Single vs Double-Sided Scout Flags
When ordering a custom Scout flag, you can choose between single-sided or double-sided printing. The best option depends on how and where the flag will be displayed.
Single-Sided Scout Flags
Single-sided flags are the most popular and cost-effective option for Scout groups.
Artwork printed on one side of the fabric
Design visible on the reverse as a mirror image
Lightweight and moves naturally in the wind
Ideal for campsites, parades and outdoor events
Lower cost compared with double-sided flags
This option works well when the flag will mainly be viewed from one direction or when maximum movement in the wind is desired.
Double-Sided Scout Flags
Double-sided flags provide a premium finish and perfect readability from both sides.
Two printed flag panels sewn together
Internal block-out layer prevents show-through
Artwork appears correctly readable on both sides
Slightly heavier but more structured appearance
Ideal for events where people approach from multiple directions
Double-sided printing is a good choice for exhibitions, recruitment events and busy public spaces where the flag may be viewed from all angles.
