A heavy, right-leaning sans with broad proportions and rounded, compact interior spaces. Strokes are thick and clean with subtly softened corners and an overall “blocky” silhouette that stays consistent across curves and diagonals. The slant is strong and steady, giving letters a forward motion, while bowls and counters (in forms like O, e, a, 6, 8, 9) remain tight and dense. Terminals are largely blunt and straightforward, and the numerals match the letters in weight and width for a unified, poster-ready texture.
Best suited for high-impact display work such as sports identities, event posters, big marketing headlines, packaging callouts, and logo wordmarks where bold presence and forward motion are desirable. It can work for short subheads or emphasis text, but the dense texture makes it less ideal for long-form reading at small sizes.
The overall tone is loud and kinetic, projecting speed and confidence. It reads as sporty and promotional, with a slightly retro, headline-driven feel that favors impact over subtlety.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch with a fast, forward-leaning stance. Its wide, bulky forms and compact counters suggest a focus on attention-grabbing display typography that remains cohesive and sturdy across both letters and figures.
In continuous text, the dense counters and heavy color create a solid, dark rhythm; spacing appears designed to keep lines visually cohesive rather than airy. The italic angle and wide stance combine to produce a strong directional flow, especially noticeable in round letters and in diagonals like V, W, X, and Y.
