Design S1206A at a glance

About this snowy peak and river chain-border design
Mountain towns tend to define themselves by the view, and this patch puts it front and center: a snowy peak with a river winding away below it. The chain border is the distinctive touch — linked rings around the scene suggest officers joined in common service, and it gives the patch a heavier, more official frame than a plain edge.
Build it around your landscape: redraw the peak as your own mountain, adjust the river's course, set your city in the name line, or swap the chain for a rope or plain border. 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.

Mountain river police patch questions
Can the mountain be redrawn as our local peak?
Yes. Send a photo of your mountain or skyline and we redraw the peak and river to match, stitch-ready, at no art charge.
Can the lettering show our city and department?
Yes. All three lines restitch to your wording — city name, police line and established year. Your free mockup shows the exact text within 4 hours.
Can the chain border be replaced?
Yes. A rope border, laurel ring or plain band can replace the chain; mark it in the quote form and the change appears on your proof.
What size keeps the chain links readable?
3.5" and larger keeps every link distinct. Below that we simplify the chain into a patterned band on the proof.
How do I mark up changes to this design?
Open the markup tool in the quote form, circle the peak or river, pin notes on each lettering line and switch colorways. The marked-up design attaches to your quote automatically.
