Iowa State Flag | Eder Endura-Nylon Outdoor Flag

Iowa's state flag is a vertical tricolor of blue, white, and red, inspired by the French Tricolore in recognition of the Louisiana Purchase territory from which Iowa was carved. At the center, a bald eagle carries a blue ribbon in its beak inscribed with the state motto "Our Liberties We Prize and Our Rights We Will Maintain." The word "Iowa" appears in bold red letters below the eagle. It is one of the few US state flags with a clear French-influenced design, reflecting the state's territorial roots.

This Eder Endura-Nylon Iowa flag is built for the demanding Great Plains weather that Iowa experiences throughout the year. From scorching summer heat and humidity to brutal winter cold, ice storms, and the powerful straight-line winds that barrel across the open farmland, Iowa's climate tests every outdoor flag. The 200-denier Endura-Nylon fabric with SolarGuard finish fights UV fading and holds colors through temperature extremes. Reinforced fly-end stitching is critical in a state where sustained winds are a daily reality. Canvas heading with brass grommets. Made in the USA by Eder Flag.

About the Iowa State Flag

Iowa's flag was designed by Dixie Cornell Gebhardt of the Iowa Daughters of the American Revolution and adopted in 1921. Iowa became the 29th state on December 28, 1846, carved from the Louisiana Purchase territory that the United States acquired from France in 1803. The French tricolor pattern honors that heritage. The state motto carried by the eagle, "Our Liberties We Prize and Our Rights We Will Maintain," was adopted in 1847 and reflects the independent, self-reliant character that defined Iowa's settlers. Iowa's central location in the heartland and its role as America's leading agricultural state give the flag deep resonance as a symbol of the nation's breadbasket.
