Brick House Cracked Brick Firefighter Helmet Shield

The Brick House Leather Firefighter Helmet Shield is the dedicated cracked-masonry design in the Little River Customs collection. Illustrated brickwork breaks through the central field around a large identifier, creating a look distinct from striped, flag, or traditional emblem layouts.

The design combines upper and lower text zones with a large center identifier surrounded by exposed brick and broken-wall detail. Use the available fields for department, company, rank, name, station, or other short wording supported by the live preview.

Color choices control the contrast between the leather field, lettering, borders, masonry, and center identifier. The gallery includes a finished shield and a digital layout example. Review the complete preview carefully because the photographed arrangement does not automatically determine another order’s selections.

A focused illustrated design

Brick House is handmade from full-grain leather. The cracked brickwork remains part of the design across the available size and color choices.

Six sizes and unpunched mounting

Choose from six height-and-width combinations after measuring the helmet’s shield holder. The finished shield ships unpunched so mounting holes can be positioned for the customer’s hardware. Do not select size from a photograph alone.

Brick House versus Chevron

Choose Brick House when broken-wall and exposed-brick artwork should surround the primary identifier. For a cleaner repeated diagonal pattern, compare the Chevron Leather Firefighter Helmet Shield. For raised banners and scrollwork rather than illustrated masonry, see the Backdraft Fire Helmet Front.

Confirm text, spelling, capitalization, colors, and physical dimensions in the live preview before submitting the personalized order. The distinctive artwork should remain the deciding reason to select this design.

The fixed masonry motif supports consistent department styling across individually personalized shields.

Choose height first. Measure from the brim where the shield’s bottom sits to the top notch where the shield seats in the holder, not the top of the eagle or ornament. Choose the closest available height at or slightly below that measurement. Round down slightly between sizes.

Example: 6.3″ of available height → a 6.25″-tall shield. A 6.5″-tall shield is too tall.

Then make a quick width check. Width usually falls in line once height is chosen. Measure outside-to-outside across the mounting studs or screws and add ¾–1″ total for the minimum recommended shield width. Add this once, not to each side. You can choose a wider look.

Phenix TL-2: Usually needs 6.25″ or 6.5″ of width. Choose the correct height first.

Sizes are listed height × width. Check this design’s available options. See our fire helmet shield measuring guide for photos and the helmet reference chart.

We do not punch mounting holes. Use our shield mounting guide to position and punch them for your helmet’s hardware.

These options are not offered on every shield. When available on a design, the explanations below show what each option changes in the finished shield.

Textured

A tooled texture applied to the face of the leather. It adds visual bite and gives the shield a more aggressive, high-contrast look.

Smooth

No surface texture added. The leather face remains flat and clean, giving the shield a sharper, more traditional appearance with full focus on layout and lettering.

Beveling/Tooling

Hand-carved and stamped tooling with beveled detail around borders, numbers, or design elements. Adds depth and definition to the leather.

Mounting your fire helmet shield is simple when you line it up correctly and drill or punch the holes the right way. Start by matching the shield to your helmet’s holder, check alignment, and mark your hole positions before drilling or punching. Once the hardware is secured, tighten everything evenly and break it in so it sits clean and square.
