Keywords: headlines, posters, branding, packaging, sports, sporty, punchy, confident, energetic, retro, impact, speed, emphasis, display, oblique, compressed counters, rounded joins, ink-trap feel.
A heavy, right-leaning sans with pronounced stroke modulation and compact internal counters. Forms are broad and sturdy with softly rounded corners, teardrop-like terminals, and frequent wedge-shaped joins that create a slightly ink-trap feel in tight spots. Curves are smooth and full, while diagonals and cross-strokes keep a brisk, forward rhythm; overall spacing reads on the tight side in text, amplifying the dense, poster-like color.
Best suited to headlines, logos, and short callouts where density and momentum are assets. It can work well for branding, packaging, event graphics, and sports or entertainment promotions, especially when set with generous leading and restrained line lengths.
The overall tone is bold and kinetic, with a competitive, sports-adjacent swagger. Its slanted stance and sculpted weight shifts give it a lively, assertive voice that feels promotional and attention-seeking rather than quiet or editorial.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a fast, slanted silhouette and sculpted contrast, balancing rounded friendliness with assertive weight. The consistent, chunky construction suggests a display-first approach aimed at high visibility and strong personality.
In the sample text, the dark mass and small apertures make long passages feel compact, so the type’s strength is in short, emphatic lines. Numerals match the same hefty, rounded construction, with especially weighty bowls in figures like 8 and 9.
