Flag of Kortrijk (Belgium) Hoodie - Design Overview
This hoodie showcases the striking design of the flag of Kortrijk, a Belgian city steeped in history. The artwork on this garment beautifully replicates the official flag, a symbol of civic pride and heritage.
The Design: A Visual Symphony
The foundation of the design is a crisp, clean white field. This pristine canvas is then enlivened by a bold red engrailed border that gracefully wraps around the entire perimeter. The engrailed edge, characterized by a series of semi-circular indentations, adds a unique and dynamic visual texture to the artwork.
At the heart of the design, a powerful red chevron takes center stage. This upward-pointing element meets the upper border, creating a visually compelling focal point that captures the eye and commands attention. The use of red and white, colors deeply rooted in heraldic traditions, further emphasizes the historical significance of the design.
Symbolism and Meaning
The design is a direct translation of the municipal coat of arms. The white field (Argent) signifies purity and clarity, while the red (Gules) represents courage, valor, and strength. The chevron is a traditional heraldic symbol often associated with protection and defense.
The engrailed border adds another layer of meaning, representing a fortified edge or a historical connection to defensive structures. This intricate design, officially recognized in 1987, serves as a powerful emblem of Kortrijk's identity and its enduring legacy.
