A heavy, rounded sans with a consistent oblique slant and smooth, low-contrast strokes. Forms are built from broad curves with softened joins and terminals, giving letters a slightly “inflated” silhouette rather than sharp geometry. Counters are generally compact and round, while openings in letters like C, S, and G stay fairly generous for clarity. The overall rhythm is lively and forward-leaning, with a sturdy baseline presence and simple, clean construction across letters and numerals.
Best suited to short-to-medium display text where impact and momentum are desired, such as headlines, posters, product branding, and packaging. The rounded forms and strong color also make it a good fit for sports-themed graphics, event promotion, and bold UI moments like buttons or feature callouts when set with ample spacing.
The tone is energetic and approachable, combining a sporty forward motion with a friendly, rounded warmth. It reads as modern and casual, with a light retro echo reminiscent of athletic branding and upbeat display typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a strong, contemporary display voice that feels fast and upbeat without becoming harsh. By pairing a pronounced slant with rounded construction and uniform stroke weight, it aims for high visual impact with an inviting, accessible character.
Uppercase shapes feel sturdy and headline-oriented, while lowercase retains clear, simplified silhouettes with single-storey forms where expected. Numerals match the same rounded, weighty voice, maintaining uniform presence suitable for prominent settings.
