My 3'x5' flag is getting a little faded and worn from being flown outside of my home and I'm looking for a quality replacement. Does anyone have any suggestions?

It has to be American sourced and made for us to stream. Presently streaming products by Allegiance Flag Supply.

SSG Carlos Madden Annin makes a good flag for a reasonable price. Manufactured in Ohio and Virginia. Take a look at their "Tough-Tex" for outdoor flags. You can get them on Amazon Prime shipped next day.

I've had good experiences with Annin products in the past. I'm pretty sure my US Army flag is made by them.

This is a great question SSG Carlos Madden and got me thinking if I could find a better quality American Flag. So I’ve done a little searching and found these folks. Although not cheap but look to be well made and maybe can holdup to the elements. I also like the looks of there Non-Tangle Flagpole Spinners. I’ll probably get me a set of the spinners and see if they hold up better then the plastic ones I use from Valley Forge that break all the time. What I really need is to invest in a telescopic flagpole and it’s on my list.

What is a high quality, outdoor, made in the USA, American flag?

I think the ones you can buy from your Representative or Senator are really good quality, and they don't cost too much. They have cotton or nylon flags. I don't know what brand(s) they use though.

COL Randall Cudworth - I'd love to get one of the big ones (5'x8'), but I don't have a large enough flagpole.

COL Randall Cudworth - I had a 3x5 flown over the Capital back in 1990 that was at my commissioning, every promotion, and every assignment. I bought little white tags like we used for our names on goretex and every event one was sown on the flag.

I have flown Annin & Valley Forge but my last one came from veteran owed Grace Alley. This is my first time flying one of theirs and seems to be of good quality. But I am also a fan of both Annin & Valley Forge.

Lot's of good advice here already, so I just wanted to thank you for taking pride in Old Glory and respecting her enough to keep her looking good.

Lately, I've seen flags upside down or tattered to bits. Sad.

So... Thank you!
