FAQs
Are these boots suitable for artificial grass?
The Tekela series is generally designed for firm ground surfaces, but they can perform on artificial grass depending on the specific stud configuration. Check your local pitch requirements.
How do I determine my correct size?
New Balance sizing is generally true to standard UK sizes. If you prefer a tighter, more 'second-skin' feel for maximum control, choose your exact size.
Can I put these boots in the washing machine?
No, you should never machine wash football boots. The heat and agitation can destroy the bonding agents and damage the synthetic upper.
Are these unisex?
Yes, the Tekela series is designed as a unisex product suitable for all players regardless of gender.
What is the primary benefit of the Tekela series?
The primary benefit is superior ball control and the ability to execute precise movements in confined spaces.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight during the first wear
This is common with technical boots. Ensure you are wearing the appropriate thickness of football socks and allow 2-3 sessions for the upper material to relax.
Accumulation of dirt in the outsole
Use a specialized boot brush or a stiff nylon brush to gently clear debris from the stud area after every match to maintain traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Tekela boots last through the season, follow these essential care guidelines:
- Break-in: Wear your boots in low-intensity training sessions for the first 1-2 hours to allow the materials to mold to your feet.
- Cleaning: After use, remove loose mud or grass with a soft brush. Wipe the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid soaking the boots.
- Drying: Air dry the boots at room temperature. Never place them near a radiator or heater, as extreme heat can warp the materials and compromise the adhesive.
- Storage: Keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent premature aging of the synthetic components.
