Sheriff Posse Patch — Order This Bear Head and Crossed Arrows Design
Design S1375A at a glance
A custom-cut patch edged in black, centered on a bear head set over crossed arrows, both resting on an arrowhead. Lettering fills out the rest: a name line, a posse designation line, a pair of single-letter initial panels and a founded-year line, worked in maroon, black, white and brown for an earthy, frontier-era look.

About this bear head and crossed arrows posse design
Sheriff's posses carry a frontier tradition, and this design leans into it without costume: a bear head for strength, crossed arrows for readiness, and an arrowhead beneath both as a nod to the country the posse covers. The maroon and brown palette is warmer than standard duty insignia, which suits a volunteer unit that wants its own identity alongside the office it supports.
Make it yours before it stitches: put your posse name and founding year in the lettering, set your own initials in the two letter panels, or trade the maroon for forest green or navy. 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 posse patch questions
What goes in the two single-letter panels?
Whatever initials your posse uses — office, county or unit letters. Each panel restitches independently, and the proof shows both placed before production.
Can the founded year and name line be changed?
Yes. The name line, the posse line and the founded-year line all restitch to your wording at no extra cost.
Can the bear be swapped for another animal?
Yes. Send a photo or sketch and we redraw a different animal head over the arrows and arrowhead at no art charge, or replace the whole emblem with your office star.
What size should we order for vest backs?
Ten to twelve inches wide. At that size the bear's fur, the arrow fletching and the initials all open up with full detail.
How do we send our edits?
Open the markup tool in the quote form, circle the bear or the letter panels, pin notes on each line and try a new colorway. Your marked-up copy rides along with the quote.
