A heavy, slanted slab-serif with compact, squared-off construction and crisp unbracketed serifs. Strokes are broadly uniform, with corners often sheared into wedges and small ink-trap-like notches that add bite at joins and terminals. Counters are tight and geometric, and the overall rhythm is dense and forward-leaning; numerals share the same chiseled, blocky logic for strong consistency in headlines.
Well suited to sports identities, event and promotional posters, bold editorial headings, and apparel graphics where a fast, aggressive voice is helpful. It also works for packaging or product marks that want a tough, engineered feel, especially at larger sizes where the angular detailing remains clear.
The tone is forceful and kinetic, suggesting speed, impact, and competitive energy. Its rugged, machined detailing also lends a utilitarian, industrial flavor that reads as tough and no-nonsense rather than refined.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a forward-slanted stance and hard-edged slab construction, balancing sturdy legibility with sharp, energetic character. The consistent, squared geometry across letters and figures suggests an emphasis on branding and display use rather than quiet reading.
The design leans on straight segments and flat terminals, producing a strong stencil-like sturdiness without actually breaking strokes. In longer text the texture becomes emphatic and dark, so it reads best when given breathing room and used for short, high-impact phrases.
