This invention provides a flag ( 1 ), consisting of a flexible membrane ( 2 ), a shaft ( 3 ) and distending means comprising rods ( 4.1 ) and ( 4.2 ). The shaft ( 3 ) is hollow and forms a sleeve about a flag staff ( 7 ). The flexible membrane ( 2 ) has a leading end ( 5 ) and a trailing end ( 6 ). The leading end ( 5 ) is removably attached to the sleeve ( 3 ). Each rod ( 4.1 ) and ( 4.2 ) has a fixing end and a free end. The fixing ends are friction fixed to the sleeve ( 3 ) by means of a collar ( 8 ) located on the sleeve, and the free ends are retained in pockets ( 6.1 ) and ( 6.2 ) provided in the trailing end ( 6 ). In use, the rods ( 4.1 ) and ( 4.2 ) exerts a pressure from within the membrane ( 2 ), resulting in the distended state of the flag ( 1 ) under all weather conditions.
