FAQs

What type of surface are these boots designed for?

The New Balance Tekela V5 FG boots are designed for firm, natural grass pitches.

How do I clean my Tekela V5 boots?

Clean them with a soft brush or damp cloth after use. Avoid harsh detergents and direct heat for drying.

Are these boots suitable for players with wide feet?

While the fit is generally adaptable, the knitted collar offers a compressive fit. It's recommended to try them on if possible, as fit can be subjective, especially with the ankle collar.

What does 'FG' stand for on the soleplate?

FG stands for Firm Ground, indicating the boot's intended use on firm, natural grass pitches.

Do these boots contain recycled materials?

Yes, the upper on these boots incorporates recycled content as part of New Balance's commitment to sustainability.

Who are some of the professional athletes endorsed by the Tekela range?

The Tekela range is endorsed by players like Endrick, Raheem Sterling, Harvey Elliott, Jordyn Huitema, and Tim Weah.

How does the Rim Stud Technology improve performance?

The angled TPU rim studs around the forefoot provide enhanced support and grip, enabling lightning-fast turns and improved stability during agile movements.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable around the ankle.

Ensure laces are not overtightened. Try adjusting the lacing pattern to relieve pressure points. The knitted collar may also require a short break-in period.

Traction feels insufficient on wet grass.

The FG soleplate is optimized for firm ground. Performance may be reduced on very wet or muddy pitches. Consider an SG (Soft Ground) boot for such conditions.

Upper material is dirty or losing its texture.

Clean the upper gently with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Ensure all cleaning agents are rinsed off. Allow to dry naturally.

Studs feel uncomfortable on certain pitches.

The FG studs are designed for natural grass. If discomfort persists, ensure the pitch surface is appropriate for FG boots. The EVA sockliner provides some cushioning.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Enhanced ball control due to upper design and channels.
  • Superior traction and stability for quick directional changes.
  • Comfortable and secure fit with the knitted collar and offset instep.
  • Lightweight construction for agility on the pitch.
  • Sustainable materials used in construction.

Cons

  • Knitted collar may require an adjustment period for some users.
  • Firm ground (FG) soleplate is specifically designed for natural grass pitches and may not perform optimally on artificial surfaces.
  • Microfibre upper may require specific cleaning to maintain its condition.
  • Fit can be a personal preference, especially with the compressive collar.
  • Primarily suited for players who value agility and ball manipulation over brute force.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These boots are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have the correct size for a secure and comfortable fit. Lace them up using the standard lacing system for personalized lockdown.

Compatibility: The FG (Firm Ground) soleplate is designed for use on natural grass pitches that are firm and well-maintained. They are not recommended for artificial grass, hard ground, or muddy conditions.

Care:

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