A tightly condensed, forward-leaning display face with angular, wedge-like terminals and a consistently hard-edged silhouette. Strokes keep an even thickness with minimal modulation, while corners are frequently clipped or faceted to create a carved, speed-driven rhythm. The overall texture is compact and dark, with narrow counters and a slightly irregular, hand-rendered feel that avoids sterile geometric repetition.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as headlines, posters, sports graphics, apparel marks, and bold packaging callouts. It performs well when used large, where its faceted terminals and compact spacing can read as intentional energy rather than density.
The font reads loud and kinetic, suggesting motion, urgency, and punch. Its sharp cuts and steep slant evoke sports lettering and comic/action titling, with a slightly gritty, street-poster attitude rather than a polished corporate tone.
The design appears intended to deliver a hand-drawn, speed-inflected look that feels assertive and modern-retro at once, prioritizing momentum, compact economy of space, and strong silhouette recognition in display applications.
Capitals dominate with tall, narrow proportions and brisk diagonals, while lowercase follows the same oblique momentum for a cohesive voice. Numerals match the condensed stance and maintain strong, graphic presence, making the set feel designed for impact over long-form comfort.
