They are worth 5,000 gold, 10 times what the boots or broom are worth. At most, it's definitely not better than either the Broom or the Boots. The higher move speed will occasionally pay off, but usually the ability to fly whenever you want will win out in terms of practical utility. Again, a pretty powerful item, but probably less useful than either the Broom or the Boots for most practical purposes. The Wings give you a fly speed of 60 feet for one hour but then require a 1d12 hour cooldown period after each use before they can be activated again. Right under the Winged Boots are the Wings of Flying. Yet both the Boots and the Broom are uncommon, they only cost 500 gold, pretty much any adventurer who decides they want one should be able to get their hands on one if they really want to. If the other side also has no good ranged attacks the flying team more or less wins automatically. Both are clearly very powerful, if you've got two sides in a combat one of which can fly and one of which can't the flying side has a huge advantage. The Boots give a fly speed equal to your walking speed for 4 hours per day divisible into 1 minute chunks while the broom gives you a flat 50 foot fly speed all day long, decreasing to 30 feet if you are particularly heavy. Among the first I came across were the Winged Boots and the Broom of Flying. There are a few items which give the ability to fly in the 5e DMG.
