A heavy, slanted slab-serif with compact proportions and a tightly engineered rhythm. Strokes are broad and squared-off, with flat, blocklike serifs and clipped, angled corners that create a chiseled silhouette. Counters are relatively tight and the joins are sturdy, giving letters a dense, poster-ready texture. Numerals and capitals keep a consistent, robust stance, while the lowercase maintains a practical, upright structure under the italic slant.
This font is well suited to sports identities, team marks, and energetic headlines where a strong, slanted slab-serif presence is desired. It can also work effectively on packaging, labels, and badge-style graphics that benefit from compact, high-impact letterforms and a rugged, engineered tone.
The overall tone is forceful and energetic, with a distinct athletic and workmanlike edge. Its bold, squared details and forward lean suggest speed, strength, and confidence, leaning toward a retro sports or heritage-industrial feel.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum punch and motion in a slab-serif framework, combining strong rectangular serifs with an italic lean for urgency. Its clipped corners and tight counters prioritize a bold, emblematic look that holds together in prominent, short-form typography.
The italic angle is pronounced enough to read as dynamic without becoming calligraphic, and the squared terminals keep the forms crisp at display sizes. The design favors sharp, mechanical cuts over soft curves, which helps maintain a uniform, punchy color in headlines.
