I understand the heel issue but honestly breaking them in and chasing the insole to a more thinner one helped solve the issue for me.
Fair enough mate!
I definitely had heel issues out of box and just kept working the material to soften it up. Bending it back squishing it. Now it’s no issue and I love it.
'Definitely doesn't make the player good' 😂😂
Bro you got great technique, we all mess up at a time
I appreciate you mate 😂
I was just watching the review and this dropped timings perfect as always 💚💚
Love it mate 🔥
Im surprised you went half a size up. I went true to size and i have a narrow heel, medium to wide midfoot and a wide toe box.
I did feel a squeeze of pressure in the midfoot that would cramp me up after an hour of play when i was breaking them in. However that went away after the three uses. Now they feel solid, very glove fit, comfy, NB did a great job with the heel padding.
Really underrated pair.
That's good to hear mate! I go 1/2 size up for the length, which fits about 1/4-1/2 size small
@@NoahCavanaughThe length for me feels small as well on the Tekela V4 Pro Laceless gold. I want the v4+ lime colorway low tops, but not sure if it’s the same sizing.
Hey Noah, I’m looking for an AG boot to get and considering between these and the furon (ag) but the only AG new balance makes in the tekela are laceless. Do you think the laceless models offer enough lockdown for someone with ankle sprain issues? Or do you think it’s better to go with the furon?
I'd go for the Furon bro!
Hello can you tell me between this tekela and Gx 2 AG soleplate wich model has more volume and Space in the toebox? And again thank you for your job ❤ !
Tekela I reckon!
I tried my normal size 8 1/2 us and had heal issues, completely disappeared when I went 1/2 size up. Great boot!
Love to hear it!
Every other brand should learn a stud pattern from this boot. Especially inside part of forefoot. Other patterns is slipery when one lean boots.
Definitely mate!
Let’s gooo another play test!🔥
🔥
Dear Noah, I've noticed that these boots need half size up. The previous model (copper) is also half size up or true ti size? The new model haven't arrived yet and the copper model is 40% off
That's why I recommend that sizing in all my Tekela videos 🤝 The copper ones should be up 1/2 size as well.
So I know they’re not exactly apples to apples, but given the choice between tekela 4+ and a Mizuno Morelia neo IV (regular or beta, elite of MIJ), which would you prefer? I’ve shortlisted these for my next boot based on following your vids over the past half year or so. I know you like some Asics models too that compare more to Mizunos but I’m still leaning toward Mizuno. Thoughts?
Both are great options mate, but the most important thing is what FITS you the best!
Hey Noah, I was wondering how does tekela toebox compare to furon? I got tekela and love them, but feel like the toebox is too round or too large in a way for my taste. Would you say they are similar or is there a significant enough difference in furon?
Tekelas are a bit more round and higher volume. You might find the Furon to be perfect!
I got some reviews saying to go 1/2 up and others that say to stick to the size i usually wear. What is you opinnion on the sizing if my feet aren't really wide? Love the content ❤, definetly copping theese
Hi mate, I have no clue what boots you're talking about 😂
@@NoahCavanaugh theese ones from the review the blue Tekela v4+
How's this boot on AG? Most pitches here are AG now
Good mate! Watch the review!
Hey man, I've been eyeing mizuno neo 4 beta elites for 2 weeks now, but during the last couple days the tekelas have come up to me. I was wondering, which ones would you recommend and why?
Those are awesome mate! Both excellent choices. The Tekelas are wider for sure, so just depends what shape foot you have
Tekela in true AG plate only available in laceless model.
Such a bummer
How can i fix the heel issue can someone help me?
Do you have the right sizing? 🤔
Hello noah...Furon v7+ or tekela v4+ based on ur preference
I fit in both! I prefer the Furon for the shape and performance characteristics though!
