Difference Between Nylon and Polyester American Flags

At Flags USA, one of our most frequently asked questions is, what is the difference between our nylon and polyester American flags?

Firstly, all of our flags are made 100% in the U.S.A. Secondly, all of our American flags have hand-embroidered stars, sewn stripes, and a strong canvas heading with two grommets.

Our nylon flags are a lighter weight material, which means that it flies consistently, sheds water, and the colors are a bit more vibrant.

Nylon flags can be purchased and used for any and all situations and displays (i.e. outdoor poles and indoor displays).

Our polyester flags are a heavier material, and do not shed water like the nylon flags. It also takes more wind for the polyester flags to pick up and fly, however these flags will last longer than the nylon flags.
