A heavy, slanted sans with chunky strokes and subtly faceted curves that feel carved rather than purely geometric. Terminals are mostly blunt and slightly angled, with rounded corners that soften the weight. Counters are compact and irregularly shaped, creating a dense, poster-friendly color; the lowercase shows a tall profile with short extenders and a sturdy, upright rhythm despite the forward lean. The overall construction mixes straight segments with clipped curves, giving letters and numerals a rugged, cutout look that stays consistent across the set.
Best suited to short, prominent text such as headlines, posters, apparel graphics, sports branding, and punchy packaging callouts. It performs especially well when you want a dense, energetic typographic block; for longer passages, its weight and compact counters will likely feel loud and reduce readability.
The tone is bold and high-impact, with a lively forward motion that reads as sporty and promotional. Its angular, sculpted shapes bring a retro display feel—confident, attention-seeking, and a bit rough-edged in a deliberate way.
The design appears intended as a display sans that prioritizes impact and motion, using a strong slant and carved, angular shaping to create a distinctive, retro-leaning voice. It aims to stay legible under heavy weight while adding personality through faceted curves and blunt, angled terminals.
Digit shapes are stout and emphatic, matching the letterforms’ compact counters and angled joins. The strongest visual identity comes from the combination of pronounced slant, blunt endings, and the slightly chiseled treatment on curves, which produces a distinctive texture at larger sizes.
