I-15 AZ Metric (Arizona) Pint Glass - Design Overview

This pint glass celebrates a unique piece of American transportation history: the I-15 AZ Metric road sign experiment in Arizona. The design encapsulates a specific era when the U.S. briefly flirted with a full metric conversion of its highway system.

Artwork and Visual Elements

The central design showcases the iconic Interstate 15 shield. The shield, a familiar symbol to drivers nationwide, features the bold number "15" against a backdrop of the classic red, white, and blue. However, this is no ordinary I-15 sign. The design also incorporates subtle cues to indicate its metric nature.

The design also replicates the metric-era signage. Elements such as the kilometer distance markers and km/h speed limit indicators would have accompanied the primary I-15 shield on actual roadways.

Meaning and Symbolism

The artwork represents a moment in time when the U.S. attempted a large-scale conversion to the metric system. The inclusion of metric units symbolizes this push, reflecting a national effort that was ultimately short-lived.

The sign itself is a relic of that era, embodying the ambition and, ultimately, the unrealized potential of metric highway signage. It's a tribute to a bygone era in road design and a reminder of a different path that American roadways might have taken.

Clear 16 oz (≈0.47 L) pint glasses made from solid glass with a heavy base for steady placement. Narrower at the bottom for an easier grip and balanced feel — durable, dishwasher-safe, and ideal for both serving and mixing.

These pints are crafted from 100% clear glass that showcases the drink inside — color, clarity and carbonation are all visible. A heavier, solid base reduces tipping and gives the glass a satisfying weight in the hand while the gently tapered body makes holding and carrying more comfortable.

Built to last, the construction resists chipping under normal use and is suitable for busy service environments as well as retail display. One-sided print work reads bright against the clear surface; the overall aesthetic is clean and modern.

  • Material: 100% clear glass for pure clarity and gloss.
  • Capacity: 16 oz (standard U.S. pint / ≈0.47 L).
  • Base: heavy solid glass base reduces tipping and improves balance.
  • Shape: narrower bottom for a comfortable grip and easier carrying.
  • Durability: dishwasher-safe and built for regular use.

Use these glasses for draft pours, mixed drinks, iced beverages and more. Their clear walls show off color and bubbles, which makes them a great choice for menus, tasting flights, and bars where presentation matters.

  1. Serving: ideal for beers, sodas, iced teas and cocktails served cold.
  2. Mixing: also works as a simple mixing glass for shaken or stirred cocktails in casual settings.
  3. Display: clean silhouette fits behind bars, on shelves, or on retail racks.

Quick tip: because the base is heavier, these glasses feel stable on trays and counters — handy when serving multiple drinks at once.

These glasses are dishwasher-safe; place them on the top rack and use a regular household cycle. For best longevity, avoid stacking them tightly and steer clear of high-heat commercial wash cycles when possible.

Hand wash with warm water and mild dish soap when you want to preserve maximum clarity and avoid sudden temperature shocks. Handle by the body, not just the rim, to reduce the chance of accidental chipping.
