This typeface is an italic slab-serif with sturdy, blocky serifs and a pronounced rightward slant. Strokes are largely even in weight with low contrast, and the joins and corners stay crisp, giving the letterforms a firm, engineered feel. The serifs are substantial and mostly squared off, with subtle bracketing that smooths transitions into stems. Counters are compact but clear, and curves (like C, G, S, and 0) are rounded yet tightened by flat terminals and angular shaping. The lowercase shows a straightforward, text-oriented construction with a single-storey g and a compact, rhythmic set of forms; numerals are strong and stable with wide bowls and slabby feet.
It works especially well for headlines and short editorial passages where an italic voice is needed without sacrificing weight and clarity. The robust slabs and steady rhythm suit posters, branding, and packaging that want a confident, slightly vintage punch, and it can also serve as an emphatic companion face for callouts, decks, or sports-leaning graphics.
The overall tone is confident and slightly old-school, evoking editorial and collegiate cues without feeling delicate. Its heavy-duty slabs and forward slant add urgency and momentum, making it feel energetic and emphatic while remaining readable.
The design appears intended to deliver an italic with the solidity and impact of a slab serif, combining strong terminals and low-contrast strokes for dependable readability and a distinctive, energetic texture.
The italic angle is consistent and gives the font a strong diagonal texture in paragraphs. Wide, slabby terminals and sturdy horizontals create a bold presence in headlines, while the restrained contrast and tidy shapes help it hold together in continuous text.
