FAQs

What type of pitch are these boots designed for?

These are Firm Ground (FG) football boots, best suited for natural grass pitches that are dry or slightly damp.

How do I clean my New Balance Tekela V5 Elite FG boots?

Wipe off excess dirt with a brush or dry cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals and dry them naturally away from heat.

What does 'Rim Stud Technology' do?

Rim Stud Technology features TPU angled rim studs on the forefoot that provide enhanced support and stability for lightning-fast turns and agile movements.

Are these boots suitable for players with wide feet?

The Tekela V5 Elite FG has a standard fit. While the lacing can be adjusted, the Hypoknit collar and offset instep zone are designed for a secure, snug fit which may not be ideal for very wide feet without trying them on first.

Does the wear on the lacquer finish affect performance?

No, the lacquer finish on the soleplate is primarily decorative. Its wear does not affect the performance, traction, or structural integrity of the boot.

What is the benefit of the offset instep zone?

The seamfree offset instep zone is designed to provide secure lockdown while reducing pressure on the nerves at the top of the foot, enhancing comfort during play.

What is the role of the Ortholite sockliner?

The Ortholite sockliner provides cushioning for ground impacts, improving comfort and shock absorption during play, allowing you to move with more confidence.

Are these boots eco-friendly?

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

Troubleshooting

Boots feel too tight or cause pressure points

Ensure the lacing is adjusted correctly. The seamfree offset instep zone is designed to reduce pressure, but slight adjustments to the lacing can help achieve a more personalized fit. If pressure persists, consider if the boot size is appropriate or if a short break-in period is needed.

Reduced grip on wet surfaces

While designed for firm ground, the Clarino microfibre forefoot offers improved grip. Ensure the boots are clean; mud or debris can impair traction. For extremely wet conditions, consider alternative footwear designed for those specific conditions.

Lacquer finish on soleplate is wearing off

This is a cosmetic effect and does not impact the performance or function of the boot. It is expected to occur with regular use on firm ground pitches.

Hypoknit collar feels restrictive

The Hypoknit collar is designed for a secure, compressive fit. Ensure it is positioned correctly around the ankle. If it remains uncomfortably restrictive after a break-in period, the fit may not be suitable for your foot shape.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptional ball control due to specialized grip elements and microfibre upper.
  • Secure and comfortable fit with the Hypoknit collar and offset instep zone.
  • Enhanced agility and stability during sharp turns with Rim Stud Technology.
  • Lightweight construction for better speed and performance.
  • Focus on sustainability with the use of recycled materials.

Cons

  • Decorative lacquer finish on the soleplate may wear off during play.
  • Firm ground specific, limiting use on other pitch types.
  • May require a break-in period for optimal comfort.
  • Offset instep zone might not suit all foot shapes.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Initial Setup: These football boots are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have the correct size for a snug, secure fit. The lace closure allows for personalized adjustment.

Compatibility: Designed specifically for Firm Ground (FG) pitches, typically natural grass. Use on artificial turf or excessively wet/muddy grounds is not recommended and may affect performance and durability.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: After each use, remove excess dirt with a soft brush or dry cloth. For tougher mud, use a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or solvents.
  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 boots in a cool, dry place, ideally in a boot bag, to maintain their shape and protect them from dust and moisture.
  4. Lacquer Finish: Be aware that the lacquer finish on the bottom of the boot is cosmetic and may wear off during play. This does not impact the boot's performance or structural integrity.
