A heavy, right-leaning slab serif with broad proportions and a sturdy, low-contrast build. Serifs are thick and squared-off with subtle bracketing, giving terminals a carved, poster-like solidity rather than a delicate book feel. Counters are generous and mostly round, while joins and shoulders stay firm and slightly condensed in their curves, producing a consistent, punchy rhythm. The lowercase keeps a straightforward, workmanlike structure (single-storey a and g), and the numerals are robust and highly legible with substantial horizontal strokes.
Best suited to display typography where strong presence is needed: headlines, posters, and branded statements. The sturdy slabs and open counters also work well for packaging, event graphics, and logo wordmarks where a retro, energetic voice is desired.
The overall tone feels sporty and headline-driven, with a confident, vintage energy reminiscent of team branding and mid-century advertising. Its slanted stance adds urgency and motion while the heavy slabs keep it grounded and emphatic.
Likely designed to deliver a bold, fast-moving display impression—combining a classic slab-serif backbone with an italicized, athletic posture for attention-grabbing titles and branding.
In text, the weight and slant create strong word shapes and clear emphasis, with noticeable ink-trap-free, blunt endings that favor impact over delicacy. Spacing appears comfortably open for such a heavy style, helping counters stay readable at display sizes.
