A heavy, forward-slanted sans with rounded, softly squared contours and sturdy, low-contrast strokes. Counters are open and fairly generous for the weight, with smooth curves and blunt terminals that keep the silhouettes solid and compact. Uppercase forms read broad and stable, while lowercase shows a simple, contemporary construction with a single-storey a and g and a clean, geometric rhythm. Numerals are full and rounded, matching the letterforms’ dense, even color and consistent stroke behavior.
Best suited to headlines, branding, and short-form messaging where a strong, dynamic voice is needed. It works well for sports and lifestyle identities, posters, packaging callouts, and digital hero text where bold emphasis and quick recognition matter.
The overall tone feels energetic and contemporary, with a brisk, sporty momentum from the slant and a confident, high-impact presence from the weight. Rounded shaping keeps it approachable rather than severe, balancing assertiveness with a friendly, modern voice.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, high-impact sans that stays friendly through rounded geometry, while the consistent slant adds motion and immediacy. It prioritizes strong presence and clear shapes for attention-grabbing display typography.
Letterfit appears on the tight-to-moderate side, helping the font form strong word shapes in display sizes. The slant is steady and uniform across caps, lowercase, and figures, contributing to a cohesive, fast-paced texture in running lines.
