The Oregon legislature enacted a law in 1953 requiring that the state flag be flown over schools, courthouses, and other public buildings. In 1962, the state’s procurement office issued detailed specifications for the flag, which were amended in 1966. The flag’s official proportions (height to width) are 500:833; in practice, flags are usually made in proportions of 3:5 or 2:3.

The design was based on Oregon's nineteenth-century military flag, a standard regimental flag with the state seal’s escutcheon on a nearly-square blue field. The military flag, which followed standard U.S. Army specifications for size and proportions, represented Oregon’s militia (now the Oregon National Guard). The new state flag had different proportions and placed the beaver on the back.

In 2008–2009, the Oregonian created a contest to update the state flag. While ultimately unsuccessful in changing the design—the governor and the legislature had no interest in changing the flag—the contest generated 2,500 entries. In one unforeseen result of the contest publicity, the original 1925 flag—once thought lost in the 1935 fire that destroyed the state capitol—was found framed in a stairwell in Pierce Library at Eastern Oregon University in La Grande. Gov. Pierce’s grandson had donated the flag to the library dedicated in honor of his grandfather in 1954. The flag is now prominently displayed there.
