Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance from your New Balance FuelCell Rebel V5s, keep the following in mind:
- Fit and Lacing: Utilize the padded tongue and collar to lock in your heel. Adjust the laces to ensure a snug fit that doesn't constrict blood flow.
- Break-in Period: While the shoe is comfortable out of the box, a short 10-20 mile break-in period is recommended to allow the foam to adapt to your foot strike pattern.
- Cleaning: Wipe away dirt with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh detergents, as these can degrade the mesh material and the adhesive integrity of the outsole.
- Storage: Always store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent premature aging of the foam midsole.
