A heavy, slanted sans with broad proportions and strongly rounded contours. Strokes stay consistently thick with smooth, bulging curves and compact internal counters, creating dense black shapes that hold together as bold blocks. Terminals are mostly softened rather than sharply cut, and many joins feel inflated and slightly irregular in a controlled way, giving the letterforms a lively, elastic rhythm. The lowercase is large relative to the capitals, with short ascenders/descenders and sturdy, simplified construction; numerals match the same chunky, rounded weight and stance.
Well suited to high-impact display work such as posters, headlines, sports and team identities, bold packaging, and promotional graphics where quick recognition matters. It can also work for short UI labels or social graphics when set with extra spacing to preserve clarity.
The overall tone is energetic and extroverted, combining a sporty emphasis with a playful, slightly retro warmth. Its slanted posture and big, rounded masses read as confident and attention-seeking rather than refined or understated.
Likely designed as a display sans that maximizes visual impact through thick, rounded forms and a forward-leaning stance, prioritizing momentum and personality over delicate detail. The construction aims for friendly strength and strong silhouette recognition at large sizes.
The heaviest areas and tight counters suggest it performs best with generous tracking and leading, especially in smaller sizes or long lines. In all-caps it becomes highly emphatic, while mixed-case retains a friendlier, bouncier texture.
