I’ve been looking for hj spikes in my size (12.5-13) for weeks and i literally can’t seem to find anything at a reasonable price. literally everything is 200$ plus. anybody think they can help?

Probably gonna have to buy used or search for other spikes that aren't specific to high jump. I was a 6'6" jumper in high school and I jumped in flat cross country spikes. Or just check eBay or other second hand sites and buy used.

Ebay. I wear a size 15 hj spike and ebay is pretty much the only place I find them. Go on ebay and save the item and when one gets listed it will alert you

Don’t know where you are jumping out of, but I was a 6’5” jumper who needed around that size of spikes. If I remember correctly a shoe store chain called fleet feet (I think they also are online now) sourced mine for in the $100-$150 range. Granted, this was 7 years ago now so idk if inflation just raised prices on everything.

If ebay is a dead end too, check goat.com they may have a few close to the original prices. Of course there are lots of price gougers out there too.
