Campus Police Octagon Patch — Order This Monogram Shield and Handcuffs Design
Design S1805A at a glance
An eight-sided patch with a silver merrowed edge, built around a shield carrying a two-letter monogram, a pine tree and a pair of handcuffs. The lettering holds the school name, a founding year and the campus police line. Charcoal and silver keep it formal, while orange adds a school-color spark that most department patches don't have.

About this monogram shield campus police octagon
Private schools and smaller colleges often build police insignia around the institution's monogram rather than a city-style seal, and this octagon does exactly that. The monogram shield anchors the center, the pine nods to the campus setting, and the handcuffs make the law enforcement role plain. The octagon is a long-standing police cut, so the patch reads as official while still carrying school identity.
Swap in your own initials, replace the pine with your campus landmark or mascot, and change the orange to your school color. 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.

Yes. The two-letter monogram restitches to your initials in block, serif or script lettering, and the mockup shows it inside the shield.
Can the orange match our exact school color?
Yes. Send your school's color reference and we match the closest thread; the proof shows the color in place before production.
Is the handcuff detail optional?
Yes. Replace it with scales, a torch, a book or nothing at all. Artwork changes carry no extra art charge.
What size octagon should a campus department order?
3.5" to 4" across is standard for shoulder wear; 3" works on caps and polos.
