A condensed, heavy sans with a consistent forward slant and an inline stripe that cuts through the main strokes. Letterforms are built from broad, blocky shapes with softened corners and largely uniform stroke thickness, creating a strong, poster-like silhouette. Counters are compact and geometric, and the inline detail follows the contours to suggest a layered, dimensional treatment while keeping the overall texture dense and even. Numerals and capitals are similarly robust, with simple construction and minimal ornament beyond the internal line.
Best suited to short, prominent text where the inline detail can be appreciated—headlines, posters, team or sports-themed branding, event promotions, packaging callouts, and merchandise graphics. It also works well for bold numbers in jerseys, signage, or score-style treatments where condensed width helps fit content into limited space.
The overall tone is high-impact and kinetic, mixing a rugged utilitarian feel with a throwback display attitude. The inline carving adds a flashy, motion-and-depth cue that reads as sporty and attention-grabbing rather than delicate or formal.
Designed to deliver maximum impact in a compact footprint, using a carved inline to add depth and visual interest without introducing extra contrast or ornament. The consistent slant and dense construction emphasize speed, intensity, and a strong display presence.
The dense fills and narrow set create strong vertical rhythm, while the internal inline provides separation within heavy strokes for added clarity at larger sizes. The style relies on bold silhouettes and a consistent slant, so it reads best when given room to breathe rather than in tightly packed paragraphs.
