FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for marathon racing?

Yes, many runners find the FuelCell Rebel v5 effective for long-distance racing due to its lightweight and high-energy return, provided you prefer a more agile, neutral shoe.

How do I determine the right size?

This model is true to size, but standard practice is to size up by half a size if you have wider feet or prefer extra room for long-run toe swelling.

Can I use these for cross-training?

While primarily a running shoe, the stable geometric base allows for light gym work; however, it is not designed for heavy lateral-load movements like weightlifting.

How long should these shoes last?

Typically, performance running shoes like these last between 300 and 500 miles, depending on your running surface and biomechanics.

Are the insoles removable?

Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if required.

Troubleshooting

Foot slipping inside the shoe

Adjust the lacing pattern using the top eyelet to create a 'runner's loop' for a more secure heel lock.

Midsole feeling less responsive

Midsole foam can compress over time; ensure you rotate your shoes to allow the foam cells to recover between sessions.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely lightweight for faster turnover
  • High energy return from FuelCell foam
  • Breathable mesh upper keeps feet cool
  • Stylish geometric aesthetic

Cons

  • Less stability than structured support shoes
  • Minimalist design may not suit all foot types
  • Best suited for road use rather than trails

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your trainers, follow these guidelines:

  1. Fit: Ensure you have a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe to account for foot swelling during exercise.
  2. Cleaning: Remove surface dirt with a soft brush. Use a damp cloth with mild soap for localized stains. Avoid machine washing or drying, as high heat can damage the foam midsole.
  3. Drying: Air dry naturally in a cool, shaded area away from direct heat sources like radiators to maintain the structural integrity of the upper and midsole.
  4. Storage: Store in a dry, ventilated area to prevent odors and material breakdown.
