I've bought several of these over the last five years. This one seems thinner and more sheer, I can see right through it. Anyone else have the same experience?   Jesse Sic Semper Tyrannis | ||

Not familiar with the brand, but that's one of the thinnest looking flags I've ever seen. Ego is the anesthesia that deadens the pain of stupidity DISCLAIMER: These are the author's own personal views and do not represent the views of the author's employer. | |||

They produce 100% US made/sourced flags, with production in Virginia. This is the fifth one I've owned (according to Amazon purchase history). I don't ever remember them being so sheer. Here's a company video, long history and US made. It's a company I'm happy to give my money to. Jesse Sic Semper Tyrannis | |||

I looked at them a couple of years ago. They don't make an official size US Flag (aspect ratio 1:1.9) so I didn't buy from them. I only fly official sized flags. Valley Forge offers them, but they were out of stock the last time I looked (they are also an American company). flashguy Texan by choice, not accident of birth | |||

I bought my parents a Model 2710 from Amazon back in 2013. It cost $25.91. The flag still looks great even though it’s used March through November at the coast. No fraying and no noticeable fading. In September I caught the same model on sale for $23.14. This one hasn’t been opened. I’ll take a look at it and report back later. | |||

For over a decade I've only used their nylon flags and usually get a new one every year, but a couple of years ago I bought one of their Tough-Tex flags and was disappointed in its lack of longevity (color-fastness, durability, etc.). Since then I've gone back to using only the nylon flag. | |||

Hmmm… The new one is not of the quality I recall. It will be several weeks before I can compare head to head. | |||

My flags fly 24/7and they last about 4-5 months in a high wind Zone. I've had better lifespan on the Anley Flags USA Made 12-month warranty https://www.anley.com/usa-flag...ly-american-us-flag/ this is 3x5 I need 4x6This message has been edited.

Yes, I have noticed that as well. I have been using the Annin Tough-Tex flags for quite a few years now. With that said, I fly mine 24x7X365 and I have gotten about 10 months or so before they either get a tear or start fading. The last one has been up a couple of months now and so far no issues with it. “Government exists to protect us from each other.
