A heavy, forward-leaning serif with pronounced flared stroke endings and softly bracketed terminals. The letterforms are compact and sturdy with rounded counters, smooth curves, and a slightly springy baseline rhythm that gives the shapes a lively, hand-drawn feel. Strokes show subtle modulation rather than stark thick–thin contrast, and many terminals finish with tapered, wedge-like flicks. The overall texture is dense and dark in mass, yet the generous apertures and open bowls keep it readable at display sizes.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as headlines, posters, sports or event branding, and bold packaging statements. It can also work for editorial display pull quotes where a dynamic, retro-leaning tone is desired, but its strong weight and animated italic make it less suited to long-form reading.
The font reads as bold and upbeat, with a vintage, athletic energy and a touch of comic warmth. Its slanted stance and flared terminals add motion and assertiveness, making it feel expressive and attention-grabbing rather than formal.
Likely designed to deliver a high-energy display voice that combines classic serif cues with a more contemporary, athletic slant. The flared endings and rounded construction aim to keep the texture friendly and legible while maximizing impact at large sizes.
Uppercase forms lean toward broad, simplified silhouettes, while lowercase characters add more personality through curved joins and lively terminals. Numerals are robust and rounded, designed to hold their shape under heavy weight and slant.
