A condensed, right-leaning sans with a monoline feel and clean, streamlined construction. Curves are drawn with smooth elliptical geometry and open apertures, while joins stay crisp and uncluttered. Capitals are tall and compact with tight internal space, and the lowercase follows with restrained, simple forms and modest ascenders/descenders. Figures are similarly narrow and vertically oriented, creating a consistent, fast rhythm across text and display sizes.
Well-suited to headlines and short, high-impact copy where a compact footprint is valuable. It also fits sports and tech-oriented branding, packaging callouts, and wayfinding or editorial sidebars that benefit from a brisk, condensed italic voice.
The overall tone is energetic and utilitarian, suggesting speed, efficiency, and contemporary signage. Its tight stance and slanted posture give it a purposeful, forward-moving voice that reads as sporty and technical rather than decorative.
Likely designed to provide a space-saving italic sans that feels modern and fast, with smooth curves and a disciplined, no-frills structure. The emphasis appears to be on a strong vertical presence and consistent texture for bold titling and condensed settings.
The glyphs maintain a steady stroke presence without noticeable thick–thin modulation, keeping color even in lines of text. The condensed proportions and slant increase texture and density, so spacing and line length will strongly influence readability in longer passages.
