Hermes Boots

Hermes Boots are an accessory that can be found in Underground, Underground Desert, and Underground Jungle Chests. When equipped, they allow the player to gain a speed boost after running for a certain distance continuously. Your speed will continue increasing until maximum speed is attained. At full sprint, they will increase your horizontal movement speed by ~40%. (See Sprinting accessories for more information on the sprint effect.) The Hermes Boots, the Flurry Boots and the Sailfish Boots have identical functionality.

Trivia
