Custom flags?

Unread postby Split » Mon Aug 17, 2009 1:44 pm

I got an idea for making school flags for our track meets, so after someone wins, they get a flag like in the Olympics/WC. What type of material would be best to use for the flag itself?
I'm getting the design screen printed..
I never met a pole I didn't like.

Nice idea!

Here's the contact page for a flag shop in Vancouver, Canada. I think they do custom orders for flags.

I'm sure there's American stores like them too, as it would be a hassle to import these into the States. If there is, they could tell you.

Thanks :D
I would go to a local swap meet or screen printing store but they only make sweaters, shirts, etc.
And I also wonder what would be the best material for flags, as they are mostly used to working with cotton or polyester.
