FAQs

Is the FuelCell Rebel v5 suitable for marathon racing?

While highly responsive, it is primarily categorized as a trainer. It is excellent for tempo and speed work, though some runners prefer more specialized plated shoes for full marathons.

Does this shoe provide arch support?

This is a neutral shoe designed for natural gait. If you require significant arch support, you may need to insert aftermarket orthotics.

How should I clean the geometric mesh upper?

Use a soft brush and mild soapy water to gently scrub the mesh. Avoid soaking the shoes for long periods.

Is the sizing true to size?

New Balance trainers generally run true to size. If you prefer extra room in the toe box for longer runs, some users prefer sizing up by a half size.

Can I use these for gym workouts like weightlifting?

These shoes are designed for running and cardiovascular exercise. The responsive foam may feel unstable for heavy weightlifting where a firm, flat base is preferred.

Troubleshooting

Feeling 'bottomed out' or reduced cushion

Rotate your shoes to allow the foam 24-48 hours to recover its structure between sessions.

Slippage in the heel area

Utilize the 'runner's loop' or 'heel lock' lacing technique to increase tension around the ankle collar.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Exceptionally responsive energy return during fast runs
  • Breathable mesh upper keeps feet cool in warm conditions
  • Lightweight build reduces fatigue over longer training sessions
  • Secure heel and tongue padding provides immediate step-in comfort

Cons

  • Minimalist structure may lack sufficient support for overpronators
  • The ultra-light foam can wear down faster than dense stability shoes
  • Not suitable for rugged, technical trail terrain

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To get the most out of your FuelCell Rebel v5, ensure a proper fit that allows room for natural foot swelling during exercise. When cleaning, avoid using harsh chemicals or the washing machine. Instead, gently hand wash the polyester upper with mild soap and cold water, and remove the insoles to air dry in a shaded area away from direct heat sources, which can warp the sensitive foam midsoles.
