I have a number of older nike track spikes from my high school and college running days, such as the Miler, Ventulus, Jasari +, Victory, Matumbo, etc.
Most of these are used but still have life left in them (apart from a couple pairs that were never worn) - are these worth anything or should I just trash them / donate them?
In high school, I remember people would pay a ton for certain models (even used) like the original Jasari - is that still the case? If so, where / how to sell them?
What sizes you got? Are the vics new? Been in the market for a pair.
Everything is a 10.
Victories are not new. I have a pair of the original Ethiopian colorway that I would be interested in getting rid of.
The only pairs that are brand new are white and black matumbos and USA colorway ventulus 2 (white with rid and blue swooshes).
Ah I wear a 9, darn.
Ah too bad.
Curious though - what would you pay for them if they were your size? Trying to figure out if it’s worth selling these or if I should just skip to trashing/donating.
List them on ebay or poshmark or stockx, there are probably collectors looking for them though they usually want the original box to pay top $.
Would contact the local high school coach. I am constantly looking for spikes for my athletes - lots of them struggle to afford the trainers, let alone adding on an extra pair just for racing.

Ebay. Collectors will find them there.
Thanks everyone. Will try eBay for a few of the better pairs and talk to a friend who coaches to see if they’re interested in the others.
Yeah, I'd say pay it forward and donate the used pairs, and then see if you can get a few bucks for the new and like-new ones.
I'm size 10, donate to me. Thankie
eBay for sure. Those will all sell regardless of condition. 10 is the hottest selling pair. I for one would be interested
I have a pair of Nike Zoom Victory Elite (first release) in blue, men’s size 12. Condition is 8.5/10 if anyone is interested. Raced in once maybe
