A heavy, oblique sans with broad proportions and rounded, slightly squared-off contours. Strokes are thick and largely uniform, with smooth curves and softened terminals that give the forms a solid, molded feel. Counters are relatively compact (notably in letters like B, P, R, and a), and curves on C, G, O, and S read as sturdy and controlled rather than airy. The overall rhythm is dense and stable, with a strong forward slant and consistent, bold silhouettes across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to attention-grabbing display work where bold, slanted letterforms can carry a message at a glance—headlines, posters, brand marks, apparel graphics, and packaging callouts. It can also work for short bursts of copy (taglines, labels, navigation headers) where a confident, friendly emphasis is desired.
The font conveys a sporty, high-impact tone—assertive and energetic, but softened by rounded shaping that keeps it approachable. Its forward lean adds momentum and urgency, while the chunky construction suggests strength and confidence rather than delicacy.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a fast, forward-leaning stance and rounded, durable shapes, balancing athletic urgency with approachable softness. It prioritizes strong silhouette recognition and consistent heft for branding and display-driven typography.
The lowercase shows single-storey a and g, reinforcing a contemporary, informal voice. Numerals are similarly weighty and rounded, maintaining the same compact counter shapes and slanted stance, which helps text blocks feel cohesive in display settings.
