Its innovative FuelCell midsole provides a propulsive feel, making it ideal for pushing your pace, though runners primarily focused on maximum cushioning for long, slow recovery runs might find it less suitable for that specific purpose.

The Rebel v5 is best suited for speed work, tempo runs, and race day (5K to half-marathon distances) due to its lightweight design and energy-returning FuelCell midsole.
FuelCell is New Balance's highest performing cushioning foam, often a Peba blend, designed to deliver a propulsive feel and maximize energy return to help you run faster.
FANTOMFIT refers to an ultralight, bonded upper construction that provides seamless support and breathability, ensuring a secure and comfortable fit without adding unnecessary weight.
The New Balance FuelCell Rebel v5 has a 6mm heel offset, with a 35mm stack height in the heel and 29mm in the forefoot.
Yes, you can use it for daily training, especially if you prefer a lighter, faster shoe for your everyday runs. However, for very long or slow recovery runs, you might find shoes with more maximal cushioning more comfortable.
Gently wipe the upper with a damp cloth and mild soap, then air dry them away from direct heat or sunlight. Avoid machine washing to preserve the shoe's materials and structure.
The FANTOMFIT upper provides a snug fit. While New Balance offers various widths in some models, this particular description does not specify available widths. If you have wide feet, it's recommended to try them on or check product specifications for wider options.
Re-lace the shoes, paying attention to pressure points. Try a looser lacing pattern over the midfoot. Ensure you are wearing appropriate running socks that are not too thick.
Utilize the top extra eyelets (heel lock lacing) to create a more secure fit around the ankle. Ensure socks are not too thin, which can contribute to movement.
Ensure your socks are clean, dry, and made from a moisture-wicking material. Check for any seams or irregularities inside the shoe that might be causing friction. If issues persist, consider trying different lacing techniques or thicker socks.
Running shoes have a finite lifespan. The FuelCell midsole's properties will degrade over time and mileage. Consider if it's time to replace the shoes, especially if you're using them for consistent speed work or races.
While the FANTOMFIT upper is durable, abrasive surfaces or incorrect cleaning can cause wear. Ensure proper care as outlined above. If wear seems excessive for the mileage, contact customer support.
The FuelCell Rebel v5 is designed for road running and track surfaces. Its construction is optimized for firm, even ground where its responsive cushioning and lightweight design can be fully utilized. It is generally suitable for neutral runners.
Proper care will extend the life and performance of your FuelCell Rebel v5:
