About Sideflare

Sideflare (V): A maneuver that reduces high forward speed by sliding the aircraft sideways, increasing drag to slow down and position the aircraft precisely over the intended point. This technique is commonly used in VERTREP operations.

Who are we?

Sideflare was founded by active duty Naval Aviators who were tired of seeing the patch game outsourced overseas. We believe that if you're going to wear the American flag on your shoulder, it should darn well be made in America. So, we rolled up our sleeves and learned how to embroider and make t-shirts. Now, our San Diego, California warehouse is where the magic happens - we design, create, and ship your orders, all under one roof!

Our team is a mix of veterans, active duty personnel, and military spouses who understand the value of a well-crafted patch. We're committed to making everything in the USA, and we hold ourselves to the highest standards of safety and ethical business practices.

We're passionate about flying, shooting guns, pulling off epic sideflares, hanging with our pups, and lending a helping hand to those in need. Every month, we donate a portion of our proceeds to charities that support veterans, pups, and Gold Star families.
