I have a senior that has never gone out for a sport he is 6'7" and size 17 foot. It appears the he would have to special order them. even if what you have is 20yrs old he would probably be interested

I got my boyfriend some spikes in size 15, but I think that's as big as most brands make them.

If you go to the First to the Finish website and search for size 17, they have some mid-distance spikes for $25, those would probably work for your kid.

he is very skinny I would be suprised if he is over 180. He seems to be very athletic. the gym teacher said he has a 38" vertical. His younger sister jumped 10'3" last year as a frosh. That's why I'm putting some extra effort to find these spikes b/c he looks like he has potential on paper. His parents just wouldn't let him do any extra curricular activities until now.
