A sturdy slab-serif with a pronounced rightward slant and compact, energetic proportions. Strokes are heavy and largely even, with slab-like, softly bracketed serifs that create a strong baseline and clear word shapes. Counters are relatively tight and the curves are generously rounded, while terminals stay blunt and decisive. The lowercase shows a tall x-height and a slightly condensed rhythm, helping the face hold together at display sizes while still reading cleanly in short text.
Well-suited to headlines, posters, and marketing copy where a strong, italicized slab presence adds impact. It can also support sports or event branding, packaging callouts, and editorial display settings where compact, high-energy typography is needed.
The overall tone is assertive and athletic, with a retro editorial flavor. Its weight and slant add urgency and forward motion, making it feel confident and attention-grabbing without becoming decorative.
The design appears aimed at delivering a dependable slab-serif voice with built-in momentum from the oblique stance. It prioritizes punchy emphasis and solid readability in short-to-medium passages, giving designers a practical display tool that still feels distinctive.
Numerals are robust and open with straightforward shapes that match the heavy, workmanlike texture. The italic construction is consistently applied across caps, lowercase, and figures, producing a cohesive, unified color in lines of text.
