New Balance Men's FuelCell Rebel v5 Running Shoes

About This Item

    What Our Experts Are Saying:

    ""The Rebel v5 is like your favorite running buddy (you know what I mean)—light on its feet, soft when you need it, and always ready for a smooth run. New Balance added more cushion this time and kept it light (under 8oz) , making it great for easy miles without losing that nimble feel. It’s got a breathable, secure upper with a fit that hugs without squeezing, and it feels wider in the toe box allowing my toes to breath, it nails daily training and tempo runs. Style-wise? It looks fast even standing still—especially with the slick new colorways (Angora is my favorite colorway) , and with cooler weather rolling in, now’s the perfect time to look cool and stay comfortable on your runs."" - Peter, Running Expert at DICK'S Sporting Goods Jacksonville, Florida

    The FuelCell Rebel v5 was built to look and feel fast. With its streamlined, race-inspired mesh upper and colorblocking designs, the resulting silhouette boasts a modern style that inspires, surprises, and confidently stands out ahead of the pack.

Great She’s But

As a diabetic I found the shoes, with larger toe box very very comfortable. The soles provided ease of walking especially around the metatarsal area. My only gripe is the small tongue. Every time I put on the shoes it was a battle to stop the tongue from disappearing. Constant stopping to pull tongue back.

Deforms Unexpectedly

When you shift your weight onto the forefoot of the sneakers, the material collapses inward and rubs against your big toe. It's very uncomfortable.

All Time Favorite Non-plated Shoe! Love It.

This is an amazing shoe. I bought 2 extra pairs in case they stop making them. My favorite non-plated shoe by a landslide.

Love Em

Going on my 2nd pair, they last pretty long for a heavy runner like myself (210lbs) and give me the cushion and response I need.

Narrow Toe Box

I loved the Rebel 4. The Rebel 5 has a much narrower toe box. I still need to put some more miles in these since I am still running in the 4s based on the toe box fit.

Easy On The Knees

I'm an old naval officer, 71 y's o. I still enjoy running the roads. I'm proud to say my knees still allow me to "pound the pavement". The FuelCell product has been my choice since introduced to me Christmas Day 2019 by my sons. The Rebel is "Easy On The Knees".
