Medal Display Cases for Runners, Swimmers and Athletes
You earned that medal. It should not live in a drawer or on a hook behind the door. Our medal shadow boxes hold race medals, bibs, ribbons and photos behind framer's grade acrylic. Every case has 2 inches of depth and a suede back you can pin into.
Framing service medals instead? See our military shadow boxes. They come with branch color presets.
Built for the Finish Line
Room for the medal and the bib
Put the medal next to the bib you wore that day. Add a finish photo if you like.
Medals hang free
Two inches of space inside means thick medals hang naturally. Nothing presses on the acrylic.

Guaranteed craftsmanship
We stand behind every frame we build. If the craftsmanship ever falls short, we make it right at no charge.
How Medal Display Cases Work
2-Inch Depth Holds Your Medals
Race medals are thick, and most hang from a wide ribbon. Our standard shadow boxes give you 2 full inches of space inside. Your medals hang the way they did at the finish line, without touching the front.
Need More Depth? Ultra Deep 3.5-Inch Shadow Boxes
Spinner medals and stacked medal sets take more room. Our Ultra Deep Matte Black and Ultra Deep Bright White shadow boxes give you 3.5 inches inside. Pick either one from the frame picker in the designer above.
Suede Backing You Can Pin Into
The inside of every box is lined with display-grade suede, not felt. Push pins go straight through it. No glue. No tape. Move things around any time.
Pick a Size for Your Display
Compact (11x14) is for a single race. Standard (16x20) holds a few medals with their bibs and a photo. Large (20x32) is for a full season or a race series. Or type in your own size in the designer.
Add the Race Name and Your Time
Add a brass nameplate with the race name and your finish time.
How to Mount Your Medals
Pin the medal ribbon to the suede near the top so the medal hangs below it. Pin the bib at its corners. Never glue a medal or a ribbon. Pins come out clean if you want to change the layout later.
Medal Displays for Every Sport
Running and Marathon Medals
Your first 5K or your first marathon. Frame one big race, or a whole year of them.
Triathlon and Cycling Medals
Triathlon medals often come in big, heavy shapes. The Ultra Deep box gives them room.
Swimming and Track Medals
Meet medals are small, so a lot of them fit in one Standard case. Lay them out in rows by season.
Youth Sports and School Medals
From the first team medal to the state finals. A medal display case keeps a kid's whole run together on one wall.
Common Questions
What size shadow box do I need for race medals?
Compact (11x14) fits a single race. Standard (16x20) fits a few medals with bibs and a photo. Large (20x32) fits a full season. You can also type in your own size in the designer.
How deep should a medal display case be?
Two inches works for most race medals. Pick the 3.5-inch Ultra Deep box for spinner medals, stacked sets or very thick medals.
Can I put my race bib in with the medal?
Yes. Pin the bib to the suede back at its corners. It sits flat behind or next to the medal.
How do I hang medals inside the box?
Pin the ribbon to the suede near the top. The medal hangs below it. Use pins, never glue or tape.
Can I add the race name and my finish time?
Yes. Add a brass nameplate with the race name and your finish time.
How long does shipping take?
Orders ship in 3-5 business days. Every case is built to order.
What is the difference between a medal display case and a medal shadow box?
They are the same thing. A medal display case is a shadow box: a deep frame with acrylic on the front and a fabric back you can pin into.
Can I frame military medals here?
Use our military shadow boxes for service medals. They have branch color presets and a size that fits a folded flag.
