A heavy, forward-slanted slab serif with square-ended terminals and broad, blocky letterforms. Strokes are consistently thick with minimal modulation, and the serifs read as sturdy, integrated slabs rather than delicate brackets. Counters are compact and apertures tend toward the closed side, giving the face a dense, high-impact texture. The lowercase shows robust, simplified shapes and the numerals match the same squared, weighty construction for a unified typographic color.
Best suited for headlines and short, emphatic copy where strong presence is needed—posters, sports and team branding, bold packaging callouts, and high-contrast signage. It can work for brief subheads or pull quotes, but the dense texture suggests keeping longer passages to larger sizes and generous spacing.
The overall tone is bold and forceful, with a sporty, poster-like energy. Its italic slant and compact internal spaces add urgency and momentum, while the squared slabs evoke a utilitarian, retro-industrial attitude.
This font appears designed to maximize impact with a sturdy slab-serif framework and an energetic slant, prioritizing bold silhouettes and strong rhythm for attention-grabbing display typography.
The design favors strong silhouettes and tight rhythm over openness, which helps it hold together at display sizes. The combination of stout slabs and compressed counters produces a dark, punchy line in text settings.
