A heavy, right-slanted sans with broad, superelliptical geometry and tightly managed internal space. Strokes are substantial and often end in crisp, angled terminals that reinforce forward motion. Rounds (C, O, G, 0, 8) read as squared-off ovals with softened corners, while horizontals and diagonals are cut with consistent, clean edges. Counters are relatively compact and apertures are controlled, giving the design a dense, impact-first rhythm that remains structured and uniform across caps, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited to display sizes where its mass and slant can drive attention—sports branding, team marks, event posters, trailers, and punchy headlines. It also works well on packaging or merchandise graphics that benefit from bold, kinetic letterforms, especially in short phrases and strong typographic locks.
The overall tone is fast, assertive, and competition-minded, with a distinctly retro athletic flavor. Its slant and blunt, engineered shapes suggest speed and strength rather than neutrality, making it feel at home in energetic and high-impact visual systems.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a sense of speed, using rounded-rectangle curves and angled cuts to balance toughness with streamlined modernity. It prioritizes strong silhouettes and consistent, engineered structure for branding and display typography.
Uppercase forms look especially built for headline presence, with sturdy bowls and simplified joins; lowercase follows the same industrial logic for cohesive texture in short text. Numerals are chunky and stable, matching the letterforms’ squared-round construction and keeping a consistent visual weight in mixed alphanumeric settings.
