A heavy, compressed oblique sans with sharply cut terminals and a forward-leaning stance. The letterforms are built from chunky, slightly squared strokes with tight counters and compact spacing, creating a dense, fast rhythm. A defining feature is the recurring horizontal “slice” motif: many glyphs include a mid-stroke notch or bar-like cut that reads like a speed-stripe across the character. Curves are simplified and geometric, with crisp joins and a generally uniform stroke heft that favors impact over nuance.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as posters, esports or gaming graphics, sports branding, event promos, and punchy social media headlines. It can also work for logos and wordmarks where the slashed motif becomes a recognizable signature. For longer text, it’s more effective in brief bursts (tags, callsouts, titles) than in continuous reading.
The overall tone feels loud and kinetic, like lettering designed for motion and adrenaline. The repeated slashes give it a hacked, action-oriented attitude that lands somewhere between futuristic racing graphics and playful, comic-book exaggeration. It reads as intentionally edgy and attention-seeking rather than neutral or refined.
The design appears aimed at delivering a distinctive “speed-stripe” identity while staying bold and compact for maximum punch. Its consistent oblique angle and repeated cut-in details suggest an intention to evoke motion, intensity, and a slightly mischievous, experimental personality.
The slice detail is visually dominant and can become busy in longer passages, especially where it aligns across multiple letters and creates a banding effect. Numerals and caps maintain the same angular, cut-through treatment, helping the set feel cohesive and logo-ready. The oblique construction and compact widths emphasize speed and urgency in headlines.
