Description
Our flag of Mali is produced in the USA from nylon, a lightweight material designed for outdoor flying. Nylon is especially used for its water-resistant properties and durability. Additionally, the green, yellow, and red tricolor is printed with advanced digital technology for vibrant, fade-resistant colors.
These Mali flags have a robust canvas header and brass grommets for straightforward attachment to an outdoor flagpole. If you are considering hanging this flag against a wall or fence, we recommend adding grommets to the fly corners.

Mali Flag Meaning & History
The first national Malian flag was adopted in 1959 upon Mali’s independence from France. This flag had the same tricolor design as the modern version but had a black Kanaga figure in the center. The Kanaga was removed on March 1, 1961, since the majority of Mali’s Muslim population viewed the depiction of human beings in art as against their faith.
The green represents the region's fertile land, while gold is for the natural resources. The red symbolizes the bloodshed in the fight for independence.
