The flag of Konosu City, Saitama Prefecture, was changed by City Notice No. 146 on April 1, 2021. The new city flag is a white flag with the city emblem depicted in the center. The city emblem uses the city's English initial “K” as its motif. The green shape on the left represents nature, green plants, and the zelkova tree growing vigorously. The sky-blue shape on the right depicts a soaring stork, symbolizing leaps forward. The pink circle in the center represents a pansy, and the entire design expresses an elegant hina doll which is ornamental doll displayed in Japan for the Girls' Festival (Hinamatsuri) on March 3rd to pray for the health, growth, and good fortune of young girls.

The design combines the kanji character for “upper” (上) with two katakana characters for “ki” (キ) to symbolize town-building efforts by the government and residents.

The design incorporates the kanji character for “river” (川) and the hiragana character “sa” (さ). The lower right section depicts three rivers and represents the three districts of Kusu, Hirota, and Kyowa, while the circle symbolizes harmony among the districts. The town’s name is written in white kanji characters at hoist.
