A heavy, oblique sans with broad proportions and tightly controlled, low-contrast strokes. Counters are compact and mostly rounded, with softened corners and dense interior spaces that give letters a sturdy, poster-like mass. The rhythm is steady and even across caps, lowercase, and figures, with simplified forms and minimal detailing; terminals are generally blunt and the overall silhouette reads as a continuous, slanted block. Figures are similarly bold and rounded, matching the letterforms for a uniform, high-impact texture.
Best suited to headlines, short statements, and branding where impact and motion are desired. It can work well for sports and streetwear graphics, product packaging, and promotional materials that benefit from a bold, condensed message and a cohesive, uniform texture.
The tone is assertive and energetic, with a sporty, headline-forward presence. Its slanted stance and chunky construction suggest speed and momentum, while the rounded shaping keeps it approachable rather than harsh. Overall it conveys a confident, retro-leaning practicality suited to attention-grabbing messaging.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch with a fast, forward-leaning stance, prioritizing strong silhouettes and consistent spacing over delicate detail. It aims for a modern, utilitarian display voice with a slightly retro, athletic flavor.
In text, the weight produces a strong dark color and clear emphasis, especially at larger sizes. The slant is consistent and prominent, making it feel dynamic; at small sizes the dense counters may look compact, reinforcing its display-first character.
