FAQs
What type of pitch are the New Balance Tekela V5 FG boots best suited for?
These boots are designed for Firm Ground (FG) pitches, meaning they perform best on natural grass that is dry or slightly damp.
Are these boots suitable for players with wide feet?
The Tekela V5 features a snug, compressive fit, particularly around the ankle collar. While the forefoot offers a standard fit, players with very wide feet might find the overall feel restrictive. It's recommended to try them on if possible.
How do I clean my Tekela V5 boots?
Clean them after use with a soft brush or damp cloth to remove dirt. Allow them to air dry naturally away from heat sources. Avoid machine washing or using harsh chemicals.
What is the benefit of the Rim Stud Technology?
Rim Stud Technology, featuring additional studs around the edge of the forefoot, provides enhanced stability and grip, particularly during explosive turns and rapid changes of direction.
Does the knitted collar provide good support?
Yes, the stretchy knitted collar is designed to offer a secure, compressive fit for comfortable lockdown around the ankle, helping to keep the foot stable within the boot.
Are the materials used in these boots sustainable?
Yes, the upper construction incorporates recycled content as part of New Balance's commitment to sustainability.
What is the primary advantage of the microfibre upper with deboss channels?
The microfibre upper offers a lightweight feel and allows for precise ball control. The deboss channels in key areas further optimize boot-to-ball contact for better manipulation.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable at the ankle.
Ensure laces are not overtightened. Try adjusting the lacing pattern, especially around the ankle area. A break-in period is often required for the knitted collar to adapt to your foot.
Lack of traction on firm ground.
Ensure the firm ground studs are clean and free from mud or debris. Check for any significant wear on the stud tips. These boots are optimized for dry or slightly damp firm ground; performance may vary on very wet or soft surfaces.
Upper material feels stiff.
The microfibre upper is designed to be durable and provide structure. Consistent wear and play will help the material become more supple and conform to your foot.
Slipping inside the boot.
Double-check that the laces are adequately tightened to utilize the lockdown features. Ensure the socks being worn are not causing excessive friction or slippage.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Lacing: Ensure the boots are laced securely and evenly to utilize the lockdown features of the knitted collar and midfoot.
Initial Wear: Wear the boots around the house for a short period to allow them to mold to your foot shape before playing a match.
Compatibility:
These are FG (Firm Ground) football boots, designed for use on natural grass pitches that are dry or slightly wet.
Not recommended for artificial grass, hard ground, or very wet/muddy conditions, as the stud configuration may not provide optimal traction and could increase the risk of injury.
Care:
Cleaning: After each use, remove excess dirt with a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaners.
Drying: Stuff the boots with newspaper or a dry cloth to absorb moisture and help them retain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight.
Storage: Store the boots in a cool, dry place, preferably in a breathable boot bag, to maintain their condition.
