A heavy, right-leaning slab serif with chunky, bracketed terminals and softly rounded joins. Strokes show noticeable contrast for the weight, with broad stems paired with tighter interior counters, giving letters a compact, punchy silhouette. The slabs are substantial and slightly angled, and several glyphs incorporate small notches and wedge-like cuts that add a carved, inky rhythm. Overall spacing and widths vary by glyph, producing a lively, uneven cadence that reads intentionally energetic rather than rigidly geometric.
Best suited to display settings such as posters, headlines, sports or event graphics, and packaging where dense black shapes and strong serifs can carry visual presence. It can also work for bold branding moments, short slogans, and pull quotes, especially when set with generous tracking and ample line spacing.
The tone is bold and extroverted, with a vintage show-card and athletic feel. Its slanted stance and chunky slabs communicate motion and confidence, while the bouncy proportions keep it friendly and attention-seeking rather than formal.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a spirited, retro-leaning voice: a slab serif built for high-contrast attention in display typography, combining a dynamic slant with chunky, sculpted details to keep text feeling fast and expressive.
Round letters like O/Q are very full and dark, with tight apertures that heighten impact at larger sizes. Numerals are similarly weighty and stylized, with strong curves and pronounced slab terminations that maintain the same energetic, poster-like color across mixed text.
