Description
This Albany County embroidered patch was custom designed for the Albany County Sheriff’s Department Drug Interdiction Unit in New York, featuring a large centered green cannabis leaf overlaid with a bold red prohibition symbol on an olive green twill base to clearly communicate the narcotics enforcement mission of the unit.
Shape & Base: Traditional law enforcement shield with curved shoulders and a pointed bottom, built on an olive green twill base and finished with a clean black merrowed border that traces the full perimeter and frames the design with a subdued formal edge.
Top Section: “ALBANY COUNTY” arches across the top of the shield in bold black block lettering with “SHERIFFS DEPT” stitched directly beneath in matching black block letters on a slight curve, together establishing the full agency and jurisdiction identification across the upper portion of the patch.
Center: A large green cannabis leaf with seven detailed leaflets dominates the middle of the shield, stitched in multi-tonal green thread with fine vein detail across each leaflet. A bold red prohibition symbol consisting of a red ring with a diagonal slash crosses over the cannabis leaf, clearly marking the anti-narcotics mission of the unit and creating strong visual contrast against the olive base.
Bottom Section: “DRUG INTERDICTION UNIT” curves along the lower edge of the shield in bold black block lettering with “N.Y.” centered just above in matching black block letters, together completing the full unit identification and state designation across the bottom of the patch.
Embroidery Quality: Dense satin stitching delivers crisp edges on the black agency lettering and clean vein definition across the cannabis leaflets, while the green thread uses multi-tonal blending to create natural leaf depth and the red prohibition symbol shows sharp ring and slash definition. The black merrowed border is tight and uniform throughout, and the olive twill base provides muted contrast that lets the green leaf, red prohibition mark, and black lettering stand out clearly across the full shield silhouette.
This design represents premium custom embroidery honoring New York law enforcement tradition and the narcotics enforcement heritage of the Albany County Sheriff’s Department Drug Interdiction Unit.
