A heavy, forward-slanted slab serif with broad proportions and a compact, muscular build. Strokes are thick and largely even, with sturdy slab terminals that often read as slightly bracketed and softened at the corners rather than razor-sharp. The lowercase shows single-storey forms (notably the a and g) with tight internal counters, while the uppercase stays compact and blocky with a strong horizontal emphasis. Overall spacing and rhythm feel dense and energetic, creating bold word shapes that hold together well at display sizes.
Best suited to short, high-visibility text such as headlines, posters, signage, and packaging where strong texture and presence are needed. It also fits sports-themed branding, bold promotional graphics, and attention-grabbing titling where a retro-energized slab serif voice is desirable.
The tone is confident and high-impact, with a vintage, athletic flavor that recalls poster, headline, and team-mark typography. Its slanted stance and chunky slabs add motion and bravado, giving text a friendly but forceful presence.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a lively slant and robust slab serifs, balancing a tough, blocky structure with slightly softened joins for approachability. It prioritizes bold silhouette and immediate readability over delicate detail, making it geared toward expressive display typography.
The numerals and caps match the same stout, squared-off construction, producing a consistent, stamp-like color across lines. The combination of wide set and tight counters makes it especially attention-grabbing, though it will feel busiest in long passages at small sizes.
