The 10 Best American Flags
This wiki has been updated 30 times since it was first published in July of 2015. Display your pride in your country with one of these American flags. We've included models small enough to be carried and waved at parades through to enormous options that can be seen from far away and are fitting for businesses and schools. Although a surprising percentage of options are currently made in China, we've ensured that all of these are manufactured in the United States. When users buy our independently chosen editorial choices, we may earn commissions to help fund the Wiki.

Editor's Notes
October 08, 2019:
Most people in the market for an American flag want to display it proudly for all to see, so most of the models on this list can be flown outdoors. The U.S. Flag code states that "The flag should not be displayed on days when the weather is inclement, except when an all-weather flag is displayed," so if you live in an area that gets a lot of rain and snow and still want to be able to keep your flag up all year, make sure you get an all weather model like the Annin Tough-Tex.
Standard flag size is 3 by 5 feet, so that's the most common size in the options listed here. However, there are exceptions, so if you have a flag pole made for a standard flag, make sure to double-check the measurements before you buy. Some, like the Valley Forge Commercial, are available in multiple sizes, ranging from 2'x3' all the way up to 10'x19'.
While the Stars and Stripes can be displayed all year long, Fourth of July is an especially popular day for the flag. For Independence Day in particular, the Windstrong Hand Held makes a great choice for parades and the Valley Forge Antiqued can help you celebrate the history of the early days of the republic.
