A heavy, right-slanted slab serif with broad proportions and a compact, muscular silhouette. Strokes are thick and mostly even, with large, squared slabs that read as flat-ended but slightly softened at corners, giving the face a sturdy, engineered feel. The letterforms show tight internal counters and a purposeful, condensed-in-detail rhythm—especially in curves and joins—while the italic angle adds forward motion without becoming calligraphic. Numerals match the overall weight and stance, keeping a consistent, poster-ready color across lines.
Best suited to display contexts such as posters, headlines, sports and team-style graphics, packaging, and bold signage where the thick slabs and italic drive create immediate presence. It can also work for short callouts or subheads in editorial layouts when a strong, retro-leaning voice is desired.
The overall tone is assertive and energetic, with a vintage American-display flavor that suggests speed, strength, and impact. It feels loud and straightforward rather than delicate, making it well suited to messaging that needs to look bold, direct, and slightly nostalgic.
Likely designed as a high-impact display slab that combines blocky stability with italic motion, aiming for maximum visibility and a confident, classic advertising or sports-inspired character.
The wide set and large slabs produce strong horizontal emphasis, while the slant creates a sense of momentum that helps long words feel dynamic. At smaller sizes the tight counters and heavy joins may merge, so it tends to perform best when given room to breathe.
