A heavy, oblique slab-serif with broad proportions and compact internal counters. Strokes stay largely even, with squared, slabby terminals and modest bracketing where serifs meet stems. The letterforms have a slightly condensed vertical feel in the capitals paired with very large, weighty lowercase, producing strong rhythm and pronounced word shapes. Curves are firm and closed, joins are sturdy, and the overall texture reads dense and high-impact at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding where impact and momentum matter. It works well for sports or collegiate-style identities, promotional graphics, packaging labels, and logo wordmarks that need a sturdy, attention-grabbing italic slab.
The tone is confident and energetic, with a classic athletic and mid-century print flavor. Its italic slant and chunky slabs give it motion and urgency, while the robust construction keeps it grounded and authoritative.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, forward-leaning slab-serif voice that combines classic print sturdiness with display-level punch. It prioritizes bold word shapes, dense texture, and a confident italic stance for prominent, short-to-medium text settings.
Numerals and caps maintain the same bold, block-forward attitude, with wide set widths that emphasize presence. The oblique angle is consistent across the alphabet, helping lines of text feel fast and forward-leaning without becoming overly calligraphic.
