Pole Flags in Denver

Custom feather flags, teardrop flags, and rectangular pole flags printed on premium fabric. Hardware included. Ready in as little as 3 business days.

Pole flags — also called feather flags, swooper flags, or teardrop flags — are the vertical fabric banners you see outside car dealerships, restaurants, open houses, retail sales, and event venues. They're one of the most effective ways to grab attention from the street because they move in the wind and read from a distance. PostNet Denver prints custom pole flags for Denver businesses, dealerships, realtors, and event planners.

We print on a premium knitted polyester flag fabric using dye sublimation — that means the color is dyed into the fibers, not just printed on the surface. The result: vibrant color that resists fading, edges that don't fray, and a banner that reads equally well from both sides (dye sub bleeds through for near-perfect double-sided visibility).

Every pole flag order includes the flag, the carbon fiber or aluminum pole, and a ground stake, cross base, or water-fillable base depending on where you'll install it. We also offer replacement flag-only orders if you already have the hardware.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between a feather flag and a teardrop flag?

Feather flags (also called swoopers) have a tall narrow shape with a curved top that angles back — they look like a feather or a check mark. Teardrop flags are rounder with a flat back edge and a curved/pointed front — they look like a teardrop. Both work similarly; feather is more popular for vertical space, teardrop reads better at shorter heights.

Are your pole flags double-sided?

Effectively yes. We print single-sided using dye sublimation, and because dye sub dyes the fibers rather than just printing on the surface, the design bleeds through to the back at near-full opacity. The back reads as a mirror image of the front, which works fine for most logos and symbols. If you have text that must read left-to-right on both sides, we can do true double-sided printing for an added cost.

Will the flag hold up in Denver wind?

Our premium polyester fabric is rated for outdoor use and holds up well in typical Denver conditions. However, sustained high winds (gusts over 30 mph) can shorten the life of any pole flag. For windy locations or permanent installations, we recommend taking flags down during storms or choosing a heavier hardware package.

Do I need to bring in my existing pole to reorder a flag?

No — just tell us the brand and height (or measure the flag portion of your existing setup) and we can print a replacement flag to match. We stock several different flag sizes and can match most common pole dimensions.

What artwork works best for pole flags?

Bold, simple designs with high-contrast colors and minimal small text read best because the flag moves in the wind. One big word or logo beats a paragraph of text. Our designers can adapt your existing artwork into a pole-flag-friendly layout.

How fast can I get a pole flag in Denver?

Standard turnaround is 3-5 business days because dye sublimation requires heat-press time that regular digital printing doesn't. Rush service is sometimes available depending on our production queue — call us first before you drop off artwork.
