Sheriff Response Unit Patch — Order This Elk & Lantern Shield
Design S0628A at a glance
A two-color shield that proves restraint can carry a scene: a bugling elk over a mountain line, a lantern for the searchers and a star for the office, all in gold on navy. Emergency-response units pick it because the lantern says what they do — go out at night and find people — and every banner restitches to your county's wording.

About this elk and lantern shield design
Two-thread designs survive everything — small sizes, subdued conversions, decades of restocks — and this shield shows why offices keep choosing them. The bugling elk gives it regional backbone while the lantern beneath carries the response-unit meaning, a pairing that needs no third color to stay legible across a staging area.
Order it in the navy-gold shown or inverted gold-field trim, with your county arc, unit banner and motto stitched in place of the originals. 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 response unit patch questions
Can our own emblem replace the bugling elk on this patch?
Yes. Send a photo, a scan of an existing patch, or a PDF and we redraw it stitch-ready at no art charge. Your proof shows the redrawn art before anything is produced.
What colors can this sheriff response unit patch be ordered in?
Any thread palette. Beyond the colorway shown, this art runs well in blackout, OD green or silver-on-navy schemes — preview each version in the markup tool and your quote references the one you picked.
What backing for callout jackets?
Sew-on for jackets that live in gear bags — it will not peel in heat or cold. Velcro suits members who move one set between duty wear and callout kit.
Can the lettering carry our department's own wording?
Yes. County arc, unit banner and motto line are separate fields. Every text field restitches to your exact wording — name, unit number, or a motto.
How do I request changes to this design?
Use the "mark up this design" tool in the quote form: circle elements, pin numbered notes, switch colorways, and place your own emblem on the patch. Your marked-up version attaches to the quote automatically.
