A heavy, oblique sans with compact proportions and a strongly forward-leaning stance. Letterforms are built from broad strokes with rounded-rectangle curves, producing smooth bowls and softened corners rather than sharp geometry. Counters are relatively tight and apertures are small, giving the face a dense, high-impact texture. Terminals are mostly blunt and squared-off, and the overall rhythm feels compressed and energetic, with sturdy verticals and simplified joins that prioritize bold silhouette over fine detail.
Best suited to large-scale display settings where bold, angled letterforms can carry a message quickly—sports identities, event posters, promotional graphics, packaging callouts, and apparel. It can also work for short subheads or labels where an energetic, condensed texture is desired, but it is less appropriate for long reading or small UI text due to its dense counters and strong slant.
The tone is forceful and high-energy, with a distinctly athletic, action-oriented feel. Its pronounced slant and dense black shapes read as fast, competitive, and attention-grabbing, more about impact than subtlety.
The design appears aimed at delivering maximum impact with a fast, forward motion, using rounded-rectangle construction to keep the heavy weight feeling smooth rather than harsh. It prioritizes a strong, uniform silhouette for branding and promotional use, emphasizing immediacy and momentum.
Uppercase forms stay clean and block-like while the lowercase adopts similarly robust shapes, maintaining consistent weight and a uniform, poster-ready color. Numerals match the same chunky construction, with rounded counters and strong diagonals that keep them readable at a glance.
