American Nyl-Glo Flag 3ft x 5ft Nylon By Annin

3ft x 5ft US Flag Nyl-Glo Nylon By Annin

Annin knows a thing or two about making flags, as well they should because they have been making the Star-Spangled Banner in this country since 1847. With this 3ft by 5ft American flag, they have made a lightweight and eye-catching flag that includes some of the best resistance to UV radiation. What this means is your flag is going to keep its bright and lustrous colors even if it is getting its fair share of sunlight every day. This makes it a great choice for an outdoor flag. This flag comes with classic embroidered stars and sewn stripes for an attractive appearance, coupled with strength, and durability. It also features lock-stitched fly ends to keep it from fraying and weather-resistant brass grommets to take on whatever Mother Nature happens to throw at them. And being made with lightweight nylon, you aren't going to need too much wind to see Old Glory in all 'er glory. This 3ft by 5ft Nyl-Glo Nylon American Flag by Annin is proudly made in the U.S.A. and is a great looking flag made to wave outside your home for a long time to come.

While this flag is made for the outdoors, it will look just as fantastic indoors.

Is nylon a good outdoor flag?

Nylon is very much a good outdoor flag and has earned the nickname over the years of being known as the "all-weather flag." This is in part due to the fact that nylon has a reasonable amount of water resistance, dries quickly, and is generally resistant to sunlight as well. With rain and shine being the two main dichotomies of weather most Americans see this makes the flag a great fit for any and all kinds of weather.

What is an all-weather flag?

An all-weather flag is a flag that is made to handle the natural elements it encounters when being displayed outdoors. This is going to include things like rain, snow, wind, and sunlight. Although a flag should be brought in if inclement or severe weather is on the way, most all-weather flags can handle a little rain and such. 

Can a nylon American flag be washed? How do you clean it?

Yes! A nylon American flag can be washed. Whether a little bit of dirt has made its way onto your flag or you simply just want to see your red, white, and blue pop again, washing your nylon American flag will do the trick. You can do this by washing your nylon American flag separately in a washing machine on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. As for drying, you can either tumble dry low or air dry. 

How to retire a nylon American flag?

U.S. Flag Code states, “The flag, when it is in such condition that it is no longer a fitting emblem for display, should be destroyed in a dignified way, preferably by burning”. While this is an option, it should be noted that it is not the only one and may actually not be ideal for nylon flags. Some alternatives to this include placing the folded flag in a ceremonial triangle wooden box and burying it a few feet in the ground. You can also donate the flag to your local government or other places that accept them. This is going to include places like your local fire department, Village Hall and VFW.
