Connecticut Highway 108 Wide Road Sign Hoodie: Design Overview
This hoodie showcases a faithful reproduction of the Connecticut Route 108 wide road sign, a familiar sight for drivers navigating southwestern Connecticut. The design pays homage to the official signage utilized by the Connecticut Department of Transportation (ConnDOT) on guide signs, specifically those found on highways and at intersections.
Authentic Road Sign Representation
The artwork directly mirrors the visual elements of the wide format route marker. The design employs a horizontal rectangular format, essential for effective legibility on larger guide signs. A clean white background provides a contrasting canvas for the black text, maximizing visibility at a distance.
Key Design Elements
The design prominently features the identifying elements of the route. At the top, "CONNECTICUT" (or sometimes "CT") is rendered in a simple, easy-to-read, small uppercase font. Centered below, the bold black numerals "108" clearly indicate the specific route number. A thin black border cleanly outlines the entire design, reinforcing the structure and mirroring the standard aesthetic.
Meaning and Symbolism
The design represents a tangible connection to Connecticut's transportation network and a specific highway, Route 108. The artwork symbolizes navigation, direction, and the journey itself. It visually links to the historic "Farm Highway," representing the passage of time and the evolving landscape of communities in Fairfield County. The inclusion of the design is a subtle nod to the landmarks and locations along this important stretch of road.
