A heavy, slanted sans with compact, rounded construction and broadly curved corners that give many forms a soft rectangular (superellipse-like) feel. Strokes stay consistently thick with minimal modulation, producing dense, high-impact silhouettes. Counters are relatively small and shapes are tightly drawn, with sturdy verticals and diagonals that keep letterforms stable at display sizes. The overall rhythm is bold and chunky, with smooth curves on round letters and clipped, angled terminals that reinforce the forward-leaning motion.
Best suited to short, high-visibility text such as headlines, posters, sports branding, event promos, packaging callouts, and logo wordmarks. Its dense shapes and strong slant make it most effective at medium-to-large sizes, where the rounded corners and compact counters remain clear.
The tone is confident and kinetic, with a sporty, headline-ready presence. Its rounded geometry keeps it approachable rather than aggressive, while the strong slant and dense weight add urgency and impact. The result feels like a modern take on classic athletic and promotional lettering.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a smooth, rounded geometry and a forward-leaning stance. It prioritizes bold presence and cohesive texture across letters and numerals, aiming for energetic display typography that stays friendly and legible.
Uppercase forms read particularly solid and uniform, while the lowercase maintains the same blocky energy with simple, sturdy joins and clear, open apertures where needed. Numerals match the letters in weight and softness, giving mixed text a cohesive, poster-like texture.
