A heavy, oblique sans with compact proportions and rounded, full counters. Strokes are thick and even, with softened corners and subtle tapering at terminals that keeps the shapes lively without feeling sharp. Uppercase forms are sturdy and slightly condensed in feel, while the lowercase shows a large, dominant x-height and simplified constructions that stay legible at display sizes. Numerals are bold and friendly, matching the rounded, forward-leaning rhythm of the letters.
Best suited for attention-first typography such as headlines, posters, promotional graphics, and bold pull quotes. It also fits branding contexts that want speed and impact—sports teams, events, activewear, or energetic packaging—where a compact, rounded italic can carry strong personality.
The overall tone is energetic and assertive, with a forward motion that reads as active and performance-oriented. Its rounded mass and tight spacing give it a punchy, upbeat presence that can also nod to mid-century or classic sports branding.
Likely designed to deliver maximum impact in a compact footprint while keeping letterforms approachable through rounded geometry. The consistent heft and forward lean suggest an intention toward motion, emphasis, and brandable display typography rather than text-first neutrality.
The slant and heavy weight create strong word-shape momentum, especially in longer lines, where the texture becomes dense and graphic. Curves remain open enough for clarity, but the boldness favors short to medium settings over extended reading.
