Description
Our Arkansas state flag is the best way to display your Arkansawyer pride to the whole neighborhood!
These Arkansas flags are proudly made in America and are available in either nylon or polyester. Nylon is recommended for general use, as it is a lightweight, quick-drying material that flies gracefully even in light winds. Polyester is a tougher, heavier material and is intended for use in environments with severe weather conditions. Please note that polyester flags are often too heavy to fly from house-mounted flagpoles.
Each flag of Arkansas is equipped with a sturdy canvas heading and brass grommets for easy flying on an outdoor flagpole.

If you plan to iron your flag to remove any wrinkles, we recommend reading our flag ironing instructions first.
