City Police Department Patch — Order This Urban Skyline Round
Design S0618A at a glance
A round municipal design that sets a stitched city skyline inside a badge-shaped emblem, ringed by arched lettering in silver on navy. The skyline silhouette redraws to suggest your own downtown, and both text arcs restitch to your department and division wording — the layout metro and urban divisions pick when they want insignia that says city policing before you read a word.

About this urban skyline round design
The badge-within-a-circle layout is what makes this one work: the skyline sits on a badge silhouette, so the art reads as police insignia even from across a squad room. Navy and silver carry most of the stitching with black depth lines and gold accents, a four-color scheme that stays crisp from collar size up to jacket backs.
Order it as shown or make the skyline your own — we can redraw the building line from a photo of your actual downtown, swap navy for black, or set the ring text to your bureau and unit. This page shows a design concept we manufacture to order — your stitch-ready proof arrives 6–12 hours after you order, and nothing is produced until you approve it.

City police department patch questions
Can our own emblem replace the skyline badge emblem on this patch?
Yes. Send a photo, a scan of an existing patch, or a PDF and we redraw it stitch-ready at no art charge. Your proof shows the redrawn art before anything is produced.
What colors can this city police department patch be ordered in?
Any thread palette. Beyond the colorway shown, this art runs well in blackout, silver-on-navy or gold-accent schemes — preview each version in the markup tool and your quote references the one you picked.
What backing works for patrol uniforms?
Sew-on is the duty standard for shirts and remains the most durable through industrial laundering. Officers moving one set of patches between soft-shell and carrier kit order hook-side velcro instead.
Can the lettering carry our department's own wording?
Yes. The arched ring carries two separate text fields. Every text field restitches to your exact wording — name, unit number, or a motto.
How do I request changes to this design?
Use the "mark up this design" tool in the quote form: circle elements, pin numbered notes, switch colorways, and place your own emblem on the patch. Your marked-up version attaches to the quote automatically.
Looking past the city line?
Skylines are one way to say municipal — the police patch range beyond this urban skyline round, from patrol shields to unit stars shows every shape we embroider. Comparing builds and backings first? Start with the patch ordering guide that puts the skyline round beside woven and PVC builds.
