I love the idea. I second those who would prefer them nameless. But I like that they would stack for those of us who have fingers in many pies.
Excellent idea to support those of us who serve!

Does anyone know if this still going one. Any idea on an ETA of when you'll be releasing these? I'd love to get one.

Yes it is! The first prototypes are being manufactured right now. We had a delay because we did not like the original design once we got it. The new design is much better! We are trying to complete the first production run by the end of next month.
Cheers!

Hey Michael, how would we go about getting these first responder emblems. I’ve been putting the word out there about OB here at Livermore Pleasanton FD and have had an overwhelmingly positive response and interest. It would be cool to rock one on the Jeep here at work. Thanks!

Hey guys,
We received the 2nd prototype today! Here is an image. Please let me know what you think. This is the "First Responder" version. All other rockers would be similar in style, but with the appropriate icon. Let me know what you think. We do not HAVE to go into production on these, and can iterate. We thought this design was more cohesive with the emblem then the previous version.

Looks cool. The text I'm assuming is customizable. I know it would be tougher to do but would be cool if pd fire and ems had there own rockers each. I.E. star of life, fire cross, police badge.

I think they look sharp!!! I agree wholeheartedly with one of our officers in the rank. We need to honor our LEO’s but more importantly, we need to protect them. I’m not a fan of having our rank or anything easy for the public to identify us, ie. “Officer Smith”. I do like the idea of maybe a star of life for EMS, Maltese cross for Fire / Rescue, and a badge for LEO. I think they should be clear for members to recognize, but subtle for the general public to walk right past without noticing. Maybe the font could simply read “Defender” on all of them. Kind of like the defender or guardian badge. And the small symbol would identify our profession. Then we could extend this edition to military personnel using the symbol from their respective branch of the service. You can use guardian for public safety and use defender for military. Just brainstorming, hope it helps bro!

Very cool. Love them and thank you again for doing this. In today's world public servants are most of the time seen in a negative light. This deepens my love and devotion to this organization with your effort to show your appreciation for the jobs we have given our lives to. I have no input on what it looks like or changes that can be made. Just the fact that you are doing it means a lot to me. Thank you.
