A heavy, right-slanted serif with sharply faceted strokes and pronounced chamfered corners. The letterforms are built from straight segments and clipped terminals, creating a beveled, almost cut-from-metal silhouette rather than smooth curves. Serifs are small and wedge-like, with frequent notches at joins that read like ink-trap cuts, helping counters stay open in the dense weight. Uppercase forms are compact and blocky, while lowercase retains clear differentiation with sturdy stems and simplified bowls; numerals follow the same angular, sports-signage construction.
Best suited to display work such as sports identities, team or club marks, event posters, merchandise graphics, and punchy editorial headlines. It can also work for packaging or signage where a rugged, high-impact wordmark is needed, particularly at medium to large sizes.
The overall tone feels forceful and energetic, evoking athletic branding, motorsport graphics, and retro poster lettering. Its sharp facets and forward lean add urgency and motion, giving headlines a tough, competitive voice.
The design appears intended to merge traditional serif structure with a modern, machined, athletic aesthetic—using angled cuts, wedge serifs, and deliberate notches to keep the forms crisp, aggressive, and readable at display sizes.
Rhythm is driven by diagonal stress and repeated clipped corners, producing a cohesive texture that stays legible in short bursts but becomes visually insistent in long passages. The bold presence and tight internal shapes reward generous tracking and ample line spacing, especially in mixed-case settings.
