This patch reproduces the design historically worn on caps by members of the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE), also known as the Tamil Tigers. The central motif features a roaring tiger’s head framed by crossed rifles and radiating sunbursts—imagery that symbolized strength, armed struggle, and Tamil self-determination.
The LTTE, active from 1976 until 2009, was a separatist organization that sought to establish an independent Tamil state in northern and eastern Sri Lanka. Their insignia, often displayed on flags, uniforms, and patches, became a highly recognizable emblem of the movement and its long-running conflict with the Sri Lankan state.
This reproduction patch is based on versions worn by LTTE fighters on headgear, scaled for authenticity at just over two inches in height. It serves as a striking historical piece reflecting one of the most prominent insurgent movements in South Asia during the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
This item is a non-authentic reproduction intended for historical and educational purposes, as well as for display in private collections. It is not meant to promote any political stance or ideology.
