WIS 176 (Wisconsin) (Road Sign) Shot Glass 1.5oz

Design Overview

This shot glass features a design that pays homage to Wisconsin State Trunk Highway 176 (WIS 176), a former state route in La Crosse County. The artwork replicates the distinctive road sign used to mark this now-decommissioned highway.

Visual Elements and Representation

The central element of the design is a white square, reminiscent of the traditional Wisconsin state highway marker shape. This square is bordered by a thin, classic black outline, giving the design a clean and straightforward appearance.

Inside the white square, the bold black numerals "176" are prominently displayed, centered to capture the essence of the highway's identification. The simplicity of the design, using only the number, is consistent with the standard for Wisconsin state trunk highway markers.

Meaning and Symbolism

The design of the WIS 176 shot glass evokes a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era of Wisconsin roadways. It symbolizes a specific place and time in Wisconsin history, connecting to the city of La Crosse and the route’s former existence on Clinton Street, St. Andrew Street, and Gillette Street.

By replicating the official road sign, the design serves as a lasting tribute to WIS 176 and its role in the transportation network.

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.
