Style SD1-A2 at a glance
A square-proportioned shield in deep red with a notched, wavy top edge and a matching red merrowed border. Gold lettering arcs over the top of a round seal and curves back under it, with a small gold star at each side marking where the two arcs meet. The seal is a full-color state seal inside a navy ring, and a short gold line sits at the point of the shield.

About the red shield state seal security patch
Red is rare among security uniforms, which is exactly why some teams choose it: a red sleeve patch is easy to spot in a crowd, at an event gate or in a busy lobby. The gold lettering reads clearly against the red, and wrapping the text around the seal keeps the whole design compact enough for the smaller sizes.
The upper and lower arcs each hold up to 40 characters, which leaves room for a company name above and a job title below, while the bottom line suits a post or unit number. Edit them in the TruePatch Designer or send them with a quote request; your stitch-ready proof arrives 6–12 hours after you order and waits for your approval.

Red shield security patch questions
Can the bottom line show an officer or post number?
Yes. The bottom line holds up to 30 characters, enough for a badge number, post name or short title. Different numbers can go on one order.
Does the lettering have to follow the circle?
On this style the two main lines are set as arcs around the seal. If you want straight lines instead, mention it in a quote request and we can adjust the mockup.
How much does this patch cost?
$3.00 to $20.00 each depending on quantity, minimum 10 pieces, no setup, digitizing or art fees.
How fast can I get it?
7–10 days on rush production, with a free mockup in under 4 hours after you request a quote.
We need several post numbers — is each one a separate minimum?
No. All versions of this patch go on one quote and are priced at the combined count, so ten patches split across several numbers meets the minimum.
