A heavy, right-leaning sans with broad proportions and energetic, wedge-like terminals. Strokes show noticeable modulation for a sans, with thick main stems and tapered joins that create a slightly calligraphic, brush-cut impression while staying largely closed and sturdy. Counters are relatively tight and rounded, and the overall silhouette is chunky with crisp edges and a consistent forward slant across caps, lowercase, and figures.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as headlines, posters, sports and event branding, packaging callouts, and logo wordmarks where the bold slant can signal motion and emphasis. It can also work for brief subheads or pull quotes, especially when strong presence is more important than extended readability.
The font reads assertive and fast, with a sporty, action-oriented tone. Its slanted, muscular forms give it a retro display flavor that feels loud and confident rather than delicate or formal.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum punch with a sense of speed: a bold italic display sans that combines wide stance, tapered stroke behavior, and compact internal spaces to create an energetic, brand-forward voice.
Spacing appears on the tighter side, which amplifies density and impact in words. The figures match the letterforms’ weight and slant, maintaining a cohesive texture in mixed alphanumeric settings.
