American Nylon Outdoor Flag Starter Kit

Nylon is ideal for porch-mounted flags because it’s lightweight enough to fly in light breezes, dries quickly after rain, and puts less stress on 1" brackets and wood poles while staying bright and durable outdoors.

2x3 works best for 5 to 6ft porch flagpoles. 3×5 on 20ft in ground flagpoles; 4×6 on 25′ for flagpole for extra presence.

Outdoor lifespan depends on wind and sun. In windy or coastal areas, polyester usually outlasts nylon. Rotate a spare and trim early frays to extend life..

Yes. Most nylon and polyester flags can be hand-washed with mild soap and water. Allow to air dry fully before reuse.

The U.S. flag has a blue canton with 50 white stars and 13 horizontal stripes (7 red, 6 white), symbolizing the 50 states and the original 13 colonies.

American Flag Precedence — Quick Guide

• Position of honor: The U.S. flag is always highest and/or to the observer’s left (the flag’s own right).
• Same staff: Never place another flag above or on the same level as the U.S. flag on the same pole.
• Multiple poles (domestic): Put the U.S. flag on the leftmost pole (observer’s left) and/or highest.
• With other nations (diplomatic/UN style): All national flags are at equal height and size; order by protocol/alphabetical in English—never higher than another nation’s.
• State/municipal/organizational flags: Always subordinate to the U.S. flag.
• POW/MIA flag: Flies beneath the U.S. flag on the same pole, or on a separate pole to the U.S. flag’s right (observer’s left).
• Parades/processions: U.S. flag at the right of the line of march (its own right); if centered, it is ahead of the others.
• Crossed staffs (indoor): U.S. flag’s staff goes to the observer’s left, and its staff is in front of the other.
• On a wall (flat display): Union (blue field) at the top left (observer’s left), whether vertical or horizontal.
• On a stage/auditorium:
  • Speaker’s right (audience’s left) = U.S. flag.
  • Other flags go speaker’s left (audience’s right).
• Half-staff: Raise to the peak first, then lower to half-staff; when retiring for the day, raise to peak again, then lower.
• Over a street:
  • East–west street: Union faces north.
  • North–south street: Union faces east.
