A heavy, right-leaning slab serif with wide proportions and compact counters. Strokes stay largely even in weight, while the slab serifs are thick, strongly bracketed, and often shaped into wedge-like feet. Many joins show small notches and cut-ins that create a punchy, athletic texture, and curves are slightly squared with softened corners. The lowercase uses sturdy, single-storey forms (notably the a and g) with teardrop-like terminals, and the numerals are broad and solid with a distinctive open, horizontal-bar 4.
Best suited to large-scale typography where its heavy slabs and italic momentum can do the work: headlines, posters, campaign graphics, and bold editorial openers. It also fits sports branding, merchandise, and packaging that needs a retro, high-impact voice. For long text, it works more as an accent (pull quotes, callouts) than as a primary reading face.
The tone is bold and energetic, with a vintage, varsity-adjacent swagger. Its chunky slabs and forward slant give it a sense of motion and confidence, reading as approachable but emphatic. Overall it feels promotional and attention-seeking rather than delicate or formal.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a muscular, italicized slab-serif voice, balancing rugged structure with rounded, friendly details. Its notched joins and wedge-like serifs suggest a display-first approach aimed at bold messaging and energetic branding.
The forward slant combines with wide letterforms to produce a strong horizontal push, and the dense color can close up in smaller sizes. The angular notches and bracketed slabs create a rhythmic, stamped look that stays consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures.
