Our flags are sewn with a lock stitch,why is this important to you?

Lock stitch means that each stitch is locked together. If a thread breaks it won’t unravel because each stitch is secure.

BUYER BEWARE: Cheaper flags sold by others may be chain stitched. Chain stitch flags can easily rip and unravel if the thread breaks at any point.

The difference between
Nylon & Polyester.

Both fabrics are commercial grade. Polyester costs more than Nylon but that doesn’t mean polyester is the better flag. Here’s why...

U.S. Nylon Flags

Our outdoor quality nylon U.S. flag is durable yet light weight to fly in the slightest breeze. Dries quickly and is fade resistant.

Our Capitol Flag nylon U.S. flag is specifically designed for active outdoor use. Unsurpassed in beauty and craftsmanship, our flags are made using 100% heavyweight, 200-denier nylon bunting specially treated to resist sun and chemical deterioration. America's #1 choice, these flags are extremely durable and fast drying.

  • Tough, durable, long-lasting fabric exhibits strength under UV exposure.
  • Dries quickly and flies beautifully, even in the slightest breeze.
  • Unsurpassed craftsmanship is proven with embroidered stars, sewn stripes, interlocking stitches and multiple rows of stitching on fly end for added durability. All outdoor flags are finished with a strong, durable snow-white header and brass grommets.
  • Extremely durable heavyweight bunting material of 100% nylon. All side seams are double-stitched and finished with heavy-duty, no-shrink white header material for the strongest headers in the industry.

Our nylon fabric is highly resistant to UV fading, allowing the use of deeper, brighter colors that will last over time. In addition, our fabrics offer better washfastness and lightfastness than other nylons of similar fabric construction. They will retain their good looks long after the competition has called it a day.
