Product Information
Full details
The New Balance FuelCell Rebel v5 is designed for adult runners who demand a lightweight, versatile trainer that excels during both steady-state aerobic runs and high-intensity speed work. Featuring a responsive blend of PEBA and EVA foam in the midsole, it offers an energetic ride that encourages a faster pace. While it is exceptionally fast and comfortable for daily training, some runners may find its lightweight construction offers less structure than heavier stability-focused footwear.

FAQs
Is the New Balance FuelCell Rebel v5 suitable for marathons?
Yes, many runners find them comfortable for long-distance events, though they are specifically tuned for speed and responsiveness.
Does this shoe provide stability for flat feet?
This is a neutral shoe. If you require significant arch support or motion control, you may want to use a supportive insole.
How often should I replace these trainers?
Generally, running shoes should be replaced every 400 to 500 miles, depending on your running surface and gait.
Can I use these for gym workouts?
They are designed primarily for running, but their lightweight nature makes them suitable for light gym work or warm-ups.
Are they waterproof?
No, the mesh upper is designed for breathability, so they are not waterproof and will absorb water in heavy rain.
What is the primary difference in the midsole foam?
The Rebel v5 uses a blend of PEBA and EVA to balance the explosive energy return of PEBA with the stability and durability of EVA.
Troubleshooting
Feeling tightness in the midfoot area
Try adjusting the lacing pattern to a 'window lacing' style to relieve pressure across the bridge of your foot.
Foam feeling compressed after many miles
Rotate your shoes with a second pair to allow the foam to decompress fully between runs, which can extend the lifespan of the midsole.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Exceptionally lightweight feel for increased speed
- High energy return from the advanced foam midsole
- Breathable mesh upper keeps feet cool during intense efforts
- Modern, stylish aesthetic suitable for everyday wear
- Smooth transition from heel to toe during runs
Cons
- May lack the rigid support required by overpronators
- Lighter build means the cushioning may wear down faster than heavy-duty trainers
- Fit can feel quite snug due to the race-inspired design
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best performance, ensure you are wearing the correct UK size, as the Rebel v5 has a streamlined fit that runs true to size but provides a snug, performance-oriented feel. When lacing up, take time to adjust the tension across the midfoot to lock in your lockdown preference. To clean your trainers, avoid the washing machine. Instead, brush off loose dirt with a soft brush and clean the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators to preserve the integrity of the foam midsole and the fabric upper.
