The Flag Shop

A bit of a flag chuckle with an inspirational twist.

Another story from New Zealand, this one is more historical in nature.

What’s happening in New Zealand is a really interesting use of democracy. While flags are often collaborative efforts, they are rarely voted on. Some are questioning the 26 million dollar price tag attached to this process, while others are becoming extremely involved in campaigning for the flags they love best.  I wonder if this will set a standard moving forward.

The flag of Thailand is all over social media these days.

Paul Servos, from The Flag Shop Victoria, was interviewed for this article. It’s a nice light look at the significance of flags in their communities.

Pakistan is a fascinating country in regards to the rights of transgender people. It is also home to some the worlds best quality flags.

This video was shared with us on Twitter! A great look at a very unique world flag. Happy Flag Friday!

This is a recent custom job we worked on, a subdued Canadian flag. While this is normall reserved for small emblems, the colouring allows members of the military to present their national identity without compromising the utility of their camouflage.

Flag presentation can be confusing at times...we’re currently at work putting together an infographic to clear up some issues.  This format is technically correct, as the most significant flag is supposed to be presented to the far left (from the viewer’s perspective). However, there is also precedent for the Canadian flag to be in the location closest to an entrance. 

Great flag news in Vancouver!
