Original Boxing Merchandise on CafePress

Boxing themed items from my CafePress store

Obviously inspired by my love of Johnny Owen, I have a growing number of Boxing themed products in my CafePress Shop. They do not include his name or actual likeness so are ideal for all Boxing fans, and are already a proven favourite among Boxing Clubs and Training Gyms!. Items include tops & tees, hats & caps, mugs, mousemats, badges, magnets, greetings cards, postcards, keepsake boxes, ornaments, aprons, journals, stickers and many more...
Please Note: I can only display one product in each link, if you click on an item link you will be shown the full details of that item, near the top of your screen you will see a link to the design title (EG. "Knockout") click on that link and you will find all products with your chosen design!. I have many other themes in my shop besides Boxing. If you wish to see the entire store simply click the blue link "Karen`s Kreations Gift Shop" shown with each sample below!
