FAQs
What type of pitch are the New Balance Tekela V5 Elite FG boots best suited for?
These boots are designed for Firm Ground (FG) natural grass pitches. Their stud configuration provides optimal traction and stability on this surface.
How does the Dynamic Touch Technology upper enhance play?
The upper combines debossed channels and nanoprinted silicone elements to improve the contact area between the boot and the ball, leading to better control, feel, and precision during dribbling and passing.
What is the purpose of the Rim Stud Technology?
Rim Stud Technology features additional TPU angled rim studs around the edge of the forefoot, which provide enhanced stability and support for lightning-fast turns and changes of direction.
How should I care for my Tekela V5 Elite FG boots?
Clean them with a soft brush or damp cloth after use, and allow them to air dry naturally. Avoid direct heat sources. Store in a cool, dry place.
Will the lacquer finish wearing off affect the boot's performance?
No, the wear of the lacquer finish on the soleplate is purely cosmetic and will not affect the performance or functionality of the football boots.
Are these boots suitable for players with wide feet?
The Hypoknit collar and lace closure allow for some adjustability. However, the fit is designed to be snug for lockdown. Players with very wide feet might find them restrictive and should consider trying them on if possible.
Does the boot incorporate any sustainable materials?
Yes, the upper on every model of the Tekela V5 incorporates recycled content as part of New Balance's commitment to sustainability.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or cause pressure points
Loosen the laces and re-tie, ensuring even tension. The Seamfree Offset Instep Zone may require a short break-in period. If pressure persists, consider if the size is correct for your foot shape.
Traction feels inconsistent on dry pitch
Ensure the studs are clean and free from debris. The multidirectional stud configuration is designed for optimal grip on firm ground; verify the pitch conditions match the boot's intended use.
Inside of the boot feels damp after play
Allow boots to air dry completely after each use. Ensure they are not stored while still wet. Consider using a boot dryer designed for sports footwear if frequent dampness is an issue.
Lacquer on the soleplate is wearing off
This is a cosmetic issue and does not affect the performance or integrity of the boot. No action is required.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Lacing: Ensure the laces are tied securely but comfortably. Adjust the tension to achieve a snug fit without restricting blood flow. The Seamfree Offset Instep Zone should feel supportive but not constricting.
Initial Wear: It is recommended to wear the boots for short periods initially to allow them to mold to your feet.
Compatibility:
These boots are specifically designed for Firm Ground (FG) natural grass pitches.
They are not recommended for use on artificial grass, hard ground, or soft ground, as this can affect performance and potentially damage the stud configuration.
Care:
Cleaning: After each use, remove excess mud and dirt with a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
Drying: Allow the boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not place them near direct heat sources (e.g., radiators, hairdryers) as this can damage the materials.
Storage: Store the boots in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
Lacquer Finish: Note that the lacquer finish on the bottom of the boot may wear off during play. This is a normal cosmetic change and does not impact the boot's performance or durability.
