How to Request Custom Police Department Patches

Custom patches for police departments carry more weight than a standard order — a department seal, badge design, or unit patch represents something official, and accuracy matters. Here’s how the process actually works, based on real department orders we’ve produced.

What We’ve Produced

We’ve completed department logo patches for law enforcement, including a 5″ embroidered patch reproducing the City of Atlanta Police Department’s official logo. The order was placed directly by a department officer, who provided clear, specific instructions and feedback throughout — which is exactly what makes an official insignia order go smoothly.

What Makes These Orders Go Smoothly

The single biggest factor in producing an accurate department patch is clear, detailed instruction upfront — the exact colors, the precise logo or seal artwork, and any specific placement or sizing requirements. The more specific the direction, the more accurately we can reproduce an official design on the first mock-up, which saves time on revisions.

Requesting a Patch for Your Department

The process works the same as any other custom order, with the same free digital mock-up and physical sample approval steps:

Send us your department’s official logo, seal, or badge artwork, along with exact color specifications if you have them
Specify the size and quantity you need — a single design for a unit or a full department-wide order
We provide a free digital mock-up within 24 hours for review and approval
Once approved, we produce a physical sample and share photos before moving to bulk production

There’s no minimum order — whether you need patches for a single unit or an entire department, the process is the same.

Design Accuracy Matters

Official department insignia typically needs to match exact colors and proportions — this isn’t the place for creative interpretation. If you have official brand guidelines, style guides, or existing patch samples, sharing those upfront helps us match your department’s design precisely from the first mock-up.

Q: Do you need special authorization to produce a police department's official logo or badge?

A: For copyrighted or official department insignia, we generally ask for some form of verification — typically a request through an official department email or payment, or written confirmation that the order is authorized. We're flexible about exactly how that's provided, and it's rarely a complicated step, but it helps ensure official department artwork is being reproduced with proper authorization.

Q: Is there a minimum order for police department patches?

A: No — whether you need patches for a single unit or an entire department, there's no minimum order.

Q: How accurate can you get an official department logo or seal?

A: Very accurate, when you provide clear source artwork and exact color specifications. We've reproduced official department logos, including for the City of Atlanta Police Department, with department feedback guiding the process to a precise match.

Q: What's the process for ordering department patches?

A: Send us your official artwork and specs, receive a free digital mock-up within 24 hours, approve a physical sample, then we move to production — no minimum order either way.
