A heavy, condensed sans with a consistent rightward slant and compact proportions. Strokes are thick and largely monolinear, with rounded joins and tapered, angled terminals that create a cut-in, ink-trap-like rhythm at corners. Counters are relatively small and oval, and the overall silhouette feels tightly packed and upright in construction despite the italic angle. Numerals and capitals maintain the same robust, slightly sculpted geometry, producing a strong, high-impact texture in text.
Best suited for headlines, short blurbs, and prominent labeling where strong presence and motion are desirable. It works well for sports-themed branding, event posters, packaging callouts, and bold signage, particularly at medium to large sizes where the carved details and counters remain clear.
The font conveys speed and emphasis, with a sporty, poster-like attitude. Its slanted stance and chunky shapes feel dynamic and upbeat, leaning toward a retro display mood rather than neutral utility.
This design appears intended as a high-impact italic display sans: compact, forceful, and expressive, with carved terminals that add personality while maintaining a cohesive, monoline structure.
The shapes show deliberate corner carving and notched transitions—especially where bowls meet stems—which adds character and helps keep interior spaces open at bold sizes. The condensed width and dense color make it most comfortable when given a bit of tracking and generous line spacing in longer settings.
