Product Description

The Polyester American Banner is crafted from 100% 2-ply spun polyester, engineered to allow wind to pass through the fabric and reduce stress on the flag. Its durable construction makes it an excellent choice for high-wind locations and flags flown every day. Designed for lasting outdoor performance, this American banner combines traditional sewn craftsmanship with weather-resistant materials.

The red and blue dyes are specifically formulated to resist the fading effects of weather, helping maintain the flag’s vibrant appearance through outdoor exposure. This polyester construction is designed for demanding flying conditions while maintaining the traditional appearance of a finely crafted American flag.

The Continental Congress adopted the Stars and Stripes on June 14, 1777, with 13 stripes for the original colonies and 13 stars for a new constellation. As states joined the Union the star count grew, and the 50-star pattern in use today was set on July 4, 1960 after Hawaii became a state. The rules for displaying the flag, including half-staff and nighttime display, are set out in the United States Flag Code.

Embroidered stars are the mark of a sewn flag, and a signature-grade banner enlarges them so the flag reads as sewn from a distance. The sleeve finish comes from the house pole tradition: a short staff in an angled bracket by the door, with the flag slid over it rather than clipped to a halyard.
