A heavy, right-slanted slab serif with tightly cut, angular contours and square, unbracketed terminals. Forms are built from bold, low-contrast strokes with frequent chamfered corners, giving a faceted, almost machined feel rather than smooth curves. The italic slant is consistent and forward-driving, while counters stay relatively compact and squared-off, maintaining dense, high-impact word shapes. Numerals and capitals share the same robust, blocky construction, producing a cohesive, sturdy texture in lines of text.
Best suited for display typography where impact and speed are desired—sports branding, team identities, event posters, and bold headline systems. It can also work for logotypes and apparel graphics where the angular slab construction helps maintain presence across printing methods.
The overall tone is forceful and energetic, with a bold, competitive voice that reads as sporty and action-oriented. Its sharp corners and forward lean add urgency, while the slab structure lends a tough, utilitarian confidence that can also nod to retro signage and athletic branding.
The letterforms appear intended to deliver maximum punch with a streamlined, athletic slant and hard-edged slab details. The consistent faceting and square terminals suggest a design goal of looking engineered and energetic, optimized for bold statements rather than quiet reading.
The design favors straight segments and clipped joins over round bowls, which enhances punch at display sizes and keeps silhouettes crisp. The forward slant and compact apertures create strong horizontal momentum, but also raise visual density, especially in longer passages.
