Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance from your New Balance FuelCell Rebel v5 trainers:
- Sizing: These shoes fit standard. If you intend to wear thicker performance socks, consider trying them on with those socks to ensure proper room in the toe box.
- Break-in: While they feel great out of the box, give them a few short runs to allow the foam to settle and the upper to conform to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft brush. If they get muddy, wipe them down with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid putting them in the washing machine or dryer, as the heat can degrade the foam midsole performance and the adhesive used in the construction.
- Air Drying: Always air dry your shoes in a cool, shaded area. Direct sunlight or extreme heat can warp the material and damage the upper mesh.
