Historic Flag of Maine (1901–1909) Socks

The Original Mainer Look: The 1901-1909 Flag Socks Celebrate the Pine Tree State with a piece of stylish, yet forgotten, history! These socks feature the cherished Historic Flag of Maine flown between 1901 and 1909. Long before the current state seal design, Maine's original flag featured a clean, iconic design: a green pine tree—the classic symbol of Maine's rugged landscape and resilience—set against a buff (tan) field, accented by a lone blue North Star shining in the upper corner. Often considered a more authentic and visually pleasing representation of the state's identity, this design has seen a huge resurgence in popularity. These socks are a perfect way for any Mainer, history enthusiast, or New Englander to show off their pride in a unique and fashionable way. Wear the original "Vacationland" spirit on your feet!
