A heavy, right-leaning slab serif with broad proportions and chunky, bracketed serifs. Strokes show noticeable thick–thin modulation, with rounded joins and slightly faceted terminals that keep the forms crisp at large sizes. Counters are relatively compact for the weight, and the overall rhythm is bouncy and energetic, with a subtly hand-cut, poster-like texture. Numerals share the same mass and slanted stance, reading as bold, blocky figures designed to hold up in dense settings.
Best suited to display roles such as headlines, posters, logo lockups, and bold callouts where its weight and slanted energy can lead the composition. It also fits packaging, labels, and signage that want a vintage-meets-athletic voice, particularly when set large and with comfortable spacing.
The font projects a lively, retro-forward attitude—bold, assertive, and a bit cheeky. Its slanted, athletic posture and hefty slabs create a sense of motion and showmanship, evoking classic signage, sports graphics, and mid-century advertising headlines.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a spirited, old-school flavor: thick slab serifs, a pronounced slant, and contrasted strokes that stay readable while feeling expressive. It’s built to create strong presence and motion in short phrases rather than disappear into long-form text.
In longer sample text the strong slant and heavy slabs create a dark, continuous typographic color, so it performs best when given generous tracking and line spacing. The distinctive serif shapes and angled terminals provide memorable word silhouettes, especially in all-caps settings.
