A heavy, right-leaning slab serif with broad proportions and strongly bracketed, blocky serifs. Strokes are robust with subtle internal contrast, and the joins and terminals show softened, rounded shaping that keeps the forms from feeling rigid. The lowercase is lively, with single-storey shapes (notably the a and g) and generous curves that create a rolling rhythm across words. Numerals and capitals carry a solid, poster-like mass with clear horizontal slabs and a slightly springy italic flow.
Best suited to headlines, short blurbs, and large-scale typography where its weight and slab structure can deliver impact. It fits well in sports and event branding, retro-styled posters, product packaging, and signage where a confident, high-visibility voice is needed.
The tone is bold and extroverted, mixing vintage display energy with a sporty, collegiate feel. Its rounded details and energetic slant keep it approachable while still reading as assertive and attention-grabbing.
The design appears intended to blend bold slab-serif authority with italic motion and rounded modulation, producing a display face that feels both sturdy and animated. It prioritizes strong silhouette and rhythmic word-shapes for eye-catching titles and branding.
Letterforms emphasize strong horizontals (notably in E, F, T, and Z) and pronounced slab feet that create a stable baseline. Spacing appears tuned for display sizes, where the heavy color and curving italic movement become a defining texture.
