A slanted, outline-only slab serif with rounded corners and gently bracketed joins. The letterforms are broad and open, with smooth curves and soft terminals that keep the contour continuous and readable despite the hollow construction. Strokes maintain an even visual thickness around the perimeter, and the shapes favor sturdy, slightly inflated proportions with modest, blocky serifs. Spacing feels generous, and the outlines stay consistent across caps, lowercase, and numerals for a cohesive, uniform rhythm.
Best suited to short, prominent text where the outline can breathe—headlines, posters, signage, and packaging panels. It also fits sports and retro-themed branding, event graphics, and large-scale editorial callouts where a lively, vintage-leaning voice is desired.
The overall tone is upbeat and nostalgic, suggesting classic signage and casual athletic lettering. Its airy outline treatment adds a light, breezy feel, while the slab-serifs and wide forms keep it confident and extroverted. The result reads as friendly and attention-getting rather than formal or restrained.
The design appears intended as a display outline slab that delivers a bold presence without heavy fill, combining sporty, retro cues with a light, open interior for flexible layering and color treatments in graphic layouts.
Uppercase forms lean toward display proportions with simplified internal geometry, while the lowercase retains clear, single-storey-style silhouettes and rounded detailing that helps at larger sizes. Numerals match the same soft, chunky silhouette and slanted stance, supporting cohesive titling and numbering systems.
