A heavy, oblique slab-serif with dense, sturdy strokes and a compact, forward-leaning rhythm. Serifs are blocky and mostly square-ended with subtle bracketing, giving the forms a carved, mechanical feel rather than delicate calligraphy. Counters are relatively small, joins are firm, and curves are broad and simplified, producing an even, powerful texture in words. The lowercase shows strong, upright stems with a pronounced slant, while caps remain wide-shouldered and solid, keeping a consistent, headline-oriented color.
Best suited to display settings where impact and momentum matter—headlines, posters, sports and event branding, and bold packaging. It can also work for short, emphatic interface labels or signage where a rugged, energetic voice is desired.
The overall tone is assertive and energetic, with a sporty, vintage-leaning character that feels at home in bold statements. Its oblique stance adds motion and urgency, while the slab structure reads dependable and rugged.
Likely intended as a high-impact, italicized slab for attention-grabbing typography, combining sturdy, industrial slabs with a dynamic slant to create fast, confident emphasis.
The design favors strong silhouettes and clear word shapes over fine detail, with chunky serifs and terminals that hold up well at large sizes. Numerals match the weight and slant closely, maintaining the same compact, muscular presence as the letters.