@@NoahCavanaugh well thanks mate
But just ordered tekela v4+ just now 😁
Can you please suggest me the best boot for wide feet
Tekela or an all leather boot
Can you make an video on Puma future 7 ultimate play test
Already on the way
Can u do a review on the Mizuno alpha elite
..... Already several videos up on the channel already mate
@@NoahCavanaugh aren’t those the alpha made in japan
Like you said if and when you get your hands on a Wide version of these and the furons, a sizing review on them would be greatly appreciated. 442 v2 Pro Wide size 9 work great for me.
I reckon it would be the same mate, 9.5 US. The width changes but the length is still a 9.5 for me
Just found your channel recently, already a big fan.
Are these the same as the Tekela Magique v4+???
Thank you mate! And no, these are the top end version, the Magique is the second tier model I believe
Can it replaces hypervenom3, or GX or GX2 is chosen?
They're good mate!
Great video
Will you be making a video on the laceless versions?
Maybe!
Hey noah whats up? Lil question mate, what percentage of lockdown would i get from laceless tekelas taking laced tekelas as 100% lockdown?
65-70%
@@NoahCavanaugh oh. That is a pretty big difference. Are they more comfortable tho? As they would have a more relaxed fit?
Hey again, i just want to ask when is the 1 month review of these going to come out? I was wondering how durable are they on the AG pitches as I'm aware that on some boots the upper can rip, or part away from the outsole when playing on AG so I wanted to know if it would be the case with the tekelas
Soon ish!
Hey guys I got both the normal and the wide version. I have wide feet and like to feel my toes spread out in my shoes instead of bunched up together. Anyways, I can confirm 100% the wide version is extremely more comfortable and easy going for my feet. Even though the normal width isn’t bad the wide version is just so well fitting for wide feet that I had to leave my experience written here for others.
That's so great to hear mate! Thanks for sharing!
Love your content, it’s super useful. I’d be interested to know what your go to match boot is, if you had to pick just one boot. I’ve just picked up the Neo 4 Japan and the Adler Horenso and Yatagarashu.
I’ve short listed Neo 4s and tekela 4+ for my next boot, but I’ve been curious about Adler Yatagarashu too. How have you liked both the neo and the Adler boots??
For me it’s really close, the Adler boots are full leather and extremely comfortable but the Neo fit and comfort is perfect. The Neo edged it for me, but there wasn’t much in it. In fact the Horenso was a close second. For context I’ve tried everything, latest predators, crazy fast plus and full Nike ranges. The Neo are the best to date.
Just add, I went a whole size down in the Neo. My feet are 27.1cm UK SIZE 9 and I went for an 8. For me this was a perfect tight fit before breaking them in.
@@rodufccarpecatchersclan1146 Thanks for taking the time to reply. Very helpful feedback. If I may ask a follow up question, have you tested or played in a Neo Beta? If so, I’m curious about your take on non-beta vs beta Neo’s. Thanks.
Those are great models mate!
I don’t love theAG plate NB uses, while it’s very safe, it’s very flexible and not very responsive.
Fair enough!
Hi, ty for video. What would you take for yourself tekela v4 or forons and why?
Furons by a tiny bit because I like the way they feel when striking the ball over the Tekela
Tekelas have low key become my #1 pick. The comprarison to the magistas is spot on. I balled out in HS with the magistas and these feel probably even better. I do have the standard V4 & went true to size and got them just right.
Class mate! They're a great pick!
Are you playing for a Professional Team at the moment now you're in Melbourne? And if so do you plan on making day in the life videos, training and match videos etc?
I'm not mate, so probably no match videos, but maybe a few DITL or training videos!
Tekela v4 + or furon v7+
Furon for me! Both are great though
I’m struggling to find the right cleats due to Achilles tendinosis and Haglund’s deformity. The compression of the Phantom GX2s aggravated my Achilles (too much compression), and while the Copa Pure 2.1 Elite and 442 v2 Pro were easier on my Achilles, their heels weren't padded enough for my Haglund's. My broken-in Maestri CTR360 III cleats are great due to their flexibility, but I’m finding it tough to match that comfort in the heel. Do you think the Tekela V4 Pro might be worth trying, or do you have other recos? We have nearly the exact same foot shape so I appreciate your thoughts!
