PRODUCT DESCRIPTION FOR THE STATE OF MICHIGAN FLAG 

The Michigan flag was adopted in 1911. It consists of the state seal on a blue field. In the seal, a moose and an elk stand on either side of the shield and a picture of a man waving the shores of Lake Michigan with a sun rising behind him. The latin translates to "If you are seeking a pleasant peninsula, look around you, I will defend and From one, many"

Our state flags are made from 100% high quality lightweight knitted polyester, specially made for flags, is UV resistant and does well in all weather conditions.

Artwork and Proofing for Custom Windsocks and Flags

At the Custom Windsocks Company we understand that artwork can be a bit of a headache when ordering. Our aim is to take the pain out of ordering such that you can be confident in the product you're getting. 

FREE Proofs and Mock-ups

For all custom products we provide free proofs. You can rest assured that we won't simply go to production and produce something that you were not expecting. TO speed up the proofing process, add your notes in the "notes" section when ordering.  Tell us what would like to see  ie: "change my logo to red and add the text "ABC" under it".  Important note: This applies only to custom products, not  "personalized" products where you choose our design template and add your name/text.

FREE Logo Vectorization

We will vectorize your logo for free (and then give you the file!). What does this mean? It means that we will turn your lo-resolution art into "vector art" which will not pixelate when enlarged for FREE. Oftentimes this is a barrier for many people as they cannot locate their vector file from when their logo was created or they simply just don't have it. No worries, we'll do it for you AND we'll send it to you for future use with us or anyone else you may want to get things printed with for FREE (T-shirts, business cards, promo products...they all need a vector file). We'll even pull your logo off a business card, sign, T-shirt or anything you can get a decent photo of! 

FREE Logo Alteration

We can manipulate your logo so that it will show up well on your custom windsock or custom flag. This means we can take your stacked logo and turn into a landscape version so it fits well on your product or we may flip your color scheme around such that it shows up well on the windsock or flag. Of course, you can request this or we may take the liberty of doing it and then showing you a couple of options to see if you like it.    

Flag Sizing

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 standard flagpole lengths

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. 

There are a few ways you can install your flag onto a pole, most of which depends on how you're going to use it. If you're using it for a rodeo or parade, the materials and tools you need will be different than if you're installing it on a commercial flagpole. At the Custom Windsock Co, we finish our flags either with grommets or a 2" sleeve that is closed on top.

Custom Rodeo Flags are best Finished with Sleeves 

Sleeved flags are generally used for parades and rodeos because

• They offer a quick, tool-free installation 
• Any generic pole or dowel can be used (max 1" diameter)
• The flag is not being exposed to the elements for a long period of time, no need for clips or reinforcements are needed

Custom Flags for Outdoor Poles are best Finished with Grommets

If you plan to use your flag outdoors for long periods of time, it is best to have your flag finished with grommets as it offers a stronger connection onto your pole.
