A heavy, slanted sans with a compact, monoline feel and strongly rounded curves. Letterforms are built from sturdy, geometric bowls and straight-sided stems, producing a dense texture with clear, consistent rhythm. Corners are generally softened rather than sharp, and the italics are achieved with an oblique tilt while keeping the construction robust and uniform. Numerals are similarly stout and rounded, matching the letters’ wide counters and tight interior spaces.
Best suited to headlines, posters, and branding where strong emphasis and fast readability are needed. It works well for sports-themed graphics, merchandise, packaging callouts, and bold UI labels, especially when a compact, high-impact italic voice is desired.
The overall tone is forceful and energetic, with a sporty, poster-like presence. Its bold, forward-leaning stance reads as confident and urgent, evoking retro athletic branding and high-impact headlines.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum emphasis in a space-efficient footprint, combining a strong oblique stance with rounded, geometric construction for a modern-retro display voice.
The slant and heavy weight create strong horizontal momentum, while the rounded bowls keep the color from feeling brittle. The tight apertures and compact counters give it a solid, ink-rich silhouette that favors display sizes over delicate settings.
