A condensed italic slab serif with square, unbracketed serifs and an overall forward-leaning posture. Strokes stay fairly even, with crisp joins and a slightly angular, engineered feel rather than calligraphic modulation. The narrow proportions and tall lowercase create a vertical, high-waisted rhythm, while counters are compact and apertures are modest, keeping the texture tight and energetic. Numerals and capitals follow the same condensed, slanted construction with clean terminals and sturdy slab feet.
Best suited to headlines, subheads, pull quotes, and poster typography where a condensed italic voice helps fit more characters while retaining impact. It can also work well for sports and event branding, packaging callouts, and other applications that benefit from a fast, emphatic tone.
The tone is brisk and assertive, combining a utilitarian slab backbone with the urgency of an italic slant. It reads as sporty and editorial at once—suggesting speed, emphasis, and a slightly vintage display sensibility.
The design appears aimed at delivering a compact, space-saving slab serif with built-in emphasis, pairing sturdy unbracketed serifs with a pronounced italic stance for energetic display use.
In text samples the tight spacing and condensed forms build a strong, continuous typographic color, which can feel punchy at larger sizes. The italic angle and squared serifs give emphasis even without heavier weight, making it naturally attention-grabbing in short bursts.
