Having problems with message search?
Most world class athletes use their feet as well - no time for tapes!!
If you are a left foot takeoff I can recommend ASICS as a good shoe but you do really want to try a few makes if you can to find the most comfortable fit for your feet. The need to feel very secure around your heel so that you feel stable and supported in the shoe at plant.
Start by looking back through the archives. There really is a HUGE amount of solid sensible and useful information there. And it is worth the effort - count it as part of training :-)

really excited. I'm a Junior in High School and I adore high jump. I
went to State last year and I have to say that I realized I got there
purely on luck and a lot of praying to God apparently... I didn't have
high jump shoes, I measured my approach out in feet (literally one foot
in front of the other) instead of a tape measure... And my coach
basically abandons me.
So my Mom promised to get high jump shoes and I have no idea if any are
better than the other. Any help on that or just general ideas of how to
get into shape for the '07 Track season would be great.
