Product Information

Full details

The New Balance FuelCell Rebel Trail is designed for adult male trail runners seeking a close-to-the-ground feel. Its key benefit is providing a balanced combination of traction, support, and durability for dynamic underfoot experiences. A potential caveat is that the 'close-to-the-ground' feel may not suit runners who prefer maximum cushioning. Key features include FuelCell foam for responsive cushioning, a durable trail-specific outsole for grip, and a supportive upper for stability on varied terrain.

FAQs

Who is the New Balance FuelCell Rebel Trail best suited for?

It's best for adult male trail runners who prefer a close-to-the-ground feel and want a balance of traction, support, and durability for dynamic trail running.

What type of trails can I use these shoes on?

These shoes are ideal for moderate to technical trails, including dirt paths, gravel, mud, and rocky sections. They offer good grip on varied surfaces.

How does the cushioning feel?

The FuelCell foam provides responsive and energetic cushioning, offering a dynamic underfoot experience. It aims for a close-to-the-ground feel, so it's less cushioned than maximalist shoes.

Are these shoes waterproof?

The product description does not specify waterproof capabilities. They are designed for trail running, which can involve wet conditions, but they are not inherently waterproof.

How should I clean my FuelCell Rebel Trail shoes?

Clean them with a damp cloth and mild soap if needed, after brushing off loose dirt. Always air dry them away from heat and never machine wash or tumble dry.

What is the main advantage of the FuelCell foam?

The main advantage is its energetic and propulsive feel, which helps runners feel quick and responsive on the trails.

Does this model come in other colors or sizes?

Yes, this model is available in other sizes (e.g., UK 10.5, 6.5, 8.5, 11, 10, 12.5, 9.5) and may be available in different colorways depending on the retailer.

Troubleshooting

Traction feels inconsistent

Ensure the outsole is clear of mud and debris. Check if the terrain matches the shoe's intended use.

Discomfort during long runs

Verify the shoe size and fit. Consider if the close-to-the-ground feel is suitable for your running style and the distance.

Upper feels too tight

Loosen the laces. If the issue persists, the shoe may not be the right fit for your foot shape.

Reduced responsiveness over time

The FuelCell foam may naturally break down with extensive use. Ensure shoes are not overused for the intended purpose.
