A heavy, forward-leaning slab serif with squared, unbracketed terminals and a largely uniform stroke feel. Letterforms are compact and angular, with flattened curves, tight apertures, and boxy counters that keep the silhouette dense and punchy. Serifs read as blunt slabs that lock cleanly into stems, while diagonals and joins maintain a crisp, engineered rhythm across upper- and lowercase and numerals.
Well suited to sports and team-oriented branding, apparel graphics, and high-impact headlines where bold, slanted forms help communicate motion and confidence. It also fits industrial or workwear packaging and short, attention-grabbing poster typography where compact, angular letterforms hold up at larger sizes.
The overall tone is energetic and forceful, with a sporty, no-nonsense presence that echoes athletic branding and rugged signage. Its italic slant and block-like construction give it a sense of speed and impact while staying grounded and utilitarian.
The design appears intended to deliver a tough, athletic slab-serif voice with an italicized sense of motion—prioritizing impact, solidity, and a tightly packed rhythm for branding and display settings.
The slanted construction and tight interior spaces create strong word shapes at display sizes, but the dense counters and compact apertures visually concentrate the texture in longer lines. Numerals follow the same squared, sturdy construction, supporting cohesive headline and scoreboard-like settings.
