A heavy oblique sans with rounded, geometric construction and smooth curves throughout. Strokes are sturdy and consistent, with softened terminals and generously rounded bowls that keep the silhouette approachable despite the strong weight. The slant and slightly condensed feel create forward motion, while counters stay open enough for clarity in large sizes. Numerals are similarly robust and rounded, matching the letterforms’ compact, high-impact rhythm.
Best suited for short, attention-grabbing text such as headlines, posters, product packaging, and brand marks where a bold, energetic presence is desired. It also works well for sports-themed graphics, event promotions, and punchy UI callouts when set at larger sizes.
The overall tone is energetic and assertive, with a sporty, contemporary voice. Its rounded geometry and soft endings temper the intensity, giving it a friendly, promotional feel rather than an industrial one. The oblique angle adds urgency and momentum, suggesting action and emphasis.
The design appears intended to deliver high visibility and a sense of motion, combining geometric roundness with a strong oblique stance. It prioritizes impact and a clean, contemporary texture for display-led typography.
Uppercase forms read particularly solid and sign-like, while lowercase shapes maintain a simple, single-storey sensibility that reinforces a casual, modern character. The italic angle is consistent across letters and figures, producing a cohesive, leaning texture in text settings.
