Purchasing an American or State flag can be difficult. With all the choices of materials, weights, and sizes, you can become overwhelmed. With questions like:

Which flag should I buy?
What are the differences other than price?
What material holds up the longest?

This page’s purpose is to answer these questions, but if you still aren’t sure, give us a call at 281-309-4448. We can help.

Best Quality

HERCULES^TM POLYESTER FLAGS

Our finest quality flag—a customer favorite with over 10 years of proven performance—is also our best selling flag. Made from Hercules^TM Polyester, a knitted micro–mesh fabric that is stronger yet lighter in weight than conventional nylon, this flag flies out beautifully in the lightest of breezes, but is exceptionally well-suited to 24/7 non-stop flying.

Hercules^TM Polyester fabric is dyed using superior jet-dyed technology which infuses the dye into the fabric, for brilliant, light-fast colors that contain added UV protection, to protect the flag from damaging ultra-violet rays (which not only fade colors, but erode the fibers of the fabric).

Constructed with sewn stripes and embroidered stars*, the Hercules^TM Polyester flag combines dazzling good looks with rugged durability, and has proven itself to be one of the longest lasting flags on the market.

With exceptional appearance, increased flag life, and minimal cost, the Hercules^TM Polyester flag is the best value in the industry. If you are not fully satisfied with the Hercules^TM Polyester flag, send it back for a full refund.

These beautiful nylon flags are made from 100% heavyweight nylon (200 denier). The American flags are constructed with sewn stripes and field, and high density embroidered stars that are bright and shining. All seams are double-stitched and there are 4 to 8 rows of stitching on the fly end depending on the size of the flag. The header is made of heavy-duty canvas and uses solid, non-rusting brass grommets. Flags 8′x12′ or larger have a heavy-weight nylon rope sewn into the header with galvanized metal thimbles, and reinforced with 2 “X-Box” stitching.

ECONOMY POLYESTER FLAGS

Our Epoly flags are printed on a solid piece of lightweight 100% woven polyester. Double stitched all around for extra durability and finished with a strong white header and brass grommets. This flag will float on the barest of breezes, and is an inexpensive choice for occasional flag flying. An ideal “first” flag for children.
