Product Information
Full details
The New Balance FuelCell Rebel v5 is a versatile running trainer designed for adult runners who seek a balance between daily training comfort and high-speed responsiveness. Built with signature FuelCell foam, these shoes provide a propulsive, lightweight feel that excels during both long-distance maintenance runs and quick tempo sessions, though the lightweight construction may sacrifice some long-term durability compared to heavy-duty stability trainers.

FAQs
Is the FuelCell Rebel v5 suitable for flat feet?
This is a neutral trainer. If you require specific arch support or orthotics, consider using your own custom insoles.
Can I use these for gym workouts?
While excellent for running, their stack height is best suited for forward-motion activities rather than lateral gym training.
How should I clean the polyester upper?
Wipe with a damp cloth and air dry. Do not put them in a washing machine as this can damage the glue and foam structure.
Are these true to size?
Generally, yes. New Balance sizing is standard, though we recommend trying them on in the afternoon when feet are slightly swollen.
What is the primary material of the upper?
This specific variant uses a lightweight, breathable polyester-based mesh.
Troubleshooting
Feeling of slipping inside the shoe
Try a runner's loop (heel lock) lacing technique to better secure the ankle and midfoot.
Midsole foam feels less responsive after many miles
Foam compression is natural over time; rotate with another pair of shoes to allow the foam to decompress between runs.
Staining on the white mesh upper
Spot clean immediately with a damp cloth and a very small amount of mild detergent; avoid soaking the shoe.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best experience, wear your FuelCell Rebel v5 with technical running socks to maintain breathability and prevent friction. Ensure the laces are snug but not tight to allow for natural foot swelling during exercise. For care, avoid machine washing or drying. Clean the exterior mesh with a soft brush and mild soap if needed, and always allow the shoes to air dry away from direct heat sources to preserve the foam's integrity.
