Texas Revolution Flag Patch — "Come and Take It" Embroidered Flag Patch
Come and take it — the defiant battle cry of Texas independence.
The Texas Revolution Flag, most famously associated with the "Come and Take It" banner, is one of the most iconic symbols of American independence and frontier defiance. The original flag was flown by Texian settlers at the Battle of Gonzales on October 2, 1835 — the first military engagement of the Texas Revolution. When Mexican forces demanded the return of a small cannon that had been given to the colonists for defense against Native raids, the Texians raised a white banner featuring a lone star, the image of the cannon, and the words "COME AND TAKE IT," daring the Mexican army to try.
That bold act of defiance sparked the Texas Revolution, which ultimately led to the establishment of the Republic of Texas and later Texas statehood. The "Come and Take It" flag has since become a universal symbol of resistance, self-reliance, and the refusal to surrender one's rights. It resonates deeply with military service members, Second Amendment advocates, and anyone who values the spirit of standing firm in the face of overwhelming odds.
Perfect For: Texas history enthusiasts, military service members, Second Amendment supporters, flag collectors, morale patch fans, and anyone who embraces the defiant spirit of the Lone Star State.
Come and take it — if you dare.
