A slanted, heavy sans with a brushlike construction and subtly variable stroke width. Letterforms lean forward with firm, angular joins and frequent wedge-like terminals that create a cut, chiseled look rather than smooth geometric curves. The uppercase is compact and sturdy, while the lowercase introduces more calligraphic movement in bowls and descenders (notably in forms like g, j, and y), producing a lively rhythm in text. Counters are generally open and shapes stay clear at display sizes, with consistent forward motion across letters and numerals.
Well suited to display settings where a sense of speed and character is desirable—posters, headlines, branding marks, packaging, and event or sports-related graphics. It can also work for short bursts of text such as pull quotes or menu section headers, where the energetic texture remains readable at larger sizes.
The overall tone feels fast, punchy, and slightly retro, with an informal energy that suggests motion and emphasis. It reads as confident and expressive rather than neutral, giving headlines a spirited, sporty attitude.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, forward-leaning voice with a handcrafted edge while keeping a largely sans structure for clarity. Its mix of compact capitals and more animated lowercase forms aims to balance impact with an approachable, expressive tone in real-world copy.
Diagonal strokes and angled terminals create a strong directional texture, especially in sequences of capitals. The numerals follow the same slanted, assertive style, matching the letterforms for cohesive display setting. Spacing appears comfortable in the sample text, where the slant and wedge endings add a distinctive cadence across words.
