Kansas State Flag | Eder Endura-Nylon Outdoor Flag

The Kansas state flag displays the state seal on a dark blue field, with the word "Kansas" in gold letters below and a sunflower crest above. The seal itself is one of the most detailed in the nation, depicting a panoramic Kansas landscape with a rising sun, a river with a steamboat, a wagon train heading west, Native Americans hunting bison, a settler's cabin, and a farmer plowing a field. Thirty-four stars above the seal represent Kansas as the 34th state. The state motto "Ad Astra per Aspera" (To the Stars Through Difficulties) arcs across the top of the seal.

This Eder Endura-Nylon Kansas flag is purpose-built for the relentless wind conditions of the Great Plains. Kansas ranks among the windiest states in the country, with sustained winds that can shred a poorly constructed flag in days. The 200-denier Endura-Nylon fabric with SolarGuard finish provides the UV resistance needed under the wide-open Kansas sky, where there is little shade or shelter from the sun. Reinforced fly-end stitching is essential in this environment. Canvas heading with brass grommets delivers the secure attachment needed for high-wind display. Made in the USA by Eder Flag.

About the Kansas State Flag

Adopted in 1927 (with "Kansas" added in 1961), the Kansas flag reflects the state's frontier history and agricultural identity. Kansas became the 34th state on January 29, 1861, just months before the start of the Civil War. The state's nickname, "The Sunflower State," is represented by the wild sunflower crest atop the flag. The seal's imagery tells the story of westward expansion: the Oregon Trail crossed Kansas, and the state served as a gateway to the frontier. The motto "Ad Astra per Aspera" speaks to the hardships endured by Kansas settlers, from drought and prairie fires to the political violence of "Bleeding Kansas" in the 1850s that foreshadowed the Civil War.
