talaria

n. winged sandals worn by the gods Mercury and Hermes (Classical Mythology); wings depicted on the ankles or feet (in the style of the gods Mercury and Hermes)

Talaria are winged sandals, a typical icon of the Greek Messenger God Hermes (Roman equivalent Mercury). They were said to be made of imperishable gold and flew the god as swift as any bird. The name is from the Latin tlria, from neuter plural of tlris, "of the ankles". They were notably lent to Perseus to help him slay Medusa, according to Aeschylus.
