Flag Day

Flag Day, is a day for all Americans to celebrate and show respect for our flag, its designers and makers. Our flag is representative of our independence and our unity as a nation…..one nation, under God, indivisible. Our flag has a proud and glorious history. It was at the lead of every battle fought by Americans. Many people have died protecting it. It even stands proudly on the surface of the moon.

As Americans, we have every right to be proud of our culture, our nation, and our flag. So raise the American Flag today and every day with pride!

Flag Day is also a day for the Boy Scouts of American to learn the proper burial for the American Flag. Flag-Works donates retired American Flags every year to a local Boy Scout Troop to achieve their experience.

Flag-Works carries American Flags in Nylon, Polyester and Cotton that are Made in the USA. Sizes range from 4″ x 6″ up to 50′ x 80′ larger can be custom made.

American flags – Nylon versus Polyester

Nylon American flag

 People always ask me what’s the best outdoor American flag?  Well, I always answer “that depends”.  You see each flag material works better in different environments.  So I then ask a few more questions like:  Where are you flying the American flag, on a flagpole? Off the side of a house, indoors outdoors, in the shade, in the open by a lake, in a field, in the city, in the country. I may also ask, how high up, how low to the ground, all these variables have effects on the flag.  My experience, tells me that 90% of the American people can fly the nylon American flag with great results in any location. The nylon is light but strong.  It has great fly ability in the slightest breeze and it can maintain its construction even in the strongest of winds.

Polyester American flag

The other 10% will do better to fly a woven 2 ply polyester American flag.  This flag is heavy and strong.  However, it needs a strong breeze to get it moving.  This is perfect for large flags on larger flagpoles, which generally get higher winds. Again location is everything.  Both, the nylon flag and the polyester American flags have high fade resistance capabilities (again depends on where the flag is flown).

One place I would not fly a polyester American flag is off the side of  a house or building.  House mounted flagpoles, which already have the flag in a flying position, risk a heavy rain soaked flag, pulling the bracket from the wall.
