Shoppers can choose their favorite designs featuring evil demon monkeys, cursed idols, and characters like Guy Dangerous, Scarlett Fox and Karma Lee.
Plus, for a limited time, fans can show-off their high scores with free customizable luggage and backpack tags.
Some of the designs featured in the Official Temple Run store include:

“This great selection of official art showcases some of the fantastic near misses and quick demises encountered when playing this extraordinarily addictive app!” said Marc Cowlin, Director of Marketing at CafePress.com. “We think players are really going to respond to this ultimate selection of custom designs and gear as it shows off the coolest features and scenes of the game.”
“The launch of an official Temple Run store really came out of demand from the fans. People kept asking us where they could buy Temple Run shirts,” says co-creator Keith Shepherd. “We wanted to let our fans show off some of the beautiful art and humor that make Temple Run so great and are happy to fulfill the demand through a fantastic partnership with CafePress.”
In the year since its release, Temple Run has been downloaded over 100 million times, totaling over 10 billion sessions played since August 2011.
