight interior spaces create dense, high-ink silhouettes; uppercase forms feel sturdy and block-like, and the lowercase carries similar weight with a compact, muscular rhythm. Numerals match the overall heft and slant, reading best at larger sizes where counters and joins have room to breathe.
Best suited to headlines, short calls-to-action, and display settings where its mass and slant can do the work—posters, sports or fitness branding, energetic campaigns, packaging fronts, and event promotion. It can also function for bold logotypes or wordmarks where a compact, high-impact presence is desired.
The overall tone is fast, assertive, and attention-grabbing, with a sporty, poster-like energy. Its strong slant and chunky shapes give it a dynamic, retro-leaning personality that feels geared toward impact rather than subtlety.
Designed to deliver maximum visual punch with a cohesive, motion-forward silhouette. The wide stance, heavy color, and rounded geometry suggest an intention to feel modern and sporty while remaining simple and highly legible at display sizes.
The combination of broad letterforms, tight apertures in some characters, and extreme weight can reduce clarity in long text or small sizes, but it contributes to a bold, cohesive texture in headlines. The italic angle is consistent across letters and figures, supporting a sense of motion and urgency.
