Wildland Fire District Patch — Order This Axe & Pine Design
Design S1460A at a glance
A tan-merrowed custom cut in green, tan, red and light blue, with an axe surrounded by water splashes and a pine tree rising at the top. Lettering carries the district name, a fire district line, an established-year line and a wildland unit line — a layout that tells the story of the job in one image: forest, water and the tool that cuts line.

About this axe and pine wildland district design
Wildland patches are at their best when they show the work, and this one does: the axe for cutting line, light blue splashes for water drops and suppression, and a pine for the ground being protected. The tan and green palette matches brush shirts and forest-green pants, while the red keeps a fire-service accent.
Design your own version: letter it with your district and unit, redraw the pine as the tree species of your region, or swap the axe for a Pulaski if that is your crew’s tool of choice. 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.

Wildland fire district patch questions
Can the axe change to a Pulaski?
Yes. We redraw the tool as a Pulaski, McLeod or shovel at no art charge, and the water splashes stay in place.
Can the pine be a different tree species?
Yes. Spruce, fir, oak or juniper can replace it so the patch matches your region.
Will this work on a yellow brush shirt?
Yes. Tan and green contrast well against yellow Nomex, and the tan merrowed edge blends cleanly.
Can we add a crew number?
Yes. We can add it to the wildland unit line or set it in its own small panel.
What is the best way to request changes?
Use the markup tool in the quote form: draw on the axe or tree, pin notes and pick colors. Your marked design rides along with the quote.
