Description
This embroidered patch features the Los Angeles County Fire Department insignia, the shoulder patch of LACoFD, the fire department serving the unincorporated areas and many cities of Los Angeles County, California. It is built as a rounded, fan-shaped patch on a navy blue twill ground, finished with a double border – gold on the outside, red within – with a firefighter helmet and gold star worked at the center.
Center: The dominant element is a cream-white leather firefighter helmet, the traditional fire-service helmet with its long rear brim and front shield, set at an angle over a red circular disc. A gold five-point star with a central circle overlaps the lower left of the disc. The helmet and star are the focal point, set against the navy field and framed by the red ring.
Top Section: COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES arches across the top of the patch in white block letters, following the rounded upper edge against the navy ground.
Bottom Section: FIRE DEPT. runs across the lower patch in white block letters, balancing the county lettering above and naming the department. Small gold diamond accents sit at the left and right of the center, flanking the helmet emblem.
Shape & Base: Rather than a pointed shield, the patch is a rounded fan or dome shape – a broad curved top tapering gently toward the base – on a navy blue twill ground, edged with a bright gold outer border and a red inner border. The navy field gives the design strong contrast, making the white lettering, the cream helmet, the red disc, and the gold star stand out sharply.
Embroidery Quality: Full-coverage stitching with high stitch density holds the fine detail of the leather firefighter helmet, the red disc, the gold five-point star, the diamond accents, and the arched COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES and FIRE DEPT. lettering with sharp, even edges and a durable surface that stands up to daily uniform wear and laundering.
This is one of a series of fire department patches in the gallery. Compare it with the New York City Fire Department patch, the Houston Fire Department patch, and the Chicago Fire Department patch, and browse the full Owl Badges Design Gallery for more custom fire and public-safety patch designs.

🛡 Authorized Purchase & Credential Verification
Patches bearing a real agency or department name are sold only to that agency or its authorized representatives. Law enforcement and public-safety buyers must provide proof of occupation, valid credentials, or an authorized purchasing letter before production begins. We do not sell agency-named patches for personal use.
Custom and fictional designs — for example, a made-up department like “Town of Western Hope Police” — are welcome, as are designs where you change the agency or department name to your own.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is shown on the Los Angeles County Fire Department patch?
The patch is a rounded, fan-shaped navy patch with a gold outer border and a red inner border. COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES arches across the top and FIRE DEPT. runs across the bottom, both in white block letters. At the center, a cream leather firefighter helmet sits at an angle over a red disc, with a gold five-point star overlapping the lower left. Owl Badges reproduces it as an embroidered shoulder patch.
What does the helmet and star on the LA County Fire patch represent?
The cream-white leather helmet is the traditional firefighter helmet, the universal symbol of the fire service, and the gold five-point star is a mark of public-safety authority. Together over the red disc they form the central emblem of the Los Angeles County Fire Department. We reproduce the helmet, the disc, and the star in detailed stitching so each stays clear at patch size.
Does this patch cover all of Los Angeles County?
The Los Angeles County Fire Department serves the unincorporated areas of Los Angeles County, California, along with many contract cities within the county. The COUNTY OF LOS ANGELES lettering on the patch marks it as the county fire agency, distinct from individual city fire departments. We reproduce the county name exactly as it appears on the original.
Is this the same as the LA County Sheriff patch?
No. This is the Los Angeles County Fire Department patch, with a firefighter helmet and FIRE DEPT. lettering, which is a separate agency from the Los Angeles County Sheriff. The fire patch centers on the leather helmet and star emblem, while a sheriff patch would carry different insignia. We can reproduce either as its own distinct embroidered patch.
Can you make a custom county fire department patch like this?
Yes. A fan-shaped navy patch with a firefighter helmet, a star, and arched county lettering is a classic fire-service layout, and we can adapt it for your own department - your county or district name, your emblem or helmet style, your star or seal, and your colors. A free proof is provided before production so you can confirm every detail.
Do I need credentials to order a patch with the LA County Fire Department name on it?
Yes. Patches bearing a real agency name such as the Los Angeles County Fire Department are sold only to that agency or its authorized representatives. Fire-service and public-safety buyers provide proof of occupation, valid credentials, or an authorized purchasing letter before production begins. Custom or fictional department designs, and patches renamed to your own department, are welcome without that step.
