Sizes vary by style. Pleated fan flags (half-circle bunting) are commonly offered in sizes such as 36 x 72 in (3 x 6 ft), 24 x 48 in (2 x 4 ft), and 18 x 36 in (1.5 x 3 ft). String/garland banners are often sold in long lengths (examples: ~33 ft) and may include many mini flags (see next item). Pennants and mini flags typically measure about 8.5 x 5.5 in (or mini flags around 8.2 x 5.5 in). Paper or cardstock shapes are sometimes listed in ranges (roughly 5.5 x 5.25 to 7.75 x 7.25 in), and some garlands list overall lengths such as 180 in.
Many buntings are suitable for outdoor use, but weather resistance varies by material and construction. Polyester and plastic/string banners are commonly described as suitable for indoor and outdoor decorating; some pieces note fade-resistant colors and heavy‑duty brass grommets for outdoor hanging. Certain plastic letter or corrugated-plastic banners are described as waterproof or weather resistant. Check the product specifics for UV/fade treatments and stated outdoor suitability.
Lengths vary by product. A common example is a string banner about 33 ft long that includes 38 mini USA flags (mini flags roughly 8.2 x 5.5 in each). Other garlands list included cord lengths such as 10 yards (30 ft) or 24 ft of ribbon; pennant sizes in these strings are typically around 8.5 x 5.5 in.
Listings mention professional printing and treatments to preserve color: many products advertise fade‑resistant colors or expert printing of stars and stripes. On polyester items, dye‑sublimation printing is noted to produce vivid, bright, and crisp colors. Check the product description for the exact printing method and fade-resistance claims.
Some flag-style buntings are sold ready for pole mounting and will note that a pole mount is included or that a pole is sold separately. Textile fan flags commonly include three heavy‑duty brass grommets for hanging. Product listings should be checked to confirm whether any specific mounting hardware is supplied or must be purchased separately.
