A heavy, right-leaning slab-serif with chunky, bracketed terminals and rounded, slightly swelling joins. Strokes show a mild internal modulation, with compact counters and a broad footprint that keeps letters dense and high-impact. Many terminals feature small wedge-like cuts and notch details that create a carved, energetic texture, while the overall silhouette stays sturdy and poster-oriented rather than delicate or bookish.
Best suited for short-form display work where impact matters—sports identities, event posters, product packaging, and bold editorial headlines. It can also work for logo wordmarks and badges where the slanted stance and carved terminals help create a distinctive, memorable silhouette.
The tone feels bold and assertive with a distinctly vintage, athletic flavor. Its slanted, carved detailing adds motion and swagger, giving text a spirited, attention-grabbing presence suited to energetic messaging.
Designed to deliver a strong, energetic display voice by combining slab-serif heft with italic momentum and carved terminal details. The goal appears to be maximum presence at larger sizes while keeping letterforms cohesive and instantly recognizable.
The rhythm is compact and forceful: apertures are relatively tight, and punctuation and numerals share the same stout, stylized treatment for a cohesive display voice. The italic slant is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, reinforcing a forward-moving, headline-driven character.
