A sturdy italic slab serif with heavy, block-like serifs and a pronounced rightward slant. Strokes are thick and largely even in weight, with squared-off terminals and broad, flattened serifs that read as strongly structural. Curves (C, G, O, Q) are round but compact, while joins and inside corners show tight, sometimes slightly notched transitions that add a crisp, cut-in feel. The lowercase has a robust, workmanlike texture with a single-storey a and g, a short-armed r, and a compact t; figures are wide and weighty with clear, open counters and strong vertical stress.
Best suited to display sizes where its bold, italic presence can carry titles, pull quotes, and promotional copy. It works well for sports and team-style branding, bold packaging statements, event posters, and editorial layouts that need emphatic, fast-moving typography with strong serifed structure.
The overall tone is confident and energetic, combining a sporty, poster-like punch with a pragmatic, industrial seriousness. The italic angle pushes the voice toward motion and emphasis, giving headlines a sense of urgency and drive while keeping a grounded, mechanical solidity.
The design appears intended to deliver an emphatic italic slab voice—built for impact, legibility, and a sense of momentum—while retaining a rugged, engineered feel through square terminals and substantial serifs.
Spacing and rhythm feel dense and deliberate, producing a dark, high-impact line color in text settings. The slab serifs stay prominent even at smaller sizes in the sample, helping maintain structure and alignment across words and numerals.
