FAQs

What type of surface are these boots best for?

The New Balance Tekela V5 Team FG boots are designed for Firm Ground (FG) surfaces, which primarily means natural grass pitches. They offer optimal traction and stability on this type of terrain.

Can I use these boots on artificial turf?

While technically possible, the FG soleplate is not optimized for artificial turf. Using them on artificial surfaces may lead to reduced performance, increased wear on the studs, and a higher risk of injury due to less stable footing.

How do I clean my Tekela football boots?

After playing, remove excess dirt with a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid using strong detergents. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat.

What does 'Tekela' signify for New Balance football boots?

The Tekela line is engineered by New Balance for players who excel at creating space and executing plays with dynamic touch and full control.

Are these boots suitable for all playing positions?

Yes, the Tekela V5 Team FG is designed for players of all levels and positions, focusing on control and touch which are beneficial across the game.

What is the main advantage of the Tekela V5 Team FG's design?

The primary advantage is the focus on providing a dynamic touch and full ball control, enabling players to execute their vision on the pitch effectively.

How do I know if I have the right size?

The boots should feel snug but not painfully tight. There should be minimal heel slippage, and your toes should not be jammed against the front. A short break-in period is normal.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable

Wear them for short periods initially to allow the materials to stretch and conform to your foot shape. Ensure you have the correct size and consider using thinner socks if necessary.

Lack of traction on the pitch

Ensure the FG studs are clean and free of debris. The FG soleplate is designed for natural grass; performance may be reduced on different surfaces like artificial turf or very wet/muddy conditions.

Material appears worn or damaged

Inspect the boots regularly for signs of wear. Clean them after each use and store them properly to prolong their lifespan. Avoid using them on inappropriate surfaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These football boots come ready to wear. Ensure they fit snugly but comfortably before your first use. It is recommended to wear them for a short training session to allow them to mold to your feet.

Compatibility: The FG (Firm Ground) soleplate is designed specifically for use on natural grass pitches. It provides optimal traction on slightly damp or dry surfaces. Avoid using these boots on hard or artificial surfaces, as this can damage the studs and affect performance.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: After each use, remove excess dirt and mud using a soft brush or a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
  2. Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources like radiators or heaters, as this can damage the materials. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain their shape.
  3. Storage: Store the boots in a cool, dry place, preferably in a boot bag, to protect them from dust and moisture.
