A heavy, slanted sans with compact proportions and broadly rounded curves. Strokes are thick and largely uniform, with blunt terminals and softened corners that keep the texture from feeling sharp. Counters are relatively tight (notably in B, R, 8, and 9), producing a dense, high-impact color, while the overall rhythm stays steady and even across the set. The lowercase shows single-storey forms (a, g) and simple, utilitarian construction; figures are robust and headline-oriented with a sturdy, oval 0 and a strongly shaped 1.
Best suited to headlines and short, punchy messaging where its weight and slant can carry the layout. It works well for sports and fitness branding, packaging callouts, labels, and bold UI or signage elements that need immediate visibility and a sense of motion.
The tone is forceful and kinetic, with a forward-leaning stance that reads as active and confident. Its dense weight and rounded geometry give it a retro, workmanlike feel reminiscent of sports branding and industrial labeling, while remaining friendly rather than aggressive.
Likely drawn to deliver maximum impact with a clean, modern silhouette and a built-in sense of speed. The rounded, simplified forms suggest an intention to stay approachable while still reading loud and confident in display settings.
The design favors clarity through big shapes and simplified detailing over delicate differentiation, making it most comfortable at larger sizes. The slant is pronounced enough to convey motion, and the bold punctuation and dots hold their ground visually in running text.
