The FuelCell Rebel v5 is ideal for daily training, tempo runs, speed work, and race day efforts up to 10K or even half-marathon distances. Its lightweight and responsive design excels when you want to pick up the pace.
FuelCell is New Balance's proprietary foam technology, specifically a Peba blend in the Rebel v5, designed to deliver a highly responsive feel and maximum energy return, providing a propulsive sensation with each step.
For best results, gently wipe the mesh upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using a washing machine or harsh cleaning agents. Allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature, away from direct heat.

The provided product information does not specify if these shoes are available in wide fittings. New Balance typically offers wide options for some models, so it's recommended to check for specific 'wide' versions or consult a sizing guide if you require a wider fit. The listed version is standard fit.
The FuelCell Rebel v5 features a durable rubber outsole designed to provide reliable traction and withstand regular use during training and racing. Actual durability can vary based on individual running style, terrain, and mileage.
Adjust the lace tension. Experiment with different lacing techniques. The gusseted tongue should help maintain a consistent fit, but individual foot shapes vary. Ensure you have the correct size.
Ensure you are wearing appropriate running socks. Check for any hot spots or rubbing points in the shoe. Make sure the fit is correct – neither too tight nor too loose. Break in new shoes gradually before long runs.

The New Balance FuelCell Rebel v5 requires minimal 'setup' as it's ready to wear right out of the box. Simply lace them up using the traditional lace fastening system, ensuring a snug yet comfortable fit for your feet. The `gusseted tongue` is designed to stay in place, further contributing to a secure fit.
