A slanted sans with compact, rounded construction and sturdy, even-weight strokes. Curves are smooth and geometric, counters are relatively open, and terminals are clean and unembellished, giving the letterforms a crisp, contemporary silhouette. The overall rhythm is tight and forward-leaning, with straightforward joins and minimal detailing that keeps word shapes solid and high-impact at display sizes.
Works best where impact and motion matter: headlines, posters, and large typographic callouts. It’s also well-suited to branding and packaging that want a sporty, contemporary voice, and for apparel or event graphics where bold, forward-leaning typography helps convey momentum.
The tone is energetic and driven, with a dynamic forward motion that reads as sporty and confident. Its heavy presence and clean geometry convey a modern, no-nonsense attitude suited to attention-grabbing messaging.
Likely designed to provide a forceful, modern italic voice with geometric clarity and strong visual density. The emphasis appears to be on quick recognition and punch in display contexts rather than delicate nuance.
The numeral set matches the letters with simple, robust forms; rounded figures (0, 6, 8, 9) stay very smooth while angled figures (4, 7) keep a sharp, fast feel. In text, the strong slant and dense color create a prominent texture, making it better for short bursts than long-form reading at small sizes.
