A slanted, outlined display face built from monoline contours with no filled stems. The letterforms are broad and slightly condensed vertically by strong, blocky geometry, while corners are subtly softened into rounded joins. Counters and apertures stay open and clean, giving the set an airy, hollow look even at larger sizes. The lowercase follows the same oblique construction with a single-storey a and g, short ascenders, and a tall mid-zone that keeps words visually compact and forward-leaning.
Best suited to display settings where the outline construction can breathe—headlines, posters, cover graphics, and short brand phrases. It can work well for sports or event branding, apparel graphics, and packaging callouts, especially when paired with a solid text face. For smaller UI sizes or long paragraphs, the thin outline may lose presence and require careful contrast and spacing.
The overall tone feels sporty and upbeat, with a retro sign-painting and athletic lettering flavor. The outline-only construction adds a light, buoyant presence, while the consistent slant and chunky shapes convey motion and confidence. It reads as friendly and informal rather than technical or editorial.
This font appears designed to deliver a fast, sporty oblique look with a lightweight visual footprint, using outline-only construction to keep large typography feeling open and modern. The consistent geometry suggests an emphasis on impactful titles and branding rather than continuous reading.
Numerals are simple and bold in silhouette, with generous interior space that keeps them legible as outlines. Stroke endings and terminals favor straight cuts and smooth curves over sharp calligraphic details, reinforcing a uniform, graphic rhythm across the set.
