FAQs

What type of pitch are these boots best suited for?

These boots are designed for firm ground (FG) natural grass pitches. Their stud configuration provides optimal grip and stability on drier, harder surfaces.

How do I break in the New Balance Tekela V5 boots?

Wear them for short periods during training sessions initially. Gentle stretching of the upper and collar may help them conform to your foot shape over time. Avoid aggressive flexing or bending.

Can these boots be used on artificial grass?

While they might offer some grip, the FG stud pattern is not ideal for artificial turf. Using them on artificial grass may lead to excessive stud pressure, reduced performance, and premature wear on the studs.

How do I clean the microfibre upper?

Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to wipe away dirt after use. Avoid abrasive cleaners or soaking the boots. Allow them to air dry naturally.

Are there different colorways or sizes available?

Yes, the New Balance Tekela V5 Team FG football boots are available in various colorways and a wide range of adult sizes. Please check the product listing for available options.

What is the benefit of the offset instep zone on the collar?

The offset design in the midfoot section of the knitted collar is intended to relieve pressure on the nerves located on the top of the foot, enhancing comfort during wear.

Does the use of recycled materials affect performance?

No, the use of recycled materials in the upper is integrated without compromising the boot's performance, responsiveness, or durability.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel too tight or cause pressure points.

Ensure laces are tied evenly and not too tight. If pressure persists on the instep, the offset collar design aims to alleviate this; allow a short break-in period.

Reduced traction on the pitch.

Check if the pitch is indeed firm ground. Clean any mud or debris from the studs. Ensure studs are not excessively worn down.

Difficulty manipulating the ball.

The deboss channels require a light touch. Ensure the upper is clean, as dirt can affect ball feel. Practice with the boots to adapt to their touch.

Material feels stiff after cleaning.

Avoid harsh cleaning agents. Ensure boots are dried naturally away from heat. Conditioning products suitable for synthetic materials may help if dryness persists, but use sparingly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent ball control due to textured upper and deboss channels.
  • Superior traction and stability for quick turns and agile movements on firm ground.
  • Comfortable and secure fit with the knitted collar and offset instep zone.
  • Lightweight construction for enhanced speed and agility.
  • Features sustainable materials in its construction.

Cons

  • Primarily designed for firm ground (FG) surfaces; may not perform optimally on wet or artificial pitches.
  • Microfibre upper might require careful cleaning to maintain its texture.
  • The specialized stud configuration is optimized for specific pitch conditions.
  • Lace closure requires manual adjustment for a consistent fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These boots feature a traditional lace closure system. Ensure laces are tied securely but comfortably to achieve the best lockdown without restricting circulation. The knitted collar should fit snugly around the ankle.

Compatibility: The Tekela V5 Team FG is designed specifically for firm ground (FG) natural grass pitches. Their stud configuration may not be suitable or may wear quickly on artificial turf, hard ground, or very wet/muddy conditions.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: After each use, remove excess dirt with a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid using harsh detergents or soaking the boots in water.
  2. Drying: Allow the 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 the boots in a cool, dry place, preferably in a boot bag, to protect them from dust and moisture.
  4. Maintenance: Periodically check the studs for wear and tear. Ensure the laces and collar remain in good condition.
