===Quest for the Orb===
====Battle of Morag====
By 2014, Peter Quill acquired the jet boot attachments, which were cheap to obtain.James Gunn on Twitter - James Gunn on Twitter - May 7, 2023 He brought them with him when he went to Morag in the Milano to procure the Orb. Afterwards, he was attacked by Korath and his team of Sakaarans who demanded that he drop the Orb. Quill used his jet boot attachments to escape them and pick up speed back to the Milano.
====Skirmish on Xandar====
Afterwards, Peter Quill went to Xandar in order to sell the Orb, and was confronted by Gamora. A skirmish then ensued between them. He distracted her and placed one of his jet boot attachments on her, activating it, causing her to be sent flying backwards.
====Skirmish on Knowhere====
Later, on Knowhere, Peter Quill proceeded to exit his pod and flew through deep space using his jet boot attachments to save Gamora, despite Rocket’s protests that he would not be able to survive in the extreme conditions of deep space. As Quill hovered in space using his attachments, he and Gamora were rescued by Yondu Udonta in the Eclector.

==Capabilities==
*Propulsion: While Peter Quill activates them with buttons on his leg. The jet attachments can rotate in any direction and can be used to propel him through the air at great speed, though they do not allow for sustained flight and only allow him to jump and briefly float for several feet. They can also be used in flying in deep space due to the lack of gravity and weight removing the limitations they experience in environments of normal gravity. Quill improvised the technology as weapons by attaching one of them on a hostile and activated them, which sent the target flying backwards.'

==Trivia==
*According to James Gunn, "The rocket boots comparatively suck. That's like cheap shit you get in the intergalactic version of Radio Shack."
==Behind the Scenes==
*The jet boot attachments were first used by Star-Lord in Guardians of the Galaxy, although they did not appear in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. This is because James Gunn had them replaced them with Aero-Rigs and intended for Quill's jet boots to be permanently phased out. Despite this, Star-Lord was depicted as still using the boots in Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame.
