A compact, blocky oblique design with heavy strokes and squared-off construction throughout. Forms lean consistently to the right with a steady rhythm and minimal stroke modulation, producing a strong, uniform color in text. Corners are often chamfered rather than fully rounded, and the slab-like terminals read as flat, sturdy caps that reinforce a mechanical feel. Counters are relatively tight and rectangular, with simplified, geometric joins that favor stability over softness.
Well-suited to sports branding, team apparel, and bold headline systems where a condensed, impact-driven voice is needed. It also fits posters, product packaging, and labels that benefit from an industrial or performance aesthetic, especially when set in short phrases or stacked compositions.
The overall tone is forceful and energetic, with an athletic, engineered character that feels built for impact. Its oblique stance and squared detailing suggest speed and toughness, while the rigid geometry adds an industrial, utilitarian edge. The impression is confident and slightly retro, reminiscent of performance lettering and equipment marking.
The letterforms appear designed to deliver high-impact readability with a fast, forward-leaning stance and a rugged, engineered finish. The squared terminals and compact proportions aim to hold their shape under heavy weight, creating a robust display face for branding and emphatic titles.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent, squared skeleton, keeping mixed-case text cohesive and punchy. Numerals follow the same angular logic, with broad, flat terminals and compact interior spaces that prioritize visual weight and presence. The design’s tight apertures and heavy mass make it most comfortable at larger sizes or with generous tracking when used in text blocks.
