Product Information

Full details

The New Balance FuelCell Rebel v5 is designed for neutral runners and fitness enthusiasts who prioritize a lightweight, high-energy return experience for both daily training and speed work. Featuring advanced FuelCell midsole foam, these trainers offer a snappy, responsive feel that excels during faster intervals; however, the highly performance-oriented design may feel too minimal for runners seeking significant overpronation support or maximum cushioning for ultra-distance recovery runs.

FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for marathons?

They are ideal for runners looking for a lightweight option for marathons, provided you are comfortable with a responsive, less cushioned ride over long distances.

Can I use these for gym workouts?

Yes, their lightweight and responsive nature makes them suitable for agility drills and treadmill work, though they are primarily optimized for running.

How do I choose the right size?

New Balance trainers generally fit true to size, but we recommend measuring your feet in the evening when they are slightly swollen for the most accurate fit.

Are they waterproof?

No, the mesh upper is designed for maximum breathability and will not repel water.

What is the primary material used in the upper?

The upper is constructed from performance-grade polyester mesh.

Troubleshooting

Feeling of slipping or lack of lockdown

Try a runner's loop (heel lock) lacing technique to secure the ankle and improve midfoot containment.

Accumulation of dirt in mesh upper

Use a soft-bristled brush to gently agitate the mesh dry before wiping with a damp cloth.

Foam feeling compressed after heavy use

Allow the shoes 24-48 hours to 'rest' between runs so the foam cells can fully rebound to their original shape.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Incredibly lightweight for faster turnover
  • Responsive energy return from PEBA-blend foam
  • Modern, high-visibility aesthetic
  • Breathable upper keeps feet cool during intense training

Cons

  • Limited stability features for those requiring overpronation correction
  • Minimalist feel may not be ideal for heavy heel strikers
  • Mesh material requires careful cleaning to maintain appearance

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your FuelCell Rebel v5 trainers remain in top condition, start by ensuring the correct fit for your foot shape, as the race-inspired upper is designed to be snug. For daily care, avoid machine washing or drying, as high temperatures can degrade the foam's integrity and damage the mesh fibers. Instead, clean the exterior using a soft brush to remove dust and a damp cloth with mild soap for stubborn stains. Air dry them in a shaded, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight. Replace the laces if fraying occurs to ensure the secure lockdown necessary for performance running.
