Description
This embroidered sergeant chevron for the New York Police Department sets three silver-grey stripes on a black field and edges each one in royal blue, a three-color design that reads clearly against a dark uniform.
Stripes: Three silver-grey stripes stack down from the pointed peak at matching angles, each stitched in a bright, even fill that stands out against the black.
Blue Outlines: A royal blue line borders the top and bottom of every stripe, adding a band of color between the silver and the black channels and giving the rank a sharper edge.
Shape & Base: The patch is cut to the outline of the stripes, with a pointed top and a notched base, in black twill with a black merrow edge that lets the silver and blue carry the design.
Embroidery Quality: Full-coverage embroidery on polyester twill keeps the silver-grey fill smooth and holds the thin royal blue outlines crisp at every angle. Order it as shown for the New York Police Department, or change the stripe, outline, and field colors to match the uniform in your own department.
For other sergeant chevron styles, see the Chicago Police grey and black sergeant chevron patch and the Chicago Police navy sergeant chevron 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.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is shown on the NYPD silver and blue sergeant chevron?
It is a black chevron patch with a black merrow border and three silver-grey stripes, each outlined in royal blue. The patch is cut to the shape of the stripes, with a pointed top and a notched base, and carries no lettering.
What does a sergeant do in the NYPD?
In the New York Police Department, sergeant is the first supervisory rank above police officer. Sergeants supervise officers on patrol and in specialized units, and sergeant chevrons are worn on the uniform sleeve to mark that rank.
Why use royal blue outlines on silver stripes?
The royal blue edge separates the silver stripes from the black field with a line of color, so the rank reads as three distinct bands instead of blending into the background. It adds contrast without the brightness of white outlines.
How is this chevron different from the Chicago Police sergeant chevrons?
All of them share the same three-stripe cut. This NYPD version uses silver-grey stripes with royal blue outlines on black, while the Chicago Police versions come in grey and black, navy with white outlines, and light blue with royal blue stripes.
Can I order this chevron in a different size or with a rocker?
Yes. We can scale the chevron for shirts or outerwear, add one or more rockers beneath the stripes, or change the thread colors, with a free proof before production.
Are credentials needed to buy this NYPD sergeant chevron?
Not for the design as shown, which carries only rank stripes and no department name. Any version that adds a real department name, such as the New York Police Department, is sold only to that department or its authorized buyers, with proof of occupation or an authorized purchasing letter.
