About this eagle shield and batons investigation design
Detectives tend to prefer insignia that whispers, and a strict two-color scheme does that: navy and silver, nothing bright. The emblem layers three marks of the office — an eagle shield for authority, the sheriff's star for the badge, crossed batons for enforcement — into one compact center that stays legible on a small chest patch or a raid-jacket back alike.
Customize it before ordering: set your county and unit names in the lettering, change the motto and founding year, or add a magnifier or fingerprint to mark the investigative role. 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 criminal investigation patch questions
Can the lettering carry our county and unit names?
Yes. County sheriff name, founding year, motto and unit line all restitch to your wording, set in the proof before production.

Is there a subdued version?
Yes. Black and gray stitch from the same two-color art; preview the colorway in the markup tool.
What size works on a raid jacket?
Ten inches tall for the back; the four lettering lines open up and the batons get their finest detail.
