Are they trying to incite a flashback?  (https://youtu.be/37I9_CFpkLw)

I think that's what they used instead of the swastika in bloodrayne.

Well, I don't know how that commercial is supposed to persuade me to buy their shoes. Then again, if I found them in the shoe store, I'd probably check them out. lol UGH!

The triple running leg image was a common design on hoplite shields in the 6th & 5th cc. BCE.  Here's a representation by the Berlin Painter on a volute krater.  https://www.artres.com/C.aspx?VP3=ViewBox_VPage&VBID=2UN365UIOQE3R&IT=ZoomImageTemplate01_VForm&IID=2UNTWA00NNG&PN=1&CT=Search&SF=0 (https://www.artres.com/C.aspx?VP3=ViewBox_VPage&VBID=2UN365UIOQE3R&IT=ZoomImageTemplate01_VForm&IID=2UNTWA00NNG&PN=1&CT=Search&SF=0)

The second link is a modern reconstruction of such a shield.  https://www.cgtrader.com/3d-models/military/armor/greek-hoplite-shield-model-a (https://www.cgtrader.com/3d-models/military/armor/greek-hoplite-shield-model-a)
