A heavy, right-slanted sans with rounded, brush-like terminals and compact counters. Strokes show gentle modulation, with swelling curves and subtly tapered joins that create a lively, inked rhythm without becoming calligraphic. Uppercase forms are broad and sturdy, while the lowercase is more animated, with single-storey shapes and pronounced entry/exit flicks that keep the texture dense and continuous. Numerals follow the same forward lean and weight, with smooth bowls and curved spines that read clearly at display sizes.
Best suited to attention-grabbing applications such as headlines, posters, branding marks, packaging, and promotional graphics where a strong slanted silhouette helps communicate motion and emphasis. It also works well for sports-leaning identities and bold editorial callouts, especially at medium to large sizes.
The overall tone is bold and upbeat, combining a sporty forward motion with a slightly nostalgic, sign-paint-inspired warmth. Its slant and thick forms project speed and confidence, while the rounded details keep it friendly and approachable rather than severe.
The design appears intended to deliver a high-impact italic display voice that feels fast, modern, and approachable. By combining robust strokes with rounded, ink-like terminals, it aims to balance punchy readability with a distinctive, energetic personality.
The italic angle is consistent across caps, lowercase, and figures, helping lines feel cohesive in longer settings. Apertures tend to be somewhat closed and counters relatively small for the weight, which increases impact but favors headline use over long text.
