A heavy, oblique sans with a rounded-rectangle (superellipse) construction throughout. Strokes are thick and smooth with softened corners, creating sturdy silhouettes and generous black area, while counters stay relatively tight and rounded. Terminals are blunt and rounded rather than sharply cut, and curves feel slightly compressed, giving letters a compact, forward-leaning rhythm. Numerals and lowercase follow the same softened geometry, producing a cohesive, bold texture in words and short lines.
Best suited for bold headlines, sports and motorsport-style branding, event posters, product packaging, and logo wordmarks where a compact, energetic voice is needed. It will also work for short UI labels or badges when you want a punchy, rounded display look, but it is less suited to long-form reading at small sizes due to its dense weight and tight counters.
The font reads as fast, upbeat, and assertive, with a distinctly sporty, retro-advertising flavor. Its rounded mass and italic slant convey motion and confidence without becoming aggressive, making it feel friendly and high-impact at the same time.
Designed to deliver a high-impact italic sans built from rounded-rectangular forms, prioritizing speed, cohesion, and strong silhouette recognition. The consistent soft corners and compact proportions suggest an intention to feel modern yet nostalgic, optimized for attention-grabbing display typography.
The overall color is dense and even, with clear separation between strokes despite the tight counters. The oblique stance and rounded corners work together to keep large text smooth and legible, while the compact shapes create strong presence in display settings.
