This typeface is a heavy, oblique sans with broad proportions and rounded, softly squared contours. Strokes are strongly weighted with smooth curves and minimal modulation, and many terminals feel blunt rather than sharply sheared, giving the letters a sturdy, cohesive silhouette. Counters are relatively open for the weight, while joins and bowls stay compact and tight, producing a dense, poster-like color. The lowercase shows a single-storey “a” and “g”, a tall, simple “t”, and generally short extenders relative to the large x-height; numerals are similarly bold and rounded, designed to hold up at large sizes.
Best suited to headlines, display typography, and short bursts of copy where impact and immediacy matter—such as posters, sports and fitness branding, event promotions, and packaging. It also works well for large UI moments like hero banners or section headers, where the slanted, bold forms can signal action and emphasis.
The overall tone is energetic and assertive, with a contemporary, sporty flavor. Its rounded massing keeps it approachable despite the heavy weight, making it feel bold and upbeat rather than severe. The consistent slant adds motion and urgency, suggesting speed, action, and emphasis.
The design appears intended as a high-impact display sans that combines strong presence with friendly, rounded geometry. The oblique stance and broad proportions prioritize energy and visibility, aiming to deliver a modern, athletic voice that remains legible and cohesive in bold settings.
In the sample text, the heavy weight and tight internal spacing create a strong typographic block, with the oblique angle providing forward momentum. Round letters like O/C/S read as smooth and full, while diagonals (V/W/X/Y) appear muscular and stable. The design favors impact and clarity over delicate detail.
