Description
Our Nigeria flags are constructed in the USA from nylon, a fray—and weather-resistant material. Nylon is a quick-drying fabric that helps prevent mildew growth after rain and high humidity. The green and white tricolor is added using digital print for vibrant, UV-resistant colors, making our flag of Nigeria perfect for outdoor flying.
Each Nigerian flag has a robust canvas header and brass grommets for straightforward attachment to an outdoor flagpole. We offer this flag in sizes 2’ x 3’, 3’ x 5’, 4’ x 6’, 5’ x 8’, and 6’ x 10’ to fit a variety of different needs. If you aren’t sure which option to choose, view our table of common flagpole heights and their proportional flag size.
