A heavy, slanted sans with compact proportions and broad, low-contrast strokes. The shapes favor rounded outer curves paired with blunt, squared terminals, producing a sturdy, block-like silhouette. Counters are relatively tight (notably in C, G, S, 8, and 9), and joins are smooth with minimal modulation. The overall rhythm is dense and even, with clear, simplified forms and a consistent forward lean across capitals, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to display settings where bold presence and fast recognition matter—headlines, posters, sports-themed branding, event graphics, and punchy packaging. It can also work for short signage and labels, especially when generous tracking and leading are used to relieve its dense texture.
The font projects a high-impact, energetic tone with a distinctly retro, sporty flavor. Its strong mass and forward motion make it feel assertive and attention-grabbing, while the rounded geometry keeps the voice friendly rather than aggressive.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual impact in a compact, slanted, geometric voice—prioritizing strong silhouettes, consistent stroke weight, and a dynamic, forward-leaning stance for energetic display typography.
Lowercase forms read sturdy and utilitarian, with single-story construction where applicable and an overall emphasis on solid fills over open whitespace. Numerals are similarly weighty and rounded, maintaining consistent color and presence in mixed text.
