What Is FlexBadge?
FlexBadge is the original 3D flexible emblem. The metallic, durable alternative to the traditional embroidered patch and direct embroidery. Created by Blackinton and customized entirely in-house in the USA, FlexBadge gives your department the authority and detail of a metal badge in a lightweight, flexible form that wears comfortably all day.
Exceptionally detailed with a true metallic finish, FlexBadge conveys the same authority as metal. Need something more tactical? We also offer subdued finishes like our new olive green, black, and gunmetal. Just like our metal badges, you can order FlexBadge in gold, silver, pink, two-tone or any of our awareness finishes, and personalize it with the lettering, seal, finish, and backing of your choice. And like our metal badges, there are no minimums on our 200+ standard FlexBadge styles. Order one, or a thousand.
Accept No Imitations
Blackinton brought FlexBadge to market first, and its success brought a wave of overseas imitations. Many look similar in a photo, but they aren’t built to last. The lower-cost copies flooding the market are made overseas and simply won’t stand up to the daily rigors of the job.
The original FlexBadge is made in the USA and backed by a proven durability track record. When your emblem has to hold up shift after shift, insist on the original by Blackinton. Reach out to an authorized Blackinton dealer or our sales team.
