Japan Rising Sun Flag Patch by OUTBOUND

Japanese Rising Sun embroidered sew on patch

The Rising Sun Flag symbolizes the sun as the Japanese national flag does with 16 rays emanating from the sun disk.  

The design is similar to the flag of Japan, which has a red circle in the centre signifying the Sun. The difference compared to the flag of Japan is that the Rising Sun Flag has extra sun rays (16 for the ensign) exemplifying the name of Japan as "The Land of the Rising Sun".

The design of the Rising Sun Flag is seen in numerous scenes in daily life of Japan, such as in fishermen's banners hoisted to signify large catches of fish, flags to celebrate childbirth, and in flags for seasonal festivities.
