All of our nylon American flags have individually embroidered stars and sewn stripes and are hand-sewn using double-lock stich seams (unlike other flags using chain stiches). Each flag uses DuPont SolarMax Nylon for superior strength and color brightness and are finished with strong canvas headers and brass grommets (sizes 8' X 12' and larger have Roped Header and Heavy Duty Metal Thimbles). These flags exceed US Government specifications and are in stock for immediate shipment. Made in the USA.
