Actually, since players play in their shoes, it makes sense to measure them in their shoes. I heard a year or two back that you can only have a difference of 2 inches between your barefoot height and your shoe height. I guess it stops guys from wearing stilettos to their measurements.

And I will add to the people asking for a link.
