This typeface is a heavy, oblique sans with smooth, rounded geometry and squared-off curves that feel superelliptical rather than purely circular. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal contrast, producing a dense color and strong silhouette. Counters are relatively tight and apertures are modest, while joins and terminals stay clean and crisp, giving letters a streamlined, engineered look. The italics are clearly drawn (not just slanted), with a forward-leaning rhythm and compact proportions that keep forms stable at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, short statements, and branding where a strong, forward-leaning voice is useful. It works well for sports and active-lifestyle graphics, tech-forward marketing, packaging callouts, and social media typography where impact and pace matter more than long-form reading comfort.
The overall tone is fast, contemporary, and confident, with a “built for motion” slant that reads as sporty and performance-oriented. Its rounded-rectangle curves soften the heaviness, keeping it friendly enough for brand work while still feeling bold and purposeful.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, high-impact oblique sans that combines bold presence with rounded, geometric forms for a modern, motion-driven aesthetic.
Round letters and numerals show a squarish rounding that creates a distinctive, modern texture in text. The figures are sturdy and highly visible, matching the weight and forward momentum of the letters for cohesive headlines and callouts.
