New Balance make a significant mark on the 2019/20 season as they launch their new-generation Tekela v2 boot alongside a fresh colour up for the lightweight Furon v5 silo. A fresh feel for the on-pitch control series, and one that packs a sleeker aesthetic.

The new Tekela v2 is aimed at the playmakers, and its undergone a redesign ahead of the new season to tweak not only its performance qualities, but also its overall feel. The single piece throat and collar and fully bonded no-sew seam technology have been introduced for superior midfoot lock-in and ultimate feel on the ball. Refined and reprogrammed K-Stitch dynamic embroidered bands then provide definitive forefoot lockdown and aggressive cutting stability. Subtle changes, but they also serve to clean up the look of the boot, and it doesn’t hurt that the “Deep Ozone Blue/Bayside Blue” colourway works so well too.

Underneath, the Tekela v2 has had some further retooling, with an all-new 3D engineered nylon outsole with micro-step stud tips offering lightweight pro performance and ultimate traction. Again, the colour execution here contributes to the appeal of the boot, with the matte-effect "Bayside Blue" of the heel transitioning to the "Deep Ozone Blue" in the forefoot. A smart little pack alongside the Furon v5 colour update.
