Description
This embroidered patch features the Louisiana Department of Corrections name on a black field cut to the shape of the state of Louisiana, with a white merrow border. LOUISIANA, DEPT., and CORRECTIONS are stacked in bold white lettering across the patch, with EST. 1856 tucked into the lower corner. The clean two-color design relies on the distinctive state outline and strong lettering rather than a central emblem. Produced in full-coverage embroidery on polyester twill, it holds the crisp edges of the state shape and lettering cleanly. Order it as shown for the Louisiana Department of Corrections, or customize the colors, lettering, border, and shape for your own agency. There is no setup fee and no minimum-quantity barrier.

🛡 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 Louisiana Department of Corrections patch?
The patch is cut to the shape of the state of Louisiana on a black field with a white border. LOUISIANA, DEPT., and CORRECTIONS are stacked in bold white lettering, with EST. 1856 in the lower corner. It is a clean text-and-shape design with no central emblem.
Why is the patch shaped like the state of Louisiana?
Cutting the patch to the state outline ties it directly to Louisiana, making it instantly recognizable as a Louisiana agency emblem. State-shaped patches are a popular format for corrections and law-enforcement agencies that want a strong state identity.
What does EST. 1856 mean on the patch?
EST. 1856 marks the founding date associated with the Louisiana state penitentiary system, the origin of the state's organized corrections. It appears on the patch as a nod to that long history.
Can you make a custom state-shaped patch like this for our agency?
Yes. A state-shaped patch with stacked lettering is a flexible template. Our artwork team can swap the state outline, name, colors, and border to match your department, with a free proof before production.
How much does a patch like this cost, and what is the minimum order?
Estimated pricing runs from about $17 each at 10 units down to roughly $2 each at 1,000 units, with no setup or mold fee. The minimum order starts as low as 10 pieces, so smaller runs for specialty units are welcome.
Do I need credentials to order a patch with the Louisiana Department of Corrections name on it?
Yes. Patches bearing a real agency name such as the Louisiana Department of Corrections are sold only to that agency or its authorized representatives. Corrections, law-enforcement, and public-safety buyers provide proof of occupation, valid credentials, or an authorized purchasing letter before production begins. Custom or renamed designs are welcome without that step.
