Deciding on the size of flag you want is really about the desired appearance you want your flag pole to have when it's flying your flag. The sizes below are suggested for the length of flagpole you have installed.
Generally speaking, the flag length should be between 1/3 and 1/4 of the flagpole height. Of course, this is a matter of taste, but many flags flown at government and public institutions follow this rule of thumb.

You should always check your flag size against the recommended flag size and load that your flagpole manufacturer recommends. Often times if a flagpole is flying too large a flag, it will become overloaded and break.
Our custom flags are designed to be compatible with any flagpole. The custom flags are finished standard with grommets, but on request we are able to finish the flags with thimbles, rope and toggle, sleeves, fringe and all other kinds of special flag finishings to make your installation easier.
