Scorpion Sheriff Patch — Order This Saguaro Cactus Oval Design
Design S1557A at a glance
A tan and brown oval with a brown merrowed edge, built around a scorpion in the foreground with saguaro cacti rising behind it. The two-tone palette makes it effectively subdued and very much at home in dry, sunbaked country. Lettering around the oval names the sheriff's department, its founding year, a short motto and a unit line.

About this scorpion and saguaro oval
A scorpion is small, patient and dangerous to underestimate — a fitting mascot for deputies who cover huge stretches of arid backcountry. Set in front of saguaro cacti, it tells you exactly where the office works. The two-tone tan and brown build looks like a subdued tactical patch, so the design sits naturally on khaki uniforms while still carrying a strong regional identity.
Customize it before production: letter it with your office, founding year and unit, swap the motto for your own, or add a sheriff star behind the cacti for a more formal version. 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.

Scorpion sheriff patch questions
Can we add a sheriff star to this oval?
