Default U. S. Made flags

This company came up on my FB page today. I don’t know anything about them but if you want to check them out here’s a link. I think it’s great that someone actually makes a quality American made U. S. Flag.

Joe Parish is a fellow Pontiac fanatic/owner, an all-around great guy, and owns Capitol Flag, in Houston, TX.

He carries U.S. made flags, as well as making flags in-house.

Does anyone know if Joe, or anyone else, repairs flags? I have a 48 Star flag from WWII that needs repair. There is no way I'll have destroyed.

Gary, have you contacted the local historical society? They may know someone that can do the job.

Just bought a couple of flags from Capital Flags. Great guys to deal with and got to talk Pontiacs with Joe.

They have a 20% promo on their website currently.

Thanks for the recomendation.

I usually buy one every year. After they've been flying for a year or so they become slightly faded, and sometimes the ends fray a little. At that point they're retired to indoor use. They're starting to add up. Imma have to start giving them away lol

On another note, I've always thought it should be illegal to produce American Flags in any country besides the USA.

I buy flags at least once a year. I fly them 24 hrs (with light) and they take a beating. I have been getting them from flags dot com and have been happy with their service. I use historic flags and do see that Capitol has them as well. Looks like I will be getting an order placed with the discount presently offered.
