Thanks for all the advice! I am a left footed jumper and so I'll
definitely take it into account as I was looking around and had no
idea if any were better than any other! I will definitely check out
the ones suggested and see what will work best.

Also, I don't know if this makes any difference (But I realized I
didn't mention it in my first post) I'm a girl... so if women's shoes
are any different or anything, yeah.

I'll check out the archives most definitely, thank you for the
wonderful and prompt help!

have to agree with Denis that if you are a left foot take-off high
jumper you can't do better than the ASICS high jump shoe. Not that
you can't get a right foot take-off shoe. I'm an online retailer for
ASICS and my experience is that it takes about 3-4 weeks for me to
get a right foot take-off high jump shoe from Japan. That shoe
retails $40 higher plus the shipping is outrageous if I'm just
ordering 1 pair. I have a couple people who are interested for this
spring and I'm about to submit an order. If we have multiple pairs
shipped it's much less expensive per pair.
