Advertising Flag Shapes, Sizes and Base Options Guide
Choose an advertising flag as a matched graphic, pole and base system. Feather angled and convex, teardrop and rectangle flags each use different templates and size ranges; the approved placement surface then determines whether a ground stake or compatible hard-surface base is appropriate.
Match the sign to its surface, viewing distance, exposure and permitted footprint.
Build a readable message
Prioritize one action, confirm the critical facts and adapt the layout to the product shape.
Confirm the final configuration
Current product pages show the available size, material, sides, finishing and hardware choices.
Practical planning
Make the choice from real project conditions.
01
Compare the printed silhouettes
Feather flags use a tall tapered field, teardrops hold a rounded taut profile and rectangle flags preserve a broader rectangular layout. Rebuild the artwork inside the exact shape rather than stretching one finished file across all three.
02
Use the configured size range
Feather models list 9, 10.5, 14 and 18 foot assembled heights; teardrops list 7, 9, 11.2 and 13.5 feet; rectangle flags list 8.5, 11.8 and 15 feet. Graphic dimensions also vary within those assembled heights.
03
Match the base and viewing sides
The four shaped custom-flag families offer single print-through, reverse-orientation and double-sided graphic selections, plus compatible ground-stake and hard-surface base paths. Stock, desktop and pole flags have different options, so verify the exact model.

Feather Angled, Feather Convex, Teardrop and Rectangle flag products list a double-sided selection. Econo Stock and Desktop Teardrop flags are listed as single print-through only.
Which base should I use for an advertising flag?
Choose only from the bases listed for the exact model, then match it to the approved surface. Ground stakes and hard-surface bases serve different placements, and ballast requirements remain site-specific.
Can feather, teardrop and rectangle flags share hardware?
Do not assume so. Pole lengths, sleeve shapes and replacement components are family- and size-specific; match every graphic to its exact hardware product and base.
