This mummy from Mongolia had great kicks. When a group of archaeologists unwrapped the remains of a 1,500-year-old mummy, they found that the ancient human was buried wearing a pair of boots with a design that somehow resembles the Adidas logo.

The pair of boots they found were well-preserved along with other items. The excavation of the mummy's grave unearthed several possessions such as a clay vase, a saddle, pillows, a trough, a bridle, an iron kettle, a wooden bowl, four 'dool' (ancient Mongolian clothes) and the carcass of a whole horse.

The archaeologists also found a sheep's head, a felt bag that contained a sheep's entire back, a leather bag intended to carry a cup and several goat bones.

The recent find is considered the very first complete set of Turkik burial remains discovered in Central Asia.

Am I missing something? Those are bands tying the boot opening together. Dumb article.

I heard he had a monocle on a chain and a meerschaum pipe behind his ear. Protohipster.

Yes you are. Would you care about them finding a 1,500 year old body if it wasn't in some way tied to today? Not much news on the Archaeology front that would interest common people, so when they have something to spur interest "Kobe vs Lebron would wear it better" they take that opportunity.

looks to me like the white people running Adidas have culturally appropriated the design of Mongolian shoes. I think safe spaces and reparations are in order.

Enjoy the high while it lasts. We sure did. Every runner gets tired. Your program is on a plateau with the downward slide looming.

ETA: Those are not the Stan Smiths I expected. They've been around long enough.
