A condensed, heavy sans with a pronounced forward slant and tight internal spacing. Strokes are broadly uniform with minimal modulation, producing solid, poster-like color. Curves and terminals are softened into rounded-rectangle forms, keeping counters compact while maintaining a smooth, controlled contour. The overall rhythm is vertical and compressed, with sturdy joins and short apertures that favor impact over openness.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, sports and fitness branding, packaging callouts, and bold signage. It also works well for labels, UI promo banners, and any context where a condensed, slanted voice helps fit more characters while maintaining strong emphasis.
The font projects speed and force—energetic, assertive, and slightly aggressive in a way that reads as athletic or industrial. Its oblique stance adds motion and urgency, making text feel active and attention-seeking rather than neutral or editorial.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact in limited horizontal space, combining a compressed build with a forward-leaning stance for motion. Rounded-rectangle shaping keeps the boldness from feeling overly harsh, aiming for a contemporary, engineered tone that remains readable at display sizes.
Uppercase forms are tall and packed, and the numerals share the same compact, sturdy construction, helping mixed alphanumeric settings feel consistent. At longer lines, the dense width and dark texture can build intensity quickly, making spacing and size choices important to preserve clarity.
