Club Social y Deportivo Colo-Colo, or simply Colo-Colo, is a professional football club headquartered in Macul, Santiago, Chile, playing in the Chilean Primera División (2023), the highest tier of the Chilean football league system. This unofficial Colo-Colo fan flag (Spanish: bandera no oficial de Colo-Colo) consists of the team's official logo and a white background derived from the team jersey.
The Colo-Colo logo is rich in historical and cultural symbolism. The navy blue shield prominently features an image of the Mapuche chieftain Colo Colo, a significant figure in Wall Mapu history known for his role in the Arauco War against Spanish colonization. This representation not only pays homage to the indigenous Mapuche people, highlighting the club's roots in Chilean heritage, but also embodies qualities of resilience and strength. The red stripe bearing the team name, "Colo Colo," further emphasizes the club's identity and heritage, serving as a visual representation of the pride and passion associated with this renowned Chilean football institution.
