A heavy, rounded sans with an oblique slant and broadly proportioned letterforms. Strokes are full and even, with softened corners and oval/circular bowls that keep the texture dense but smooth. Counters are relatively tight in letters like B, P, and R, increasing the sense of weight, while the diagonals (V, W, X, Y) read sturdy and stable. Numerals follow the same chunky, rounded construction, with simple, open shapes that hold up well at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and short bursts of text where a strong, energetic voice is needed. It can work well for sports branding, product packaging, and bold logotypes that benefit from wide, rounded forms and an italic-forward sense of motion. For long reading, it will be most comfortable in large sizes with ample line spacing.
The overall tone is bold and kinetic, with a friendly, sporty attitude. Its rounded geometry and forward lean suggest speed and motion while staying approachable rather than aggressive. The dense black shape and wide stance give it a confident, headline-driven presence with a slight retro flavor.
Likely designed as a high-impact display sans that combines broad proportions with rounded geometry and an oblique stance to communicate momentum. The consistent, softened shapes suggest an emphasis on friendliness and approachability while still delivering maximum visual weight for attention-grabbing typography.
Spacing appears intentionally generous for such heavy forms, helping prevent the oblique weight from clogging in all-caps lines. Lowercase forms keep a straightforward, geometric feel, with single-storey shapes where expected and a consistent, rounded rhythm across the alphabet.
