Product Information

Full details

The New Balance Women's FuelCell Rebel v5 trainers are designed for adult female runners seeking a lightweight, versatile shoe for both daily miles and faster-paced training sessions, including race day preparation. Its key benefit is the responsive FuelCell midsole offering enhanced energy return for a speedy feel. A potential caveat is that its lightweight construction might offer less cushioning for ultra-long distances compared to more robust models. This shoe features a Peba blend FuelCell midsole for propulsion, a FANTOMFIT upper for breathable, bonded support, and a gusseted tongue for a secure fit.

FAQs

What type of runs are these trainers best suited for?

The FuelCell Rebel v5 is ideal for uptempo runs, speed work, interval training, daily miles, and even race day. They offer a responsive and lightweight feel for faster efforts.

How much cushioning do these shoes offer?

These trainers feature a Peba blend FuelCell midsole providing good energy return and a responsive ride. They have a stack height of 35mm in the heel and 29mm in the forefoot, offering a balance between cushioning and ground feel for speed.

Are these shoes suitable for marathon running?

While versatile, their lightweight and responsive nature is more geared towards speed. For marathon runners prioritizing maximum cushioning and support over very long distances, other models might be more suitable. However, they can be effective for marathoners who enjoy a faster feel or for specific speed-focused training.

What is the weight of the New Balance FuelCell Rebel v5?

The New Balance FuelCell Rebel v5 weighs approximately 180g (for a women's size).

How do I clean my FuelCell Rebel v5 trainers?

We recommend cleaning the trainers with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using a washing machine or dryer, as this can damage the shoe's structure and materials. Always air dry away from direct heat.

What is the heel-to-toe drop on these shoes?

The New Balance FuelCell Rebel v5 has a heel offset (drop) of 6mm.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is constructed with FANTOMFIT technology, which provides ultralight bonded support and breathability using an aerodynamic mesh.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight or loose

Adjust the lacing system. Ensure the gusseted tongue is properly aligned. If the fit remains uncomfortable, consider if this is the correct size for your foot shape.

Reduced responsiveness over time

Midsole cushioning can naturally decrease with extensive use. Ensure the shoes are not excessively worn. For optimal performance, consider replacing after 300-500 miles depending on usage and running style.

Upper material feels restrictive

The FANTOMFIT upper is designed for a secure fit. Ensure socks are of appropriate thickness. If the restriction persists after several runs, the shoe's structure may not suit your foot shape.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent energy return for a fast, propulsive feel.
  • Very lightweight construction minimizes fatigue.
  • Breathable upper keeps feet cool during runs.
  • Secure and adaptive fit due to FANTOMFIT and gusseted tongue.
  • Versatile for various training intensities and distances.

Cons

  • May offer less cushioning for runners prioritizing maximal impact protection on very long runs.
  • The lightweight design might not be durable enough for extremely rough terrain.
  • Focus on speed may mean less emphasis on extreme stability features.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These trainers are ready to wear out of the box. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size for optimal fit and performance. The lace-up closure allows for adjustment to your preferred level of snugness.

Compatibility: Designed primarily for road running and treadmill use. Not recommended for trail running due to the outsole tread pattern and lightweight construction.

Care:

  1. Cleaning: Gently clean the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid machine washing, as it can damage the materials and construction.
  2. Drying: Air dry the shoes completely away from direct heat sources (like radiators or sunlight). Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and maintain shape during drying.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures.
