BADGE THEORY

Theory

Made to be seen

Custom brushed-silver badges for the trails you've run, the rigs you've built and the names worth keeping. Designed one at a time, finished to sit on a fender, a toolbox or a wall.

What we make

If it means something to you, it can be a badge. These are the kinds of pieces we build most.

Places

Trail badges

Forest roads, WMAs, summits. The name, the state, the elevation.

Vehicles

Rig badges

Proof of the run, sized to mount on your truck or Jeep.

Hobbies

Pursuit badges

Drone pilots, black powder shooters, whatever you're into.

Names

Nameplates

Your name on your toolbox, cut out in your own lettering.

Tribute

Memorial plates

Name and dates, kept close where you work every day.

Ready to ship

Trail badges we've already designed. Pick a size and backing and add them to your order, or tap Customize to change the wording.

Gift cards

Let them design their own. We email the gift card code to you after your order, so you can print it or forward it.

The work

Tap any piece to see it up close. Pieces marked One-off custom were designed by hand for a customer, and we can do the same for you.

One of a kind

Want something the builder can't do?

Detailed artwork like the revolver and the drone, cut-out name lettering, your logo, a map outline of your favorite trail. Send us your idea, a sketch or a photo and we'll design it with you. Custom pieces are quoted one at a time.

Badge Theory: Made to be seen

How it works

You bring the idea. We handle the design and the build.

STEP 1

Tell us the idea

A place, a vehicle, a name, a date. Send a sketch or just the words.

STEP 2

We draw it up

You get a digital proof with the shape, lettering and artwork laid out.

STEP 3

You approve

Ask for changes until it's right. Nothing gets made until you say go.

STEP 4

We build & ship

Your badge is made, checked and sent out ready to mount.

Badge builder

Lay out your badge here and watch it come together. When it looks right, copy the request and send it over. We'll turn it into a finished proof.

Size & shape

Badge size

Start with size. It sets the price and how much detail we can carve, and every option after this is matched to it.

Shape

Greyed-out choices don't leave room to cut your wording cleanly at this badge size. Pick a bigger size or shorten a line to open them up.

Border

Words

Leave any line blank to drop it. Curve 0 is straight; slide right to arch the top line up and bend the bottom line into a smile.
