171st Air Refueling Wing Shot Glass Design

This shot glass commemorates the 171st Air Refueling Wing (171 ARW) of the U.S. Air Force, a unit known for its vital air refueling capabilities.

Artwork Elements

The design prominently features the KC-135 Stratotanker aircraft, the workhorse of the 171 ARW. The aircraft is rendered in a dynamic pose, perhaps mid-refueling, to highlight its primary function of providing in-flight fuel to extend the range of military aircraft. This signifies the wing's core mission: enabling global reach and endurance for military operations.

The official unit emblem, incorporating the Air National Guard symbol, is likely positioned on the glass, reinforcing the identity of the 171st ARW and its ties to the Air National Guard. The emblem serves to identify the unit, reflecting its traditions and heritage.

The shot glass’s design is likely to incorporate the name and abbreviation of the unit: “171st Air Refueling Wing” and "171 ARW," to definitively identify the unit of the military.

Symbolism

The imagery of the KC-135 Stratotanker embodies the 171st ARW’s dedication to supporting global air power projection. The design is a tribute to the men and women of the 171st ARW, and their commitment to support for combat and humanitarian missions.

Compact, heavy-based shot glasses made from clear, restaurant-grade glass. One standard size (1.5 oz / ≈44.3 ml) — sturdy, stack-friendly, and built to handle frequent service without fuss.

These shot glasses feel solid in the hand thanks to a thick, weighty base that keeps them steady on busy bar tops. The walls are even and clear, giving a nice, unobstructed view of the pour; the rim is smoothed for comfortable sipping.

They’re engineered for regular use: consistent dimensions, dependable weight, and a simple silhouette that suits both casual venues and more formal tasting counters. Designed to perform rather than show off.

  • Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and clean presentation.
  • Capacity: 1.5 oz (≈44.3 ml) — standard shot measure.
  • Base: heavy solid glass base that reduces tipping and improves balance.
  • Construction: restaurant-grade durability for frequent handling and washing.
  • Print-ready: suitable for single-sided print applications that withstand typical use.

Perfect for quick pours, samplers, and neat shots. Their compact footprint makes them easy to place on trays and tasting lines, while the heavier base keeps things steady during service.

  1. Bar service: quick, consistent pours — less wobble when carrying a tray of shots.
  2. Tastings: uniform size is handy for sampling flights or spirit tastings.
  3. Events: robust enough for pop-ups, festivals, and busy bartending shifts.

Storage tip: store upright and avoid tight stacking to protect rims and preserve clarity.

Dishwasher-safe for everyday cleaning — place on the top rack and use a normal household cycle. Repeated exposure to very high commercial temperatures can shorten glass life, so choose gentler programs where practical.

When you want to extend clarity and finish: hand-wash with warm water, a mild detergent, and a soft cloth; dry right away to avoid water spots. Handle by the body (not the rim) to reduce accidental chipping.

One size only: 1.5 oz (≈44.3 ml). Use the dimensions below for shelving, packaging, or tray planning.
