Description
Show your pride for the Silver State by flying a top-quality Nevada state flag!
These flags are manufactured in the United States using nylon, a durable and lightweight fabric. This means that your flag will fly regally, even in gentle breezes. Additionally, nylon is quick to dry, helping prevent mildew growth. The design is digitally printed using UV-resistant inks for bold colors that resist fading, even when flown in direct sunlight.
Our Nevada state flags, sized 6’ by 10’ and smaller, come equipped with a canvas header and brass grommets for easy hoisting on any of our outdoor flagpoles. Flags that are 8’ by 12’ and larger are instead finished with nylon rope and thimbles for added security.
The state of Nevada flag is available in a wide variety of sizes, including our bestselling 3’ by 5’ flag. To help you decide what size flag to buy, we’ve compiled a table of recommended flag size and flagpole height pairings.

Nevada Flag Meaning & History
An early version of Nevada’s flag had gold and silver stars and the words “silver,” “Nevada,” and “gold” emblazoned against a dark blue background. The following design, which was much more complex, featured a shield drawn from the state seal. It also included a railroad on a trestle, a team of four horses drawing a wagon, a mine, a sheaf of wheat, agricultural tools, and a sun rising over mountains.
In 1926, Louis Shellback III created a new flag design. He was an artist for the state highway department. This design was almost identical to the flag used today. However, at the time of its adoption in 1929, a state representative recommended that the state's name be added to the emblem. Instead, the name of the state was arranged around the star. The current Battle Born Nevada flag, which became official in 1991, moved the letters of the state name to be written in a single line beneath the star.
