About the inverted triangle navy police patch
The inverted triangle is an uncommon outline for a police shoulder patch, which makes it easy to recognize on a sleeve across a crowded scene. Three equal lettering sides give the wording balance, and the gold inner triangle echoes the outer edge so the seal looks framed rather than floating. Navy and gold is a traditional law enforcement pairing that holds up on navy, black and tan uniforms.
All three sides take up to 40 characters, so an agency name, a title and a location each get a full line. Enter them in the TruePatch Designer to preview the fit, or include them in a quote request and our art staff sets them for you. The stitch-ready proof is sent 6–12 hours after ordering, and production starts only with your approval.

Inverted triangle police patch questions
What is a twill background patch?
Twill background means the navy field is the base fabric and only the lettering, border and seal are stitched. It keeps the patch thinner and lighter than 100% embroidered coverage.
Can the triangle point up instead of down?
Yes. The same layout can be stitched pointing up; mention it in the designer notes or your quote request and we adjust the artwork.
How much does an inverted triangle patch cost?
The price is $3.00 to $20.00 per embroidered patch depending on quantity, starting at 10 pieces, with no setup, digitizing or art fees.
What is the fastest delivery?
Rush production is 7–10 days. You get a free mockup within 4 hours of a quote request and a stitch-ready proof 6–12 hours after ordering.
Can the side lines read in the same direction?
Yes. Both side lines can run top to bottom or follow the edge in opposite directions as shown; the designer previews either arrangement.
