Description
This embroidered patch features the North Carolina Department of Correction insignia on a blue shield with a gold merrow border, divided into bands by gold lines. N.C. DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTION is arched in gold across the top, with DIVISION OF PRISONS in a center band and SERVICE and PROTECTION across the bottom corners. The scales of justice sit at the top of the shield, and the lower section shows a figure beside the outline of the state of North Carolina, all in gold against blue. Produced in full-coverage embroidery on polyester twill, it holds the fine detail of the scales, figure, and state outline cleanly. Order it as shown for the North Carolina Department of Correction, or customize the colors, lettering, border, and emblem 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 North Carolina Department of Correction patch?
The patch is a blue shield with a gold border. N.C. DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTION arches across the top, DIVISION OF PRISONS runs in a center band, and SERVICE and PROTECTION sit at the bottom corners. The scales of justice appear at the top and a figure beside the North Carolina state outline at the bottom.
What do the scales and the figure on the patch represent?
The scales of justice stand for fairness and the rule of law. The figure beside the state outline represents the corrections officer's role within North Carolina, tied to the SERVICE and PROTECTION wording on the patch.
Why does the patch say Department of Correction and Division of Prisons?
This is the historic insignia of the North Carolina Department of Correction, with its Division of Prisons named on the patch. The wording is reproduced exactly as it appears on the original emblem.
Can you make a custom shield patch like this for our agency?
Yes. A shield with banded lettering, a central emblem, and a state outline is a flexible template. Our artwork team can swap the emblem, 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 North Carolina Department of Correction name on it?
Yes. Patches bearing a real agency name such as the North Carolina Department of Correction 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.
