You should be able to get them at any sporting goods store. Probably you want 3/8" spikes, because on most high jump shoes the spikes are recessed into the platform-like bottom of the shoe. You'd probably trip if they were longer and you wouldn't want anything longer than that on any decent high jump surface. Make sure you put the heel spikes in, because they help you get a more secure plant when you take off. Take it from a 7'1" high jumper-just so you know your source is credible.

What is the difference between track shoes and high jump shoes?
Well, I don't have experience with these specific types of shoes, but I do have several years of working in retail shoe stores, so will take an educated guess on this one. Most likely, track shoes are geared towards running, so will be slightly curved to aid in the running motion, will have soles that grip the ground, and will have cushioning mainly in the heels to absorb the shock of running. High jump shoes are probably more flexible to accommodate the motion of jumping, and probably have cushioning at the ball of the feet, to absorb shock upon landing, which most likely occurs at the ball of the foot.

Do you need track spikes for high jump?
Since you are standing on concrete and no running is involved, I would highly recommend NOT doing it. It ruins your spikes and your technique, not to mention the sound the spikes make. There are throwing shoes designed specifically for different techniques, they usually have thick rubber and curved sides on the bottom for smoother throwing.
