A slanted, heavy sans with softly rounded geometry and smooth, continuous curves. Strokes are broadly uniform with minimal modulation, producing a solid, even color in text. Counters are relatively open for a bold style, while terminals tend to be clean and slightly softened rather than sharply cut. Proportions are compact with a steady rhythm, and the figures and capitals read clearly with straightforward, contemporary forms.
Best suited to display roles where strong impact and momentum are helpful, such as headlines, posters, and sports-leaning branding. It also works for packaging callouts and short UI labels where a bold, approachable emphasis is needed, while long-form text may feel dense at smaller sizes due to the heavy weight.
The overall tone feels energetic and forward-leaning, with a sporty, action-oriented cadence driven by the consistent slant and strong weight. Its rounded construction keeps it approachable, balancing assertiveness with a friendly, modern character.
The design appears intended to deliver a clean, contemporary italic voice with strong presence and legibility, combining rounded, simple shapes with a consistent forward slant for a sense of speed and confidence.
The italic angle is consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals, giving lines a cohesive, streamlined flow. Round letters (like O/C/G) appear smoothly drawn and stable, while diagonals (like A/V/W/X) feel sturdy and emphatic, supporting punchy headline settings.
