Before you buy a flag for a US
state themed event, there are so many factors that you consider – one of the
most important being the material that it is made of. Like choosing the right
clothes is important for you, it’s equally important to choose the right
material for flags to make them last for years. While you have a lot of
materials on offer, here is some guidance on pros and cons of each type of
material that you can choose from when buying USA state flags.
Pros of nylon flags
Being one of the most popular
material, nylon is also durable and versatile. This material is slightly shiny,
not too thick, quick drying and available in multiple bright colors. If you
stay in a windy area, this is probably the best material to choose as the flag
will fly in all its glory, displaying your love for US and your state, even
when there’s slightest of breeze. It’s also budget-friendly, available easily
and suitable for all types of events – indoor and outdoor.
Cons of nylon flags
Since it is a lightweight
material, it does not last as long as other fabrics. Though it dries quickly,
it won’t be able to bear extreme weather conditions in some of the US states.
If you’re planning an outdoor event and want a more durable material, you might
want to look at other options like polyester.
Pros of polyester flags
This is by far one of the most
durable flag materials that is perfect for outdoor use as it lasts longer than
any other material available in the market. Even if the weather conditions go
extreme, USA state flags made out of it will last and bear what comes their
way. Also available in bright colors, these flags won’t fade away easily.
Cons of polyester flags
The appearance of polyester flags
is dull as compared to nylon flags and they also are rough to touch. This is
because the material is heavier and thicker too. If you’re looking for flags
that fly easily in the slightest breeze, polyester might not be the best
material to choose. Polyester flags are more expensive than nylon flags so you
might have to pay a little more to buy them.
This guidance is only to help you
choose the best material for flags that you’re buying for events. When making a
purchase online, you get a lot of benefits – some of which I had listed in my last blog. You can read it here.
