Description
This metal badge features the Gladewater Police Department insignia, serving the city of Gladewater, Texas, which straddles Gregg and Upshur counties in the East Texas oil country west of Longview. It is a two-tone oval badge pairing gold banners and a gold star against a silver oval struck with the outline of Texas.
Shape & Base: The badge is die-struck as an upright silver oval with sunburst rays fanning across the field and a silver Texas state map worked into the background behind the center assembly, its edges reading in shallow relief.
Center: A gold five-point star anchors the oval, carrying black lettering across its arms — CITY OF arcing above and GLADEWATER below — around a round State of Texas seal in enamel: a dark blue band reading THE STATE OF and TEXAS in white, enclosing a light blue field where a white five-point star sits in a gold laurel wreath.
Flags: The United States flag angles outward on the left and the Texas flag on the right, both in full red, white and blue enamel, rising from behind the star’s lower arms.
Banner Lettering: A large gold banner arcs across the crown with POLICE OFFICER in black-filled capitals and folded tails at each side. Below the star, a wide gold banner carries POLICE, and a small gold plate with scrolled ends at the base reads TX.
Rank & Finish Quality: The POLICE OFFICER banner takes any rank. Enamel is confined to the seal and the two flags, with gold and silver carrying everything else. Every element is die-struck for crisp relief, from the map outline to the star’s lettering, then plated in two-tone gold and silver and sealed for daily duty wear. For another design from the same county, see the Gilmer Police badge.

🛡 Authorized Purchase & Credential Verification
Badges bearing a real agency or department name are sold only to that agency or its authorized representatives. Law enforcement and public-safety buyers must provide proof of occupation, valid credentials, or an authorized purchasing letter before production begins. We do not sell agency-named badges for personal use.
Custom and fictional designs — for example, a made-up department like “Town of Western Hope Police” — are welcome, as are designs where you change the agency or department name to your own.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I order a badge with a state map background like this Gladewater design?
Yes. This Gladewater Police badge strikes the outline of Texas into the silver field behind its center star, a subtle shallow-relief backdrop rather than a foreground element. That map can be reproduced or replaced with your own state outline, and it can be left tonal as shown or filled with enamel.
Can you change the star lettering and rank banner on this badge?
Yes. This design is a starting point. CITY OF and GLADEWATER are struck across the star’s arms and take your own city and agency wording, the POLICE OFFICER banner takes any rank, and the POLICE banner and TX base plate can be reworded. You receive a free proof before any tooling or production begins.
Can you change the seal or the flags on this badge?
Yes. The blue State of Texas seal can be swapped for your own state or municipal seal, and the flag pair can be changed to your own state flag beside the national flag, or dropped entirely for a cleaner center. Our artwork team proofs the change with you before tooling.
What is the minimum order for a custom metal badge like this?
Metal badges carry a low minimum order, and per-piece pricing drops as quantity rises. Small runs are welcome for a department the size of Gladewater’s, a specialty unit, or replacement badges, with sharper pricing at larger quantities.
How much does a custom two-tone metal badge like this cost?
Estimated pricing ranges from about $150 each at low quantities down to roughly $50 each at higher volumes. There is no setup fee and no mold fee. Two-tone plating is included in the quote, which depends on the size, plating, and quantity, and is confirmed free of charge.
Do I need credentials to order a Gladewater Police badge?
Yes. Metal badges bearing a real agency name such as the Gladewater Police Department are sold only to that agency or its authorized representatives. Public-safety buyers provide proof of occupation, valid credentials, or an authorized purchasing letter before production. Custom or renamed designs for your own department are welcome without that step.
