A heavy italic slab serif with broad, squat proportions and a compact internal rhythm. Strokes are thick and largely even, with flat, square-ended slab serifs that read as robust brackets-free blocks. Counters are relatively tight and apertures tend to be small, giving letters a dense, punchy texture in text. The italic slant is consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals, creating a forward-driving line while keeping the overall forms stable and grounded.
Best suited to display applications where impact is the priority: headlines, posters, and bold editorial callouts. Its sturdy slabs and dense texture also work well for sports branding, product packaging, and logo wordmarks that need a strong, energetic voice.
The overall tone is bold and energetic, with a confident, no-nonsense presence. It suggests vintage athletic lettering and classic print headline styling, delivering an assertive voice that feels both familiar and attention-grabbing.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch while staying readable at large sizes, combining a forward-leaning italic stance with blocky slab serifs for a confident, vintage-leaning display personality.
Uppercase forms have a strong, poster-like silhouette, while the lowercase maintains readability through clear bowls and firm verticals despite the weight. Numerals are similarly hefty and highly legible, matching the same squared terminals and forward lean for cohesive display setting.
