I-82 OR Metric (Oregon) Shot Glass Design

This shot glass design celebrates a fascinating, albeit brief, moment in American transportation history: the experimental use of the metric system on Oregon highways. The primary visual element is the Interstate 82 shield, a recognizable symbol of the U.S. Interstate Highway System.

The Iconic Interstate Shield

The shield itself, rendered in classic Interstate colors, is a prominent declaration of the route. The iconic shape, with its bold red "INTERSTATE" banner and blue field bearing the white "82", immediately signifies a major highway. The inclusion of "OREGON" above the route number further specifies the location, reflecting Oregon's typical style for Interstate shields during the era of metric experimentation.

Metric Context

The design's significance lies in its subtle connection to the metric system trials. While the shield itself remains unchanged, the design evokes the context of a metric-signed zone, implying a world where distances and speeds are measured in kilometers. This juxtaposition highlights the experimental nature of the initiative, representing a period of transition in road signage.

The artwork, therefore, captures the essence of a unique historical event, memorializing the brief time when Oregon explored using metric units, offering a glimpse into a "what if" scenario for highway signage.

Compact, heavy-based shot glasses made from clear, restaurant-grade glass. One standard size (1.5 oz / โ‰ˆ44.3 ml) โ€” 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.

Theyโ€™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 (โ‰ˆ44.3 ml) โ€” 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 โ€” 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 โ€” 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 (โ‰ˆ44.3 ml). Use the dimensions below for shelving, packaging, or tray planning.
