A heavy, oblique slab-serif design with sturdy, blocklike serifs and mostly squared terminals. Strokes are bold and confident with noticeable contrast, especially where curved forms thin slightly into joins and counters. Uppercase shapes feel broad and stable, while the lowercase keeps a classic, text-oriented structure with round bowls and short, firm slab feet. The numerals are weighty and clear, with simple, upright forms that match the font’s strong horizontal emphasis.
This face works best for headlines, posters, labels, and branding where a strong, tilted slab look adds urgency and emphasis. It also suits editorial display applications such as pull quotes, section openers, and masthead-style treatments where dense color and bold serifs help typography hold the page.
The overall tone is energetic and punchy, combining a vintage, print-forward feel with a sporty sense of speed from the slant. Its dense black color and squared details read as confident and attention-seeking, suited to bold statements rather than quiet reading.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum impact with a bold, slanted slab-serif voice—combining the sturdiness of square-ended serifs with a dynamic, forward-leaning stance for attention-grabbing display typography.
The italic angle is consistent across cases, and the slab serifs create a strong baseline and headline rhythm. Counters are relatively compact, which increases impact in display sizes and gives the texture a tight, poster-like presence.
