Overview of the Strong Leather Co. Badge Holder | 80700-6422
When your duty badge is dapped (curved) or held by a pin fastener, a standard badge holder won't keep it secure or looking sharp on the job. The Strong Leather Company 80700-6422 solves that problem head-on. Part of the respected 807 Series, it features a double-thick recessed badge cavity that gives curved badges and pin-fastened shields the extra depth they need to sit flush and protected through every shift.
Crafted from top grain black leather and made in the USA, this holder carries the legacy that Strong Leather Company has built since 1932. A spring steel belt clip anchors to any belt up to 1.75 inches wide. A hidden interior pocket keeps your optional neck chain stowed until you need it for high-visibility credential display. The hook-and-loop (Velcro) closure makes badge attachment and removal fast and repeatable.
Trusted by law enforcement officers, deputies, and sworn personnel who need reliable badge carry, model 80700-6422 is custom cut to badge shape 6422, delivering a tailored fit that no universal holder can match.
Key Features
-
Double-Thick Recessed Badge Cavity: Two layers of leather form the badge section, creating a deeper recess ideal for dapped (curved) badges and badges with pin fasteners. Your badge fits fully into the holder, staying flush and secure rather than riding up or shifting during use.
-
Custom Cut to Badge Shape 6422: Precision cut to match the exact profile of badge shape 6422, this holder fits that specific badge far better than any universal-fit or generic oval holder. Strong Leather offers over 1,800 custom cutouts to match virtually every badge make and model.
-
Top Grain Leather Construction: Genuine top grain black leather with reinforced perimeter stitching throughout. Built to hold up through daily duty use and maintain a professional, polished appearance shift after shift.
-
Spring Steel Belt Clip: The spring metal clip attaches the holder securely to any duty belt or uniform belt up to 1.75 inches wide, keeping your badge stable and accessible at all times.
-
Hook-and-Loop (Velcro) Closure: Badge attachment and removal is fast and repeatable. Separate the front and back leather panels to place your badge, then press together for a firm hold during active wear.
-
Hidden Interior Chain Pocket: A dedicated pocket built into the interior stores an optional neck chain (sold separately) when not in use. The chain deploys quickly for neck-worn carry when visible credential display is required.
-
Made in the USA: Manufactured by Strong Leather Company in Gloucester, Massachusetts, continuing a tradition of American-made badge gear that dates to 1932.

Compatibility
The Strong Leather 80700-6422 is built specifically for dapped (curved) badges and badges secured by pin fasteners. The extra-thick badge section provides the depth needed for these badge types to sit flush without straining the leather or distorting your badge's finish.
Compatible badge types:
- Dapped (curved) badge profiles
- Badges with pin fasteners
- Badges matching Strong Leather cutout shape 6422
Belt compatibility: Fits duty belts up to 1.75 inches wide.
Not recommended for:
- Flat badges without curvature or pin fasteners -- the 811 Series single-thick holder is a better fit for flat badges and delivers a slimmer profile
- Belts wider than 1.75 inches
- Badges that do not match Strong Leather cutout shape 6422 -- an incorrect cutout will leave excess leather around your badge
Intended Users
The Strong Leather 80700-6422 is designed for law enforcement and public safety professionals who carry a badged credential on duty every day.
Patrol officers and deputies whose badges are dapped or pin-fastened benefit directly from the double-thick recessed section, which prevents badge distortion and keeps your credential looking sharp at every contact.
Detectives and plainclothes officers appreciate the dual-carry design: belt clip for discreet carry and the hidden chain pocket for quick conversion to neck-worn display when entering a building, working a scene, or making a high-visibility response.
Corrections officers, federal agents, and sworn security professionals count on Made-in-USA construction and decades of Strong Leather quality for gear that holds up through long shifts and demanding environments without stretching, cracking, or letting the badge shift loose.
Investigators and security supervisors who transition between office, fieldwork, and public-facing situations will find the convertible carry capability especially useful for fast, professional credential presentation.
