A sturdy italic slab-serif with thick, blocky serifs and gently bracketed joins that soften the corners. The strokes are largely even in weight, with rounded curves and a compact, forward-leaning rhythm. Counters are relatively open for a slab style, while terminals stay firm and squared, giving letters a crisp footprint. Numerals and capitals read strong and stable, with consistent serif treatment and a slightly condensed, energetic stance in text.
Well suited to headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and short-to-medium passages where an italic voice is desired without sacrificing weight and stability. It can work effectively in packaging, signage, and display applications that benefit from a strong slab-serif silhouette and energetic forward motion.
The overall tone feels assertive and workmanlike, with a classic, print-forward character. Its italic slant adds momentum and emphasis, creating a spirited, vintage-leaning voice that can feel both editorial and lightly athletic.
Likely intended to provide a robust italic companion with strong slab authority—delivering emphasis and motion while preserving a solid, dependable texture typical of classic slab-serif display typography.
The design balances chunky slab presence with smooth curvature, avoiding sharp contrast and maintaining an even, continuous texture across lines. The italic angle is noticeable but controlled, making it suitable for longer phrases while still signaling emphasis.
