Patches for every part of the uniform.
Department shoulder patch
The department's identity on every uniform. A design that faces one way is made as a mirrored pair, one for each sleeve.
Sheriff's office patches
Sheriff and deputy shoulder patches with the county name, built from your office's design.
K9 and specialty units
K9, SWAT, traffic and motor, dive and honor guard patches, usually a smaller run than the shoulder patch.
Vest and carrier patches
Unit and ID patches for duty vests and plate carriers, with velcro backing so they can be swapped.
Name tapes
Officer names on one approved layout, ordered alongside the department patch.
Awareness and fundraiser patches
Pink patches, autism awareness patches and other charity designs that departments sell for a cause.

Built to come off and go back on.
Patches on a duty vest or plate carrier attach with velcro, so they move between carriers and come off for cleaning. Both sides of the velcro are included.
Embroidered
The traditional uniform look, with raised thread and a stitched edge. Sew-on for dress and duty uniforms.
Woven
Holds the fine lettering in a seal or motto ring that embroidery would close up.
PVC
Waterproof molded rubber that wipes clean, the common choice for carriers. Velcro or sew-on, never iron-on.

New officers, same patch design.
Uniform orders come back every year as officers join and uniforms wear out. When you approve your Production Proof, we save the design with its Pantone codes and dimensions, so the next order starts from your approved design instead of from scratch.

PANTHER PATCH is a factory-direct manufacturer. We are not an approved, authorized or contracted supplier to any department, agency or government body, and we make no claim to be. Uniform standards, insignia approval and purchasing rules are yours to set. We make the patch to the specification you approve, and we do not make insignia designed to impersonate a department you are not part of.
Police patch questions, answered.
Do you make patches for sheriff's offices?+
Yes. Sheriff's office and deputy patches are made the same way as police department patches. Send your current patch or artwork, and your Digital Mockup shows the colors as Pantone codes and the exact dimensions before we make one physical Production Proof.
What backing should vest and plate carrier patches have?+
Velcro (hook and loop), so the patch can come off the loop panel and go back on. Both sides are included, for $0.55 more per patch. PVC is worth considering for carriers because it is waterproof and wipes clean. Iron-on is not offered on PVC.
Can you match our current shoulder patch?+
Send a photo or a sample of the patch you wear now. We rebuild the artwork at no charge, show it on your Digital Mockup with Pantone codes, and make one physical Production Proof for you to compare. We make the rest only after you approve it.
Do you make awareness patches, like pink patches?+
Yes. Departments order pink patches for breast cancer awareness, autism awareness patches and other charity designs, often to sell for a cause. They are made and priced like any other patch, from 25 pieces per design.
What is the minimum order for police patches?+
25 pieces per design. At 50 pieces or more you reach our Best Value pricing, and the instant quote shows your exact price for any standard size and quantity.
Are you an approved vendor for our department?+
No. PANTHER PATCH is a factory-direct manufacturer, not an approved or authorized supplier to any department or agency. Purchasing rules, uniform standards and insignia approval are handled by your department. We make the patch to the specification you approve.
