A heavy, right-leaning serif with pronounced calligraphic energy and wedge-like, flared terminals. Strokes show a clear diagonal stress and brisk transitions into compact, bracketed serifs, giving the letters a carved, muscular silhouette rather than a purely geometric build. Counters are relatively tight and the joins are energetic, with many forms ending in sharp, angled cuts that amplify the sense of motion. The overall rhythm is dense and emphatic, with strong word-shape and a distinctly slanted, display-oriented texture.
Best suited to large-scale settings where its slanted, flared detailing can read cleanly—headlines, posters, title treatments, and bold brand marks. It can also work for packaging or event graphics that need a strong, retro-leaning voice, while longer passages will generally benefit from shorter line lengths and added spacing.
The font projects speed, confidence, and a slightly vintage bravado—more headline punch than quiet reading. Its bold, slanted stance and flared finishing strokes evoke classic sports lettering and dramatic editorial typography, delivering an energetic, attention-grabbing tone.
The design appears intended to combine traditional serif structure with punchy, motion-forward italics and flared terminals, creating a high-impact display face that feels both classic and athletic. Its consistent wedge endings and strong diagonal stress suggest a focus on dramatic word shapes and immediate visibility.
In the sample text, the dark color and tight internal space create a forceful typographic color that benefits from generous tracking and leading at larger sizes. Figures and capitals share the same dynamic, wedge-driven language, helping numerals stand out with poster-like authority.
