A slanted slab-serif with sturdy, block-like serifs and a dense, dark overall color. Strokes are largely even in weight with gently rounded joins and subtly bracketed slab connections, giving the letterforms a softened, engraved feel rather than a sharp geometric one. Counters are moderately tight and the rhythm is compact, with noticeable width variation between glyphs that adds a lively, print-like texture. Terminals and serifs read as squared and robust, supporting strong word shapes in both caps and lowercase.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, posters, and branding where an italicized, slab-serif voice can provide impact and momentum. It also works well for packaging and promotional graphics that benefit from a rugged, vintage-inflected texture, especially at medium-to-large sizes where the slab details and compact rhythm read cleanly.
The font conveys an assertive, old-school tone—part editorial, part athletic—balancing practicality with a hint of vintage flavor. Its slant and hefty serifs create a sense of motion and confidence, while the softened detailing keeps it approachable and less formal than a high-contrast italic.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong italic slab presence that feels classic and practical, emphasizing sturdy serifs, compact spacing, and a dark typographic color for attention-grabbing display and emphatic editorial use.
In the sample text, the heavy italic emphasis and sturdy slab serifs remain clear at larger sizes, creating a punchy paragraph color suited to display-led typography. Figures appear sturdy and traditional in construction, matching the overall solid, print-oriented character.
