Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting the most out of your New Balance FuelCell Rebel trainers involves proper fitting and routine maintenance. Ensure the size is checked against standard UK sizing to allow for enough room in the toe box. For care, keep the shoes away from heavy mud and standing water to preserve the integrity of the polyester mesh. To clean, use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt and wipe down the soles with a damp cloth. Always air-dry the shoes in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources to prevent material damage or deformation.
