A heavy, forward-slanted sans with compact, block-like construction and strongly rounded corners. Curves are built from softened rectangular forms, giving letters a superellipse feel, while counters tend toward rounded rectangles. Terminals are blunt and clean, with occasional notch-like cut-ins and small ink-trap-style openings in tight joins that help preserve clarity at this weight. Overall spacing is tight and rhythmic, and the numerals share the same sturdy, squarish geometry with smooth rounding.
Well-suited to sports and activewear branding, promotional posters, and big, attention-grabbing headlines where impact is the priority. It can also work for packaging and UI labels that need a strong, modern presence, especially at medium to large sizes.
The tone is bold and kinetic, with a confident, athletic voice. Its slant and dense silhouettes communicate urgency and momentum, reading as contemporary and high-impact rather than delicate or editorial.
Likely designed to deliver maximum impact with a fast, italicized stance while maintaining legibility through rounded-rectangle counters and strategic cut-ins at tight joins. The overall system emphasizes consistency and bold presence across letters and figures.
Uppercase forms lean wide and stable, while lowercase shapes stay stout with short extenders, keeping texture dense in paragraphs. Round letters like O/Q show squared-off curvature, and diagonals (V/W/X/Y) are thick and decisive, reinforcing a strong, headline-oriented color.
