Scottish St Andrew’s Cross (Saltire) Tactical Patch – Hook & Loop
Product Overview
This is a durable tactical insignia patch featuring the Saltire, the national flag of Scotland. Designed for use with modern modular clothing and equipment, this patch features a high-contrast white St Andrew’s Cross on a traditional blue field. Unlike permanent sew-on versions, this patch is fitted with a hook and loop fastener backing, allowing it to be instantly attached to or removed from combat shirts, UBACS, rucksacks, and tactical "contractor" caps. It is a rugged, field-ready identifier that combines national heritage with practical utility.
Key Features & Functional Benefits

Hook & Loop Integration: Factory-fitted with a high-strength hook-side backing for rapid attachment to any loop-faced tactical surface.
-
Hard-Wearing Embroidery: Stitched with high-density, wear-resistant thread to ensure the white cross and blue field remain vibrant and legible after heavy use.
-
Reinforced Edges: Features a clean, merrowed border to prevent fraying and peeling, even when frequently moved between different sets of gear.
-
Low-Profile Silhouette: Designed to sit flush against the sleeve or admin panel, reducing the risk of snagging on foliage or rucksack straps.
-
Versatile Sizing: Sized specifically to fit standard uniform sleeve panels and tactical caps, ensuring a professional and proportionate appearance.
