New Balance Tekela V5 Elite FG

Crafted for total control, the Tekela V5 puts you in charge of the game, offering the dynamic touch you need to dictate the play. The lightweight microfibre upper features deboss channels alongside nano-printed silicone grip elements, enabling precise manipulation of the ball while allowing your feet to flex naturally as you move.

At the ankle, the stretchy knitted collar provides a compressive fit for secure lockdown, while the midfoot section of the collar is slightly offset to relieve pressure on the nerves at the top of the foot. On the soleplate, Rim Stud Technology – those additional clear studs around the edge of the forefoot – returns to deliver improved stability and traction for turns. An Ortholite sockliner cushions ground impacts for comfort as you step away from opponents to play the decisive pass. As you can tell, NB have well and truly been in the lab for the Tekela V5, and that extends to sustainability too.

The upper on every model of the boot incorporates recycled content, part of the brand’s commitment to a healthier planet.
