Description
This embroidered patch features the Miami-Dade Police Department insignia, the shoulder patch of the department serving Miami-Dade County, Florida. It is built as a keystone shield finished with a gold merrowed border and a brown lettered band, with the Florida state seal scene worked in full color at the center.
Center: The dominant element is the Great Seal of Florida scene, embroidered in full color. A Seminole woman in a red dress stands at the left scattering flowers, a tall sabal palm rises beside her, a steamboat sits on the water, and the sun lifts on the horizon with golden rays fanning across a blue sky, all over green land with a palmetto in the foreground. It is the most pictorial center in the series.
Top Section: DADE COUNTY, FLORIDA arches across the top of the brown band in gold block letters, following the peaked crown of the shield.
Band Lettering: MIAMI-DADE POLICE DEPARTMENT wraps down and around the brown band in gold, naming the agency around the central seal.
Shape & Base: The patch is a keystone shield – a peaked crown over rounded shoulders tapering to a rounded base – edged with a gold merrowed border, with a gold scrollwork flourish at the bottom point. The brown band frames the colorful seal and carries the gold lettering for a clean, uniform-ready outline.
Embroidery Quality: Full-coverage stitching with high stitch density holds the detailed seal figures, the palm and steamboat, the radiating sun, and the curved gold 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 police department patches in the gallery. Compare it with other major-agency designs, the New York City Police Department patch, the Washington DC Metropolitan Police Department patch, and the Houston Police Department patch.

🛡 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 Miami-Dade Police Department patch?
The patch is a keystone shield with a gold border and a brown lettered band. DADE COUNTY, FLORIDA arches across the top and MIAMI-DADE POLICE DEPARTMENT wraps around the band, both in gold. At the center is the full-color Florida state seal scene - a Seminole woman scattering flowers, a sabal palm, a steamboat, and a rising sun with golden rays. Owl Badges reproduces it as an embroidered shoulder patch.
What is the scene in the center of the Miami-Dade Police patch?
It is the Great Seal of Florida. The scene shows a Seminole woman in a red dress scattering flowers, a tall sabal palm (the state tree), a steamboat on the water, and the sun rising with radiating rays over green land. The Miami-Dade Police Department uses this state imagery at the heart of its insignia, and we reproduce it in full color.
Why does the patch say both Dade County and Miami-Dade?
The brown band carries DADE COUNTY, FLORIDA across the top and MIAMI-DADE POLICE DEPARTMENT around the band, reflecting the agency name and the county it serves. We reproduce both lines exactly as lettered so the patch stays true to the department insignia.
Can you build a custom patch with a full-color seal scene like this?
Yes. A keystone shield with a lettered band around a detailed full-color seal or scene is a classic agency layout, and we can adapt it for your own department - your county or state seal in the center and your agency name around the band. A free proof is provided before production so you can confirm every color and detail.
What size is the Miami-Dade Police Department shoulder patch?
Shoulder patches like this are typically made in the 4 to 5 inch range so the curved lettering and the detailed seal scene stay legible on a uniform sleeve. Because the seal carries many fine figures and colors, we confirm the proportions at your chosen size on the free proof so everything stays crisp.
Do I need credentials to order a patch with the Miami-Dade Police Department name on it?
Yes. Patches bearing a real agency name such as the Miami-Dade Police Department are sold only to that agency or its authorized representatives. Law enforcement 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.
