A brown-edged keystone in brown, tan, cream and gold, with a horse head set before a sunrise over rolling hills and a chain border running around the scene.

About this mounted patrol horse keystone
Mounted units are a department's most photographed officers, and their patch should look the part. The horse head is the clear focal point, the sunrise over hills gives it open country to stand in, and the chain border adds a tack-room detail that riders notice. The keystone outline and the brown, tan, cream and gold palette keep the whole piece traditional and warm.
Order it as shown or adjust it: put your department name in the top line, rename the unit line for a horse patrol or equestrian team, or redraw the horse to match a breed or marking in your own stable. 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.

Mounted patrol horse patch questions
Can the horse look like one of our own mounts?
Yes. Send a clear side photo of the horse and we redraw the head, mane and markings into the sunrise scene at no art charge.
Can we order a large patch for saddle pads?
Yes. The same keystone scales to 8 or 10 inches for saddle pads and blankets, and you can quote it alongside the uniform size.
Will the chain border show at shoulder size?
From 3 inches wide up, the chain links read clearly. Smaller versions convert it to a simple rope line on the proof.
Can the lettering change to equestrian unit?
Yes. Both lines restitch to your wording — department name and unit designation — and the mockup shows them placed.
How do I mark up changes?
Open the markup tool in the quote form to circle the horse or hills, add numbered notes and try colorways. The marked design goes with the quote.
Need a different police unit design?
This page covers one mounted-unit keystone. For K9, traffic, marine and patrol layouts, the police unit patches that sit beside this horse-head sunrise keystone show every shape departments order.
