Product Information

Full details

The New Balance FuelCell SuperComp Pacer v2 is designed for female runners seeking a lightweight, responsive shoe for racing from 5k up to marathon distances. Its key benefit is the combination of FuelCell foam and a carbon fiber plate for a propulsive, snappy ride that enhances speed. A potential caveat is its low stack height, which may offer less cushioning for those accustomed to more padded shoes.

FAQs

What distances are these shoes best for?

They are ideal for distances from 5k up to marathon length, designed for racing and fast-paced running.

How does the Energy Arc technology work?

Energy Arc combines a cambered carbon fibre plate with a heel cut-out. This allows the FuelCell foam to deform more, enhancing the plate's range of motion and providing a propulsive feel.

Are these suitable for everyday training?

While they can be used for speed work in training, their lightweight and low-stack design is optimized for racing. For daily mileage, a more cushioned shoe might be preferred for longevity and comfort.

What is the weight of the FuelCell SuperComp Pacer v2?

The shoe weighs approximately 157 grams (5.5 oz), making it very lightweight.

How do I clean my racing flats?

Clean with a soft brush for dry debris and a damp cloth with mild soap and cold water for tougher dirt. Avoid machine washing or full submersion.

Can I use these shoes if I overpronate?

These are neutral racing shoes. They do not offer specific stability features for overpronation. Runners needing stability should consider shoes designed for that purpose.

What is the primary benefit of the low stack height?

The low stack height contributes to a snappy ground feel, which helps runners feel faster and more connected to the road.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Loosen the laces and re-tie, ensuring even pressure. If still too tight, consider if the size is appropriate for your foot.

Lack of cushioning during long runs

This shoe features a low stack height for ground feel; consider alternating with a more cushioned shoe for daily training or very long endurance efforts if significant cushioning is preferred.

Upper feels flimsy

The engineered mesh is designed to be lightweight and breathable. Ensure laces are adjusted correctly for midfoot support.

Carbon plate feels stiff

The plate is designed to be stiff for propulsion. It works in conjunction with the FuelCell foam. A break-in period might be needed for the foam to adapt.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides a propulsive and responsive ride ideal for racing.
  • Lightweight design enhances the feeling of speed.
  • Engineered mesh upper offers excellent breathability.
  • Carbon fiber plate technology aids in forward momentum.
  • Secure fit with good heel lockdown.

Cons

  • Low stack height may offer limited cushioning for some runners.
  • Best suited for road racing, less ideal for trails or casual wear.
  • Single-layer upper might not provide extensive support for heavier runners.
  • May require a break-in period for optimal comfort.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready-to-wear racing shoes. Ensure a proper fit by lacing them securely using the adjustable lace closure. The fit should be snug but not constricting, especially around the heel and midfoot. Test the fit before your first race.

Compatibility: Designed primarily for road running and racing. They are compatible with most standard running socks. Not recommended for trail running or very wet conditions due to the lightweight upper and outsole design.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and mud. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth with mild soap and cold water. Avoid machine washing or submerging the shoes in water.
  2. Drying: Air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources. Do not place them in a dryer or near radiators, as this can damage the materials.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
