A heavy oblique sans with rounded, compact forms and large enclosed counters. Strokes are broadly uniform and the curves are built from smooth circular segments, while many terminals show angled, wedge-like cuts that reinforce the forward-leaning motion. The overall rhythm is tight and sturdy, with short joins and simplified geometry that keeps shapes bold and clean at display sizes.
Best suited to short, prominent text such as headlines, posters, and bold brand moments where immediacy matters. It also fits sports-themed identities, event graphics, packaging callouts, and large-format signage where its compact shapes and strong silhouette can carry the message.
The tone is energetic and assertive, with a sporty, poster-like impact. Its slanted stance and chunky rounded construction give it a lively, upbeat feel that reads as retro-inspired and attention-seeking rather than formal.
The font appears designed to deliver maximum impact with a dynamic forward slant, combining rounded sans geometry with angled cuts to evoke motion and strength. Its simplified, sturdy letterforms prioritize bold presence and quick recognition in display settings.
The design mixes soft curves with sharp angled terminals, creating a distinctive “cut” look across letters and numerals. The figures are similarly stout and dynamic, matching the caps’ weight and maintaining a consistent, high-impact color on the page.
