The flag of the state of Colima is, like most current Mexican state flags, the coat of arms centered on a white field.
The main symbol in the coat of arms is the prehispanic hieroglyph for an arm. Below the shield is a golden ribbon with the words "El TEMPLE DEL BRAZO ES VIGOR EN LA TIERRA", which roughly translates to "The arm's steadiness is strength on the land". Above the ribbon are two jaguars, a palm tree and the Volcán de Colima.

Blue and white here are meant to represent New Galicia, as the territory was originally part of that province. By MetamarioMX. 2014.

Named after Coliman, a warrior whose name loosely translates to 'the place of the fire god'. The disk represents fire, the hand represents power and the pattern is based on those of the region. By kyrgyzzephyr. 2014.
