A heavy, right-slanted sans with rounded construction and sturdy, uniform strokes. Letterforms are broad and compact, with tight counters and a strong horizontal presence; curves are smooth and generous while joins stay clean and direct. The lowercase leans toward single-storey shapes (notably the a and g), and the overall rhythm is dense and emphatic, optimized for bold silhouettes rather than fine detail.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding where immediate impact is needed, especially in sports, entertainment, and promotional contexts. It will also work well for short bursts of text such as labels, callouts, and packaging, where its dense, bold texture reads clearly at larger sizes.
The tone is confident and high-impact, with a forward-leaning momentum that feels sporty and urgent. Its broad stance and rounded corners keep it friendly enough for mainstream branding while still reading as forceful and attention-grabbing.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, energetic display voice with smooth, rounded geometry and a consistent forward slant. It prioritizes bold presence and quick recognition, balancing toughness with approachable curves for versatile contemporary branding.
Capitals are straightforward and geometric, pairing well with similarly robust numerals; the figures appear built for punchy, at-a-glance recognition. The slant is consistent across the set, creating a cohesive sense of motion in text lines and headlines.
