A heavy, right-slanted sans with rounded, compact interior counters and broadly curved bowls. The forms show a strong forward shear with slightly flattened terminals that keep silhouettes blocky while still feeling smooth. Proportions are generous and robust, with short ascenders/descenders relative to a tall lowercase body and tight apertures that hold solid color at display sizes. Numerals and capitals maintain a consistent, high-impact rhythm with minimal detailing and an emphasis on bold, continuous strokes.
Best suited to big, attention-grabbing settings such as headlines, posters, sports and event branding, packaging callouts, and logo wordmarks. It can work for short bursts of copy or subheads, but the dense counters and strong slant favor display use over long, small-size reading.
The overall tone is assertive and kinetic, with a sporty, headline-driven personality. Its broad, slanted shapes and dense black fill suggest motion, urgency, and a retro advertising sensibility without becoming decorative.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a fast, forward-leaning stance and simplified, rounded construction. It prioritizes bold presence and cohesive texture across lines, aiming for immediate visibility and a contemporary-sport/retro-advertising feel.
Letterfit appears tight and the joins are visually compact, which amplifies weight and makes spacing feel lively. The slant is prominent and consistent across cases and figures, helping lines of text read like a single forward-leaning block.
