A heavy, slanted sans with wide set proportions and rounded-rectangle construction. Strokes are thick and simplified, with smooth corners and a subtle superellipse feel in bowls and counters. Letterforms are compact inside, producing small apertures and sturdy, block-like silhouettes, while the italic slant and forward-leaning terminals keep the rhythm moving. Numerals follow the same robust geometry, staying bold and stable with minimal detailing.
Best suited to attention-grabbing display work such as sports branding, event posters, product packaging, and bold editorial headlines. It can work for short subheads or callouts where a dense, high-impact texture is desirable, but it is less comfortable for extended text due to its tight counters and heavy visual color.
The overall tone is loud and kinetic, projecting speed and impact with a friendly, softened edge from the rounded shapes. It reads as sporty and promotional rather than neutral, with a slightly retro, display-oriented confidence.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a fast, forward-leaning stance while keeping forms approachable through rounded, superellipse-based geometry. It prioritizes strong silhouettes, clear rhythm, and a compact, muscular texture for branding and promotional settings.
The face maintains consistent weight and curvature across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, emphasizing solid black mass and smooth contouring. The slant is uniform, and the internal spaces remain tight, which increases punch at larger sizes while making the texture feel dense in long lines.
