About this product
Vintage Nike Typhoon soccer cleats from 1988, size 12 US (kids/youth), made in Taiwan. These lace-up, low-top shoes feature a white leather upper with leather lining and rubber outsole. Designed for teens, they include rare 80s styling with the iconic Swoosh logo. The cleats are plastic, suited for firm ground. Customized with accents like lace and logo, they embody true vintage appeal.
Our take
These Nike Typhoon cleats are a blast from the past. The leather upper is solid and the white colorway still pops. As a youth size 12, they fit my smaller feet well, but the plastic cleats are more nostalgic than high-performing on modern pitches. The rubber outsole is flexible, offering decent feel. The leather lining is comfortable but may need breaking in. At $21.00, they're a steal for collectors or those wanting retro style for casual wear. Not ideal for competitive play due to age and cleat design.
