FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for marathon training?
Yes, they are suitable for daily training and long-distance runs for runners who prefer a lightweight, responsive ride.
Can I use these for trail running?
These trainers are designed for road and track performance and do not have the rugged lug outsoles required for technical trail terrain.
How do I ensure the right fit?
New Balance typically runs true to size, but ensure you have a thumb's width of space at the front of the toe box for comfort during foot swelling on longer runs.
How should I clean the fabric?
Use a soft brush to remove loose dirt and a damp cloth with mild detergent to spot clean the upper.
Is this a neutral or stability shoe?
The Fuelcell Rebel V5 is a neutral trainer designed for runners who do not require significant overpronation correction.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slipping within the shoe
Adjust the lacing pattern to a 'runner's loop' or heel lock to increase security around the ankle.
Foam feels less responsive after many miles
Check the outsole for excessive wear; if the cushioning has lost its rebound, it may be time to cycle in a new pair of trainers for structural support.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longest lifespan for your Fuelcell Rebel V5 trainers, follow these maintenance tips: 1. Break-in Period: While comfortable out of the box, perform a few shorter runs to allow the midsole foam to adapt to your stride. 2. Cleaning: Hand wash with a mild soap and cold water. Remove the insoles separately to air dry. 3. Avoid Heat: Never place these trainers in a clothes dryer or near a direct heat source, as high heat can compromise the integrity of the foam cushioning. 4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight to prevent material degradation.