I'd probably try the Asics boots mate 🔥
Man, NB have really stepped up their game in the past few years. Great vid!
Unreal bro!
They’ve come a long way. Now if they’d just stop plastering NEW BALANCE on the 442s & the giant winged NB logo on some models, they’d be golden. Big N looks fine. Rest is too much, makes them look bad.
Thinking about buying the V4 low or Tiempo Legend Elite. Both are on sale for 150€. Or take the bugdget choice and go with the Morelio Neo IV pro for 100€. Any recommendations?
Whichever FITS you the best 😎
Enjoyed the review! Question for you. What compression shorts do you wear for training and games? I’m looking for some that don’t slide up my thighs 😅
Usually the NikePro ones! These: amzn.to/3VbH7M9
Hey Noah!
I’ve a flat foot and wide feet, do you reckon to go true to size or up half size for better fit?
Thank you!
1/2 size up mate!
Hey Noah, how's the widht and volume on these compared to the accuracy .1 low's? I have fairly wide feet and currently have those preds but am in need of new boots and none of the stores near me carry them so online shopping will have to do 😅
Similar mate! They're great for wide feet, just remember to go up 1/2 size for the length compared to the preds
Hey Noah! Do you think these boots would be good for artificial ground/turf or should I try and find artificial ground boots
I play on AG with these and have zero issues, but that's up to you mate
Watching your reviews I know to try go up half a size unfortunately I have boat feet! Uk 11 and for some reason there is none in SG which is what I need at the minute 😮💨 gutted really wanted to try a pair
Dang! Bummer to hear that mate
New Balance Australia doesn't import the 2Es unfortunately 😢
Dang! Such a bummer...
Such a badass video!! Motivated me to get up & go train! lol would really like to see the laceless version!!
Thanks mate!! Enjoy
I have to buy a new pair of fg shoes, my option are copa pure.1 and predator accuracy.1 .
Wich one do you sugggest me?
Whichever FITs you the best mate 🤝
Hi Noah,
If i can get the tekela v4 low at a discounted price is it worth it, or is it worth paying extra for the v4+, great video as per!
I'd go for the discounted v4 for now! Remember to go up 1/2 size regardless of what you choose though 🤝
It really depends on the person, for me Furon lockdown was much worse than Tekela V4 Low.
Fair enough mate!
Hey mate I wanted a boot that’s good for shooting and passing - what’s the best 3 options ?
As far as shooting feel goes, I'd pick something out of this list SO LONG AS IT FITS YOU: Furon v7+, Predator Elite, GX2
I just bought 442 pro true to size and they fit small
Maybe 1/2 size up then!
Hi noah, may i know what gear you use for your video cam and microphone?
Sony A7S3 and a Sony mic
should I buy these or the discounted v4 pro?
Either are great mate!
Hi, would the upper provide enough protection for Sunday league as I am a winger but would like at least some protection??
Probably not. I don't often fuss with protection, FIT is the most important thing. That being said if you absolutely must have better protection I'd go with a leather model
@@NoahCavanaugh I currently have copa pure but find my self having to tie the laces way too tight to get the lockdown I would like. This kills my feet.
Nice quotes
🫡
The Tekelas look like they have conical studs, would you say these are gonna be good to use on AG pitches long term?
They do 😂 and did you watch the video at all??
I skipped through ngl but thanks for the answer haha@@NoahCavanaugh
@@NoahCavanaughhhh oh man
love these ❤️🔥
Me too! So good
How long should a good pair of boots last? I know that is a somewhat loaded question but for middle school to high school player with one to two games a week plus practices, what are your thoughts?
Depends on how often you wear them and on what surface! 🤝 I'd say on average 8-12 months per pair for 3-4x playing a week, 6-9 months 5-6x week
