The Design
Anthony Crolla always comes into the studio to discuss his boxing shorts and team fight kit for the big fights. We always sit down together and discuss boots and then match the kit upwards, even down to the socks. Check out our sock colours to match your kits on our online shop.
We went through fabric colours to go with Crollas new custom made boots. These were Anthonys second choice shorts incase of a colour clash, something professional fighters have to have as a requirement of the British Boxing Board. We went for a red and blue wetlook with white leatherette and blue and red Austrian Crystals crystals. Over 1500 Swarovksi crystals were used on the shorts, for the $ sign and names. They add value to the shorts, but waw they look amazing under the bright lights and shine, reflecting like small mirrors. You can have your names, logos etc in the Swarovski, just ask us to price with and without if you just curious on the price.
Check out Anthonys fight kit the purple white and gold in our portfolio also which shows the Gallaghers Gym team t-shirts, and suit bag.
Press
We gained a lot of press from these shorts due to the shorts being for such a special event in Manchester for Anthony Crollas second world title fight vs Perez. It was great to have Granada Reports from ITV down to film us handing over the shorts, and also MUTV who did a fantastic documentary that won an award this year for the first documentary on the first fight. It’s always a special moment handing over the shorts to the fighter and it was fantastic to see Anthonys reaction to the final product. We added the Pray for Paris symbol at the last minute to show the respect after the horrific events the weekend, this was a lovely touch for the event and respects where paid on the night also.
The Fight
What an amazing night at the Manchester Arena, Anthony Crolla became World Lightweight Champion of the world with a fifth round stoppage by body shot. What a moment, for such a great fighter and what an honour to have the opportunity to design the fight kit for such a big night.
