Tempe-based apparel brand Dixxon Flannel Co. recently announced its newest limited flannel line that honors and celebrates the 80th anniversary of the flag raisers of Iwo Jima.

Dixxon has dropped its “First to Fight” flannel, which is available now at www.dixxon.com. 

This flannel was created in remembrance of the six Marine Corps members who achieved fame as the flag raisers on Feb. 23, 1945, in the iconic World War II photograph taken on Mount Suribachi on Iwo Jima, a press release explained.

In the image, a local Arizona hero, the Gila River nation’s Ira Hayes, can be seen at the far left, his hands reaching up toward the flagpole. Three of the six men featured in the photo were killed in action shortly after the photo was taken. 

Inspired by the courage of the six flag raisers, Dixxon’s “First to Fight” flannel features a black, gold and red colorway, reminiscent of the designated colors of the Marine Corps, according to ther elease. 

A classic Dixxon removable sticker tag depicts the photograph of the brave flag raisers of Iwo Jima.
