A heavy, slanted slab-serif with compact proportions and a punchy, forward-leaning stance. Strokes are thick and largely even, with squared, blocky serifs and subtly bracketed joins that keep the shapes from feeling purely mechanical. Counters are moderately open, while terminals tend toward flat cuts, giving the face a firm, poster-ready silhouette. The rhythm is slightly irregular in a way that reads as lively rather than rough, and the numerals match the letters with the same dense, sturdy construction.
Best suited for headlines, titling, and short-to-medium bursts of text where strong presence is desired. It works well for sports-oriented branding, event promotion, packaging callouts, and editorial lead-ins that benefit from a bold, kinetic voice.
The overall tone is assertive and energetic, with a vintage, sports-and-headlines flavor. Its oblique angle and chunky slabs create a sense of motion and confidence, suggesting impact and momentum more than quiet neutrality.
Designed to deliver high-impact communication with a fast, emphatic feel, combining slab-serif solidity with an oblique, attention-grabbing posture. The flat terminals and chunky serifs aim for clarity at large sizes and a distinctly retro display character.
Uppercase forms feel compact and weighty, while lowercase maintains clear, sturdy silhouettes that hold up well in display settings. The italic slant is consistent and contributes strongly to the font’s personality, making it feel dynamic even in short words.
