Flexible badges are designed as practical alternatives to patches, ideal for tactical and utility wear. They’re most commonly worn on:

• Vest carriers – including outer vest carriers and body armor setups.
• Polo shirts or field uniforms – often used in warm-weather or plainclothes duty settings.
• Uniform shirts or jackets – especially where embroidered badges were previously used.

They are especially popular in corrections, EMS, and tactical teams because they contain no hard metal, no sharp parts, and offer a professional badge appearance with added flexibility and safety.

Flexible badges typically attach using hook-and-loop or heat seal backing, making them easy to apply to most garments.
