A steeply slanted, condensed sans with heavy, compact forms and rounded-rectangle curves. Strokes stay broadly consistent in thickness, with tight counters and minimal interior space, creating a dense, high-impact texture. Terminals are blunt and slightly rounded, while bowls and curves read as superelliptical, giving O/C/G and the numerals a soft-cornered, engineered feel. The lowercase shows a tall, long-legged silhouette (notably in f, g, j, y), and the figures are sturdy and tabular-looking, with an elliptical 0 and sharply cut diagonals in 2, 4, and 7.
Best suited to short, emphatic settings such as headlines, sports and fitness identities, event posters, and bold packaging callouts where speed and impact are the priority. It can also work for compact wordmarks and labels, especially where a condensed footprint is needed.
The overall tone is fast and forceful, projecting speed, pressure, and motion. Its narrow stance and strong slant suggest athletic branding and high-tempo messaging, with a slightly retro, poster-like intensity.
The design appears aimed at delivering maximum presence in limited horizontal space while emphasizing motion through a pronounced slant and solid, rounded-rect geometry. It prioritizes instant recognition and punch over delicate detail, aligning with display typography needs.
Spacing appears intentionally tight, producing a cohesive vertical rhythm in all-caps and a compressed, headline-oriented color in mixed case. The oblique angle is strong enough that long lines feel kinetic, and the rounded corners keep the heaviness from feeling brittle.
