About this bear and scales sheriff star design
Plenty of sheriff stars lean on a single seal; this one tells a fuller story. The bear silhouette and pine forest speak to timber country and long backroad patrols, while the scales of justice keep the office's legal authority in the frame. Silver gray, green and gold is a muted, outdoorsy palette that sits comfortably on tan, green or khaki uniform shirts.
Order it as drawn or change what matters to your deputies: swap the motto words for your own, set your county and founding year in the lower lines, or trade the bear for an elk, cougar or your county seal. 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.

Sheriff scales of justice patch questions
Can the motto and county lines carry our own wording?
Yes. The motto line, the county and office name, and the established date all restitch to your exact text — your 4-hour mockup shows every line placed on the star.
Can the bear be swapped for another animal?
Yes. An elk, cougar, wolf or your county seal can take the bear's place, redrawn stitch-ready at no art charge and shown on your proof before production.
Will the forest detail hold up on a small patch?
At 4 inches and up the individual pines stay distinct. Below that we simplify the tree line slightly on your proof so the stitching stays clean, and you approve it first.
What backing do deputies usually choose?
Sew-on is the standard for uniform shirts. Hook-side velcro suits patrol jackets and vests, and iron-on works for caps — you can split backings within one order.
How do I request changes to this design?
Use the "mark up this design" tool in the quote form: circle the bear, pin notes on the lettering, switch colorways. The marked-up version attaches to your quote automatically.
