FAQs

Are these boots suitable for wide feet?

The Tekela series generally offers a standard athletic fit, but the materials provide some flexibility to accommodate various foot shapes over time.

Can I use these on artificial grass?

These boots are optimized for firm ground; while they can be used on some artificial surfaces, it is recommended to check if your specific model variant is intended for AG use.

How do I maintain the grey colour?

Regularly wipe the boots clean after use to prevent dirt from staining the synthetic materials.

Are they true to size?

Yes, they generally align with standard UK sizing for adult football boots.

What is the best way to store them?

Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area, preferably out of their bag to allow air circulation.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel stiff during initial wear

Wear them for short periods during light training sessions to allow the materials to mold to your foot shape.

Build-up of mud on the outsole

Use a specialized boot brush or a dull plastic scraper to clear mud from between the studs after every game.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Tekela boots maintain their performance, follow these guidelines:

  1. Fit Check: Ensure the boots fit snugly around the midfoot without restricting circulation. Being a performance boot, they should feel like an extension of your foot.
  2. Surface Compatibility: These boots are primarily designed for firm ground (FG) surfaces. Using them on artificial turf or hard indoor courts may lead to premature wear or discomfort.
  3. Cleaning: After each session, brush off loose mud and debris using a soft-bristled brush. Wipe the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary.
  4. Drying: Never dry boots near heat sources like radiators or in direct sunlight, as this can crack the material. Air dry them naturally at room temperature with the laces loosened.
