A slanted, outline-only sans with monoline contours and generously open counters. The drawing blends crisp, slightly chamfered joins with rounded bowls, giving letters a smooth-but-edgy geometry. Proportions read broad and steady, with compact apertures and consistent stroke spacing that keeps the hollow forms legible. The lowercase shows simple, single-storey constructions (notably a and g) and an upright, straightforward rhythm despite the forward slant; numerals follow the same clean, outlined construction with uniform curvature and even interior whitespace.
Best suited to display contexts such as headlines, posters, and logo or wordmark work where the outlined construction can read clearly. It also fits sports and event graphics, packaging callouts, and titles that benefit from a sense of speed and lightness. In longer text, it works most comfortably at larger sizes with sufficient contrast between the outline and background.
The overall tone feels energetic and sporty, with a light, breezy presence that suggests motion. Its clean outlines and oblique stance also give it a mildly technical, schematic flavor, while the rounded forms keep it approachable and playful.
The design appears intended as a contemporary display outline that merges athletic italics with clean geometric construction, providing a distinctive, airy alternative to solid italic sans styles. Its consistent contour logic suggests a focus on visual unity across caps, lowercase, and numerals for branding and graphic applications.
Because the design is entirely contour-driven, it performs best when the outline weight can hold up against the background; at very small sizes the interiors may visually fill in or the strokes may appear faint. The italic angle is consistent across uppercase, lowercase, and figures, creating a cohesive, forward-leaning texture in text lines.
