A heavy, forward-leaning slab serif with broad proportions and a compact, sturdy build. Strokes are low-contrast and consistently thick, with pronounced slab serifs that read as mostly squared-off and assertive; joins and inner corners show subtle notches that create an ink-trap-like effect in the heaviest areas. The italics are true, not merely oblique, with lively, sculpted forms, a single-storey “a,” and a distinctive “g” that keeps the rhythm energetic. Counters are generally open but tightened by the weight, producing strong silhouettes and a dense, poster-ready color.
Best suited to display typography where strong emphasis and immediacy are desired—headlines, posters, sports and team-style branding, energetic packaging, and editorial feature titles. The sturdy weight and slab structure help it maintain presence in short lines, pull quotes, and promotional copy where character is more important than quiet text efficiency.
The overall tone feels punchy and competitive, balancing classic newspaper/editorial gravitas with a sporty, collegiate edge. Its slanted, muscular shapes suggest momentum and emphasis, making it read as confident, headline-driven, and slightly vintage without feeling delicate.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, high-impact italic slab voice that communicates motion and authority. It prioritizes strong silhouettes, sturdy slabs, and readable interior shapes to stay legible and charismatic in large sizes and high-contrast layouts.
Uppercase forms are wide and stable with emphatic slabs that hold their ground at display sizes, while the lowercase keeps a bouncy cadence through varied curves and angled stress. Numerals are similarly robust and attention-grabbing, suited to impactful figures and scoring-style callouts.
