A heavy, slanted sans with broad, rounded strokes and compact internal counters. Shapes are built from simple geometric masses with softened corners, producing a sturdy silhouette and consistent color in text. The italic angle is pronounced, with many terminals cut on a diagonal, and curves (like O/C/S) stay smooth and full rather than sharply squared. Letterforms show a slightly compressed, forward-leaning rhythm that emphasizes momentum and impact.
Best suited to display settings where impact matters: headlines, posters, branding marks, packaging, and sports or streetwear-themed graphics. The strong weight and slant can also work for short UI labels or callouts, but it’s most effective when used in larger sizes where its rounded geometry and diagonal terminals are clearly visible.
The overall tone is energetic and assertive, with a sporty, headline-driven feel. Its rounded construction keeps the weight from feeling harsh, adding a friendly, playful edge to an otherwise punchy voice.
This design appears intended to deliver maximum visual punch while staying approachable, using a bold, forward-leaning structure and rounded forms to suggest speed, emphasis, and modern retail or sports communication.
Round characters such as O and 0 appear nearly circular and dense, while diagonals in letters like A, K, V, W, X, Y and the numerals reinforce the forward motion. The lowercase set reads as compact and sturdy, with a single-storey a and a prominent, rounded dot on i/j that maintains visibility at display sizes.
