In my force (Dyfed-Powys), we get issued with embroidered epaulettes with collar number and SC crowns. The problem being the chrome special sergeant rank bars they issue us do not fit in between the sc crowns and collar number... just wondered if anyone knew of a company that I can order custom embroidered epaulettes with collar number, rank bar and SC crown? I know Niton do some but they take 4 weeks to do, just wondered if there were any other companies out there.

I know it is a fairly stock answer, however, couldn't you have a chin wag with stores and see if they could send you some plain eppies with your collar number on so you can put the bars on?

Could you not just ask stores to embroider the bars on at the same time they do the other stuff, thats what our stores do

Might just have to go with Niton999 then... shame about the 4 week delivery period, and the p&p on top.

Better than the 6 year delivery period if you order from stores

nearly 2 weeks on and I'm starting to lose patience, I know they say 3 - 4 weeks but that's longer than it actually sounds

They did indeed, and I must say they are very good quality, and quite nice... though I have yet to actually wear them, I spent a lot of time putting all my chrome numbers and bars on my various uniforms and am rather fond of them now... they will probably go on my hi-vis as that's what the numbers usually fall off of.
