Does anyone make "retro" USB mice in the style of the old, boxy ones from the 80s?

This has an old school vibe: https://www.rtings.com/mouse/reviews/xtrfy/m4-rgb

Just gotta turn the RGB off.

Yeah, and plug the holes. That would be a nightmare when it comes to cleaning.

yes and no. I actually mained that mouse a year ago or so.
The holes clean pretty easily.
The mouse itself is the best wired mouse I have ever used.
Light yet sturdy, modern yet with a good design.
No drivers and without rgb (or just a dim white backlight) it complimented my setup a lot.
Also use their TKL mechanical keyboard for gaming :D

Edit: Then there is still this interesting specimen.
looks retro, is mechanical but I suppose the ergomomics are pretty bad.
May be wrong though, never tried it ( and it should have better ergo then most if not all of those retro mice.
