FAQs

What type of pitch are these boots best for?

The New Balance Tekela Team Low Jnr FG V5 boots are designed for Firm Ground (FG) pitches, which are typically natural, dry grass surfaces.

How should I clean the suede material?

Use a soft brush or a slightly damp cloth to remove dirt. For tougher stains, use a cleaner specifically designed for suede, following its instructions carefully.

Are these boots suitable for artificial grass?

While they might offer some traction, FG boots are not optimized for artificial grass. Using them on artificial surfaces may lead to increased wear and reduced performance. It's recommended to use boots specifically designed for artificial turf if that is your primary playing surface.

How do I ensure a good fit?

Ensure the boots fit snugly around your foot without being uncomfortable. There should be minimal space at the toe, and your heel should feel secure. Trying them on before purchasing is highly recommended.

What does 'Tekela: Crafted for Control' mean?

This tagline emphasizes the design philosophy behind the Tekela series, focusing on providing players with superior ball control, touch, and the ability to manipulate the game with precision.

Is this model available in other colors?

The Tekela series often comes in various colorways. While this guide focuses on the Pink/Brown model, other color options may be available depending on the season and retailer.

What is the warranty period for these boots?

Warranty information can vary by retailer and region. It is best to check the specific warranty terms provided by the place of purchase.

Troubleshooting

Boots feel too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie them, ensuring they are snug but not overly restrictive. If the issue persists, consider if the size is appropriate or if the material needs a short break-in period.

Traction is poor on the pitch

Ensure the FG studs are clean and free from debris. Confirm that the pitch is firm and dry, as these boots are optimized for such conditions. If the pitch is wet or muddy, these boots may not provide adequate grip.

Suede material looks worn or stained

Use a suede brush to gently restore the nap. For stains, spot clean with a specialized suede cleaner and a damp cloth, following the product's instructions. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Laces fraying or breaking

Replace the laces with a similar length and type. It's advisable to keep a spare pair of laces for quick replacement.

Cons

  • FG studs are best suited for firm, dry ground and may not perform well in wet or muddy conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These football boots are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure the laces are tied securely for a proper fit before stepping onto the pitch.

Compatibility: The Firm Ground (FG) soleplate is designed for optimal performance on natural, dry grass pitches. Use on artificial turf or very wet/muddy surfaces may reduce performance and increase wear.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: After use, remove excess dirt with a soft brush or damp cloth. Avoid soaking the boots in water.
  2. Drying: Air dry the boots naturally away from direct heat sources. Stuffing with newspaper can help absorb moisture and retain shape.
  3. Material Care: For the suede, use a suede brush to maintain texture and remove dry dirt. For stains, consult specialized suede cleaners. Store in a cool, dry place.
