I-77 WV Metric (Virginia) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz - Design Description

This shot glass presents a playful take on Interstate 77's signage, playfully acknowledging the absence of metric units on the highway in both West Virginia and Virginia. The artwork centers on a familiar element of the American interstate system, but with a humorous twist.

Visual Elements & Representation

The design prominently displays the iconic Interstate shield. This is immediately recognizable, featuring the classic red, white, and blue colors, with the large white numeral "77" boldly presented. The use of this imagery is a direct nod to the route it references, Interstate 77.

The "WV Metric (Virginia)" text is humorously added to the road sign. This text is strategically placed to highlight the design's self-deprecating nature. It represents the hypothetical or, in this case, non-existent "I-77 WV Metric" or "I-77 VA Metric" signage, as these were never implemented. The brackets signify that this design considers that I-77 runs through West Virginia and Virginia, which is essential to the joke. The use of the road sign layout and style is to visually emulate an actual road sign. The deliberate design of the artwork is to invoke the history of road signage for those who enjoy the subject.

Meaning & Symbolism

The design's core meaning lies in its whimsical take on highway standards and historical events. The artwork playfully imagines something that never existed – a metric version of the I-77 sign for the states. The use of the interstate shield evokes the theme of American travel. Overall, this design captures a sense of humor and appreciation for the intricacies of road design and historical facts.

Compact, heavy-based shot glasses made from clear, restaurant-grade glass. One standard size (1.5 oz / β‰ˆ44.3 ml) β€” 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 (β‰ˆ44.3 ml) β€” 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 β€” 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 β€” 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 (β‰ˆ44.3 ml). Use the dimensions below for shelving, packaging, or tray planning.
