This typeface is a slanted, heavy sans with rounded curves and broadly geometric construction. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal contrast, producing a solid, even texture in words. Terminals are mostly clean and blunt, while curves (C, G, O, S) read smooth and controlled rather than calligraphic. Proportions feel slightly condensed in places, with compact counters and sturdy joins that keep letters crisp at display sizes. Numerals follow the same robust, forward-leaning rhythm, with clear, simplified shapes and a strong baseline presence.
Well suited to headlines, posters, and short-form messaging where impact and motion are desirable. It can work effectively in branding and packaging that benefits from a bold, contemporary voice, and it’s a natural fit for sports, fitness, or event-driven graphics. Longer text is best kept to larger sizes due to the dense color and compact internal spaces.
The overall tone is fast and assertive, with a forward motion that suggests speed and momentum. Its weight and slant give it a promotional, high-impact voice that feels contemporary and energetic rather than formal or delicate.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, modern sans voice with a pronounced forward slant for emphasis and movement. Its simplified geometry and even stroke weight prioritize clarity and punch in display contexts over delicate detail.
The italic angle is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, creating a unified directional flow in longer lines of text. Round forms stay fairly circular for a sans, while diagonals (A, V, W, X, Y) feel sharp and purposeful, reinforcing the athletic, headline-ready character.
