A slanted, low-contrast serif with sharp, wedge-like terminals and subtly flared strokes. The letterforms are built from squared curves and clipped corners, producing a slightly beveled, engineered look rather than round, calligraphic forms. Capitals are tall and commanding with compact counters and straight-sided geometry, while the lowercase maintains a steady, workmanlike rhythm with simplified bowls and brisk joins. Numerals follow the same squarish, athletic construction, keeping widths and curves tightly controlled for a cohesive texture.
This font is well suited to sports branding, team or event graphics, and punchy poster headlines where its slanted, angular forms convey speed and impact. It can also work for logos, labels, and packaging that want a retro-industrial voice. For longer copy, it is best used in short bursts or larger sizes to preserve clarity of the beveled details.
The overall tone reads energetic and competitive, with a retro-industrial attitude. Its slant and clipped details give it motion and urgency, while the serif treatment adds a traditional edge that keeps it from feeling purely techno. The result feels suited to bold, action-oriented messaging with a vintage flair.
The design appears intended to blend traditional serif cues with a modern, engineered silhouette, prioritizing strong presence and motion. Its construction suggests a focus on bold display communication—evoking competition, machinery, and vintage athletic typography—while maintaining a disciplined, consistent rhythm across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
Spacing and shapes emphasize strong silhouettes and consistent dark mass, making the face most convincing at display sizes where the corner cuts and wedge terminals are clearly visible. The squared bowls (notably in characters like C, G, O, and e) create a distinctive, slightly mechanical rhythm across lines of text.
