They're custom shoes Nike makes for her. She had foot problems wearing the regular LJ spikes. Markov has very similar spikes too. Many elite athletes has Nike make them custom spikes with different combinations of spike plates and uppers. Too bad Nike will never release them to the public.

This is true, when I jumped with her, she had them make her like 10 different pairs because of the nagging foot injury that she has had for years. They also make special ones for Tim Mack that look similar.
