futura condensed extra bold

Certainly custom. John's got the closest match.

undefeated actually does not use nike's font (look at the E)
so just try futura no. 1 sb, univers 85, whatever until you find a "close enough" match just like undefeated did

id just use frutiger exra bold condensed, or futura..
that nike font is probably hand drawn.. i dont care too much for it.
its drawn a bit weird
- the contrast between the stem and the arms on the 'E' are a bit weird (the arms are awkwardly thicker than the stem)-the top diagonal on the K veers off from the wait and the bottom diagonal is also awkwardly thick compomisingthe top diagonal
- the diagonal on the N could be a bit too thick too, and the whole letter could be moved milimetrically to the left to make for better kerning..
but im just a student(whos slightly obssessive) and im often wrong ;)

it is actually the font that says run on air...sorry for the confusion but it is not their primary logo with the swoosh...

Really close to Tempo, but a bit heavier and with pronounced ink traps.
