Default Re: May a flag be worn in clothing?

Hi there David! I'm not Peter but i can still answer your question

A bandana is not a real flag - that doesn't mean it can be treated disrespectfully - but it does mean the rules of etiquette are different.

Personally - i would say yes to wearing the flag on your head - and no to writing on it - there must be some other things you and friends could sign to send back home.

Just for the record heres a visual image of what i think of wearing flag clothes!



Thank you for your service in the military
i am greatful

don't need to destroy the shirt as you would a flag, because it isn't really a flag.

_____________

I'm trying to understand: when is a flag a "real" flag?

If I make and wear a shirt that is (printed) fabric in the exact proportions and colors of the flag, but it wasn't finished for a flagpole FIRST, then is that a flag?

But If I take a commercially made flag (embroidered, OR printed fabric) and sew it into a shirt, then that is (was) a real flag, and real desecration?
