Costa Rica Flag Patch

Description

Proudly display your heritage or appreciation for Costa Rica with our Costa Rica Flag Patch. This embroidered badge features the iconic national flag of Costa Rica, a powerful symbol of its independence, its commitment to peace and democracy, and its rich natural beauty.

The Costa Rica banner features five horizontal stripes: a wide red central stripe, bordered above and below by two narrower white stripes, which are in turn bordered by two even narrower blue stripes at the very top and bottom. The blue represents the sky, opportunities, perseverance, and the Pacific Ocean and Caribbean Sea that embrace the country. The white signifies peace, wisdom, and happiness. The central, wider red stripe symbolizes the warmth and generosity of the Costa Rican people, as well as the blood shed by martyrs for the country’s defense and its pursuit of freedom. This unique design with a central wide red stripe is a nod to the French Tricolour, reflecting the ideals of the French Revolution. This harmonious blend of colours creates a fabric emblem that vividly articulates Costa Rica’s commitment to democratic values, its vibrant culture, and its aspirations for a peaceful and prosperous future. The current flag was officially adopted on November 27, 1906, having been originally designed in 1848 by Pacífica Fernández Oreamuno, the wife of President José María Castro Madriz.

Our Costa Rica mini flag patches measure 1.5″ x 2.5″ (approximately 3.8 cm x 6.3 cm), making them an ideal size for personalizing a wide range of apparel items. Each patch comes with an iron-on backing for quick and easy initial application to most fabrics. However, for the most secure and permanent attachment, especially on garments that will be frequently washed or endure heavy use, sew-on installation is highly recommended. This ensures your Costa Rica flag badge remains firmly in place for years to come.

Whether you’re a traveller, a collector, or simply a proud citizen, our national flag patches are the perfect way to express yourself.
