A slanted slab-serif with bold, blocky serifs and predominantly square-ended terminals. Strokes stay fairly even in thickness with minimal contrast, giving a sturdy, mechanical texture. The letterforms are wide and open, with generous horizontal proportions and rounded corners softened into squared curves, producing a clear, consistent rhythm across capitals, lowercase, and numerals. The italic angle is pronounced and paired with firm, flat serifs that keep the silhouette crisp in text settings.
Best suited for display typography where the slanted stance and slab structure can project impact—such as headlines, sports and team-style branding, posters, and cover typography. It can also work for short editorial callouts, packaging, and promotional copy that benefits from a strong, energetic typographic voice.
The overall tone feels athletic and workmanlike, with a punchy, forward-leaning momentum. Its square slabs and steady weight lend a confident, no-nonsense voice, while the italic slant adds speed and emphasis that reads as promotional and headline-driven.
The design appears intended to combine the emphasis and speed of an italic with the stability of slab serifs, creating a robust display face that stays legible while signaling motion. Its wide proportions and square terminal logic suggest a goal of strong, reproducible shapes for attention-grabbing settings.
Spacing appears comfortable for continuous reading, and the sturdy serifs help maintain definition at larger sizes where the slanted forms need strong anchoring. Numerals share the same wide, squared construction, contributing to a cohesive, poster-friendly texture in mixed alphanumeric settings.
