US Flag Made in USA
I'm having trouble finding a quality US flag. US flags as I understand it should be made in the USA. Some that I have purchased online turn out to be made in China. I have a 20 foot flag pole a fly a 3x5 flag. We almost always have wind blowing in the 10 to 20 mph range and sometimes more. Flags are lasting about six weeks on average even taking them down at night. My pole is lighted and I would like to leave it up 24/7. Does anyone know of a quality US made flag company? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

It is a requirement for the US government since 2021 to buy US flags made in the USA.
It has been a requirement for the department of defense since 1941.

Another endorsement for Allegiance. You can't do any better.

Here is another option:

I believe they make all of their flags here in Arkansas.

Thanks everyone, I have ordered a flag from Allegiance. The flag shipped within hours of my order. Now that's service. I'll report back after it's been up for six weeks. Thanks again

The quality is great. Have had mine for over a year and it's standing up just fine in quality. Those folks are great.

Bob has already ordered but in case anyone else is in need of a new 3x5 US Flag, this one from Annin is marked down to under $10 on Amazon. It's the lighter weight poly/cotton version so a light breeze gets it to waving nicely. Our average wind speed is around the 10 mph range I guess but we do get those higher sustained winds at times. I normally get a few months of use with this Flag. It's 100% American made!

Anyone have luck with solar lighting? I got a cheap spotlight on a stake with about a 3X5" panel. It lasts several hours but not all night.

I have this one, it works great. Lasts *all* night long too. Bought it in Nov 2023, still working great.
