Blazon: På blå grunn eit sølv sjøblad omgjeve av sølv bord laga med
taggesnitt. In English: Azure a sea-leaf within a tressure invected on the outer
edge and engrailed on the inner edge argent.
Approved by the royal resolution of 20 November 1987 after a drawing by Kari
Ruud Flem. [c2j88] (however, the legal source
on-line claims it was crown prince-regent's resolution instead, and we should
probably believe it)
On
http://www.kirkesok.no/kirker/Slidre-kyrkje it is said that the Slidredomen
(i.e. the Vestre Slidre church) on its north wall interior has a medieval
depiction of a coat of arms that is used [today] as the Vestre Slidre coat of
arms.
I am not sure if the tressure in the flag should not be rectangular following
the model of the Scottish flag, but we may not know exactly what was meant
without further sources.
