Design S1559A at a glance
A custom-cut patch with a brown merrowed edge, built around an eagle with its wings spread wide over an open book and a police badge. Five thread colors — navy, tan, gold, white and brown — give the feathers and badge real depth. Lettering names the district, the law enforcement academy and its founding year, making it a natural cadet and instructor patch.

About this eagle, open book and badge academy design
An academy patch has to say two things at once: this is a school, and this is law enforcement. The open book handles the first, the police badge the second, and the eagle spreading its wings over both ties them together. It is a strong design for cadets, who wear it through training, and for instructors, who wear it class after class.
Customize it before you order: letter it with your academy and district, add your founding year, put your class number on a lower tab, or redraw the badge as your department's actual shield. 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.

Law enforcement academy eagle patch questions
Can we add a class number to each order?
Yes. A class number tab sits below the book, and each class can reorder with its own number while the rest of the design stays the same.
Can the badge match our department shield?
Yes. Send a photo of your badge and we redraw it under the eagle at no art charge. The mockup shows the redraw before production.
Is there a graduation version?
Yes. Metallic gold on the eagle and badge with a gold border makes a dress version for graduation. Order it alongside the cadet run.
What backing do cadets need?
Sew-on for uniforms and iron-on for PT shirts and caps are the usual mix. Instructors often add hook-side velcro for jackets.
How do I mark changes on this academy patch?
Use the markup tool in the quote form: circle the eagle, book or badge, pin numbered notes and try colorways. Your marked version is sent with the quote.
