I have been searching for a certain Xavier flag that I have seen flying from houses over the years. It is a very simple flag - navy blue all throughout with a large white roman numeral style "X" in block lettering across it. No silver or other colors, and no frills (sword etc.).

I have searched the Internet near and far and have never been able to locate the vendor who makes this flag. Anybody happen to know the vendor/where this flag can be purchased?

I have checked every image search site there is as well as flag shops and haven't seen it. I am starting to wonder if they were custom made or were made before e-commerce became commonplace.

They don't have any on their website, but you could try calling Flaggs USA in Oakley to see what X flags they have in stock. http://www.flaggsusaohio.com/contact_us/

I haven't seen one of those in years. Sold them in the bookstore my Freshman year (96).

Sounds like the ones that asshole Schiess used to give out to freshman. Only those were royal and not navy.

We have this flag. It's flying proudly out front right now. We bought it at the bookstore several years ago. It's looking a little worse for wear, but I'm pretty sure they still have them.

I have one of those, but can't tell you where I got it. I think in a flag store in Oakley. It has flown during conference season for many years.
This year (since it was a little threadbare) I ended up getting one with the sword on the bottom...looks OK.

Here's the old one flying (with one granddaughter playing) from a few years back:

Here's the same flag in the snow:

But, not to leave you hanging, here's one to get. Only drawback is grommets, not sleeve for pole.

Here's one with a sleeve.
