FAQs

Are these shoes suitable for marathons?

While highly responsive, they are primarily categorized as everyday trainers. Whether they suit a marathon depends on your personal preference for cushioning and support over long distances.

Can I use these for gym workouts?

Yes, their lightweight and responsive nature makes them suitable for agility-based gym work, though they are specifically optimized for road running.

How should I clean the white upper?

Use a gentle cloth dampened with warm water and mild detergent. Do not submerge the shoes or use harsh chemicals.

What is the primary material of the upper?

The upper is constructed from a lightweight, race-inspired polyester mesh.

Do these shoes offer arch support?

The shoe features a neutral design. If you require specific arch support, you may choose to swap the stock insole for an orthotic insert.

Troubleshooting

Feeling of slipping within the shoe

Ensure the laces are tensioned correctly through the eyelets or consider a runner's loop lacing technique for better heel lockdown.

Accumulation of debris in the mesh

Use a soft-bristled brush to gently sweep away loose dirt or stones after every run to maintain the breathability of the upper.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maximize the lifespan of your New Balance FuelCell Rebel v5, ensure you are wearing the correct size for your gait cycle; the 12.5 UK size provided is designed for a secure, athletic fit. For care, avoid machine washing or drying, which can damage the foam properties and adhesive bonds. Instead, remove surface dirt with a soft brush and clean the mesh upper using a damp cloth and mild soap. Always air-dry in a cool, shaded area away from direct heat sources to prevent the midsole foam from degrading or warping.
