Kokudou 615China (China) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz
This design takes the form of a single road route marker, reading G615, set in bold red and white with the flat, uncluttered look of modern transport signage.
Visual Elements & Composition
Red covers most of the design, with white making up the rest. The route marker is a horizontal rounded rectangle, and a white outlined border runs inside its edge. The alphanumeric designation G615 sits centred in the frame, with nothing else competing for attention. The result is minimalist and direct, with the numerals doing all the work.
Meaning & Symbolism
The marker echoes the standard route signs used on the national highway network in China, where a letter prefix and a number identify each road. The term kokudō, meaning national road, names the same category of route in Japanese, and the Kokudou 615 name draws on that tradition of numbered arterial roads. The design celebrates the navigational logic of these networks, where a single code tells a driver which road they are on and how it connects to the rest of the country. It is a piece of modern graphic design rooted in the everyday language of the road.
Designed to Be Read Up Close
A shot glass is small and lifted close to the eye, so the marker is read at arm's length rather than across a room. The bold red field and the crisp white border stay legible at that distance, and the single code gives the glass a clear focal point. It makes a practical conversation piece for anyone who has ever followed a route number across a map, and a thoughtful gift for a traveller, driver or road enthusiast.

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.
- Bar service: quick, consistent pours — less wobble when carrying a tray of shots.
- Tastings: uniform size is handy for sampling flights or spirit tastings.
- 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.
