Tactical Patches & Emblems

Law enforcement, military personnel, and other public safety professionals adorn tactical patches and emblems on their uniforms and tactical gear for a multitude of reasons. Mainly, it’s used as a way to identify what department/unit they’re from along with their ranking/standing. These types of police patches, EMS patches, and military patches are typically affixed to the shoulder or chest of their uniform so that they are easily visible to others. 

There’s also an abundance of morale patches that can be seen on different types of gear such as body armor or tactical bags. The purpose behind this type of patch is to boost morale, express patriotism or show off a witty sense of humor.

Galls is proud to carry over 290 different types of embroidery patches and PVC patches from some of the industry’s most trusted brands. These brands include MILSPEC Monkey, Penn Emblem, Hero’s Pride, Nine Line, Maxpedition, and more.

Popular Tactical Patches & Emblems

Before purchasing a tactical patch/emblem, it’s important to consider how it should be affixed to the uniform. That’s why Galls provides plenty of backing options including iron-on patches, sew-on patches, velcro patches, and more.

Popular among law enforcement, the Hero’s Pride Standard Back Emblem is perfect for making their presence known. These jacket patches heighten the overall look of the police uniform while simultaneously portraying a professional appearance. The sharp lettering allows for a mark of distinction while the plastic backing helps maintain its shape over time. These law enforcement patches are also available in a variety of colors, and have different title options including “Police”, “Security” and “Sheriff”. 

The Penn Emblem American Flag Emblem enhances the uniform with the mark of patriotic distinction. This type of insignia is designed to go on the right sleeve but can be used elsewhere on the uniform. This American Flag patch is also made with a PennBond® industrial backing for iron-on or sew-on application. 

The Nine Line Thin Blue Line PVC Morale Patch represents the line between justice and corruption, between order and chaos. It’s the line between the love of the people and sometimes, their hatred. With this difficult and dangerous profession, these police morale patches honor and support law enforcement and uphold the Thin Blue Line. It’s made from PVC construction and has a hook back that’s ready to attach to any loop field.

Additional Badges & Adornments

In addition to tactical patches and emblems, Galls also carries a large selection of stock badges. This includes police badges and security badges that not only portray a symbol of authority but also act as a deterrent against crime as well.
