FAQs

Is the FuelCell Rebel v5 a stability shoe?

No, it is a neutral trainer designed for speed and responsiveness rather than correcting pronation.

Can I replace the original insoles with my own orthotics?

Yes, the insoles are removable and compatible with most aftermarket orthotic inserts.

Are these shoes suitable for marathon racing?

While intended for speed and tempo, many runners use them for half-marathons and marathons if they prefer a responsive, lightweight ride over maximum cushioning.

How should I clean my New Balance trainers?

Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and a damp cloth with mild soap for surface stains. Always air dry.

Are the shoes visible at night?

Yes, they feature reflective details designed to increase visibility during low-light conditions.

Troubleshooting

Feeling pressure points on the top of the foot

Try a different lacing technique, such as the window lacing method, to relieve pressure on the bridge.

Insole sliding during runs

Ensure the insole is seated correctly and the underside is clean; if it persists, consider a thin adhesive strip or replacing the insole.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely lightweight construction for faster turnover
  • Highly responsive energy return from the FuelCell foam
  • Excellent breathability due to FantomFit mesh
  • Versatile enough for both daily tempo work and race days

Cons

  • Less cushioning for extreme long-distance recovery runs
  • Minimalist structural support compared to stability models
  • Geometric midsole design may feel unconventional to some runners

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before your first run, ensure the laces are adjusted to your specific foot shape using the multiple eyelet positions to secure the lockdown. The Rebel v5 is compatible with most standard aftermarket orthotics thanks to its removable insole. To maintain the life of your trainers, avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as this can degrade the foam properties and adhesive bonds. Instead, remove the insoles after wet runs, stuff the shoes with newspaper to absorb moisture, and let them air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Regularly clear small debris from the outsole rubber to ensure maximum grip.
