Here is the NASA insignia for SpaceX's next Commercial Resupply Services (SpX-8) flight to the International Space Station:

SpaceX's own patch for this flight has yet to be made public.

AB Emblem has been authorized by NASA to offer this patch for sale through its retail channels, with availability beginning in September.

According to the U.S. Air Force Space and Missile Museum regarding SpaceX's CRS-8 patch:
This patch will not be released [for sale] until successful completion of the mission — after successful splashdown and recovery of the Dragon capsule.
The CRS-8 Dragon is scheduled to return to Earth on May 11.
