Details about our
Embroidered Embassy Flags
When deciding on the quality and construction of a flag it is important to consider where you are going to use a flag, and what conditions the flag will endure. All flags will eventually deteriorate in an outdoor enviroment. Some are more durable than others.
The decision becomes one of finding the balance between durability and cost. An excellent choice for home use and most commercial uses is the "embassy flag". Our embassy flags are heavy weight sewn flags, not printed. That means that the compnents are individually sewn together and the stars are embroidered. Unlike polyester flags, embassy flags are not one piece of cloth with a printed flag on it.
The up-side of the embassy flag is that it has a very high quality appearance and is more duarable than printed polyester flags. The down-side is that it takes a little bit more wind to make them extend into the wind and flutter. An embassy flag will typically last twice as long as printed polyester flags.
It is usually a good idea to buy more than one flag so you can change your flag when it fades or begins to fray. Flying a worn out or faded flag defeats the purpose.
