Increase the Life Span of your Flag

A flag's life span is impossible to predict; it is like predicting the weather. The major enemies of a flag are wind, sun and carelessness. Neither you nor we can control the weather, but you can take care of your flag and lengthen its life by doing the following:
  • Occasional washing in warm mild detergent.
  • Let your flag dry thoroughly before storing it.
  • Have your flag repaired at the first sign of fraying.
  • Take your flag down at night and during bad weather.

How Many Flags?

Our flags are manufactured to give maximum service in return for reasonable care and prudent use. Remember, no two flags receive identical wear. The best way to stretch your "flag dollar" is to have three flags:
  • One flying
  • One in the wash
  • One clean and in storage for special occasions.
