The New Balance FuelCell Rebel v5 is a running shoe engineered for runners who prioritize speed, responsiveness, and a lightweight feel during their training and speed workouts. With its innovative FuelCell cushioning and streamlined design, it offers a dynamic ride on asphalt, though its focus on speed means it might not be the most cushioned option for ultra-long, slow-paced efforts.

The FuelCell Rebel v5 is ideal for neutral runners who seek a lightweight, responsive shoe for fast training, tempo runs, daily mileage, and speed workouts on asphalt surfaces.
While primarily designed for training and speed workouts, their lightweight and responsive nature makes them a suitable and popular option for racing, especially for distances ranging from 5k to half-marathon for many runners looking for a fast feel.
FuelCell is New Balance's highest performing cushioning foam, made from a blend of PEBA and EVA. It's engineered to deliver maximum energy return, providing a propulsive and dynamic feel to help you run faster and more efficiently.
The New Balance FuelCell Rebel v5 has a 6mm heel-to-toe drop, which encourages a more natural midfoot or forefoot strike pattern, favored by many faster runners.
Clean them by brushing off loose dirt and using a mild soap with cool water and a soft cloth for stains. Air dry away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not machine wash or dry them, as this can damage the materials.
While primarily designed for running, their comfortable and lightweight nature makes them perfectly suitable for casual walking, everyday wear, or light gym activities, offering comfort throughout the day.
The lifespan of running shoes varies by individual runner, mileage, and running style, but performance running shoes like the Rebel v5 typically perform optimally for 300-500 miles before the cushioning properties start to degrade significantly.
The outsole is designed for optimal traction on asphalt surfaces. While they perform well in various conditions, always exercise caution on wet or slippery surfaces, as grip can be reduced compared to dry conditions.
The streamlined mesh upper is designed for breathability. Ensure you are wearing appropriate moisture-wicking running socks, as cotton socks can trap moisture. If the issue persists, consider trying a different lacing pattern to relieve pressure points and improve air circulation.
Running shoe cushioning naturally compresses and loses its responsiveness over mileage. The FuelCell Rebel v5 is built for speed and a dynamic ride; consider replacing them after recommended mileage (typically 300-500 miles, depending on individual use, running style, and body weight) to maintain optimal performance and cushioning.
Check your lacing for overtightening or looseness; adjust as needed to find a comfortable balance. Ensure your running socks are smooth and not bunched up. If the shoes are new, allow a few runs for your feet to adapt to the shoe's fit. If discomfort persists, verify you have the correct shoe size and width, as an ill-fitting shoe can cause issues.
Ensure you select the correct UK size for a snug yet comfortable fit. The streamlined upper is designed to hug the foot without constriction, providing a secure feel. We recommend trying them on with your preferred running socks to ensure optimal comfort before your first run.
