🏴 3' x 4.5' Flag of St. Louis with grommets and double stitched edges to reduce fraying.
✍️ The Design: The flag of St Louis designed by Theodore Sizer, has a solid red field and has two broad heraldic wavy bars, colored blue and white, extending from the left top and bottom corners toward left center where they join and continue as one to the center right edge. This symbolizes the confluence of the Missouri and Mississippi rivers. Over the point of confluence a round golden disk upon which is the fleur-de-lis of France (blue) calling attention to the French background of the early City and more particularly to St. Louis of France for whom the City is named. The golden disk represents the City and/or the Louisiana Purchase. (Heraldically, the disk is a "bezant" or Byzantine coin signifying, money or simply purchase.) The flag's colors recall those of Spain;(red and yellow or gold), Bourbon France (white and gold), Napoleonic and Republican France (blue, white and red), and the United States of America (red, white, and blue).
Our flags are durable 200D polyester (most flags you'll find on the internet are cheap ~75D). In our testing, we selected 200D as the perfect flag material; anything heavier doesn't fly well and the "back" doesn't get enough ink, anything lighter feels cheap and wont last very long.
We print this flag as a one-sided print and make sure that the back has ample (around 90%) bleed-through.
Each flag is folded by hand on our dining room table and ready to be used on a flag pole, boat, hung on a wall, or to proudly march with.
Created in the most Earth-conscious way we can. We use home-compostable and discreet shipping bags.

Great flag for a great price and a great cause. We have ours hanging on our wall and the colors are stunning. Exactly as described and shipped quickly.
St. Louis is a wonderful city and I loved seeing this flag everywhere. Got one because I really like the design. I've bought many flags from FFG and the quality is always phenomenal. This flag is no exception. Soft texture, grommets are sturdy, and not a seam out of place. Thank you for this flag.
To show the world we are from Sr. Louis and proud of it/
