Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your New Balance FuelCell Rebel v5, follow these care instructions:
- Break-in Period: While ready for use out of the box, perform a few shorter runs to allow the foam to adapt to your foot strike pattern.
- Cleaning: Hand wash with mild soap and cold water. Avoid putting them in the washing machine or dryer, as excessive heat can damage the midsole foam and adhesives.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent the rubber outsole and mesh upper from drying out or degrading.
- Insole Customization: If you use custom orthotics, simply pull out the factory-provided insole and replace it with your own to maintain the intended fit and feel.
