A heavy, slanted sans with wide proportions and rounded, softly chamfered terminals. Strokes are thick and fairly even, with moderate contrast appearing mainly where curves turn into straighter segments. Counters are compact (notably in a, e, o, and 8), and joins are sturdy, giving a dense, punchy texture. The uppercase is broad and stable, while the lowercase stays simple and geometric with single-storey forms where visible (a, g), maintaining a consistent, forward-leaning rhythm across letters and numerals.
Best suited to headlines and short, high-impact copy where the thick strokes and wide stance can dominate the layout. It works well for sports and event branding, promotional graphics, and packaging where a bold, energetic voice is needed. In longer paragraphs, the dense counters and strong slant may feel heavy, so it’s most effective in display roles.
The overall tone feels energetic and assertive, with a forward-leaning stance that reads as sporty and promotional. Rounded shaping keeps it friendly rather than aggressive, but the mass and tight apertures make it unmistakably attention-seeking and headline-driven.
The design appears aimed at delivering maximum visibility and momentum: a slanted, rounded sans built for punchy statements and brand-forward messaging. Its consistent weight and compact internal spaces suggest an emphasis on solidity and presence over delicate detail.
The italic angle is pronounced enough to create motion in lines of text, and the wide set reinforces a strong horizontal presence. Numerals match the letterweight closely and appear designed for impact, with bold, simplified silhouettes that hold up in large sizes.
