Why choose a sewn nylon Texas flag over polyester?
Nylon flags fly better in low wind, dry quickly, and display vibrant colors. They’re great for general outdoor use in a wide range of weather conditions.
What makes a flag “sewn” versus “printed”?
Sewn flags have stitched panels and an appliquéd or embroidered star. Printed flags are single-sheet designs, less durable and less dimensional.
