Too Much Squish

Far too much cushion. It’s marginally okay for running but awful for walking warmups. Like being on a cloud in a bad way

Great Shoe!

These shoes are great for a mid run distance. I use the fuel cell elites for race day so this is a very similar feel to prepare for race day.

Nothing Like The V4s

So disappointed in the rebel v5. I have worn and loved the rebel, and recently purchased the v5s. I’m not sure what was changed but these are nothing like the v4s. These shoes cause the worse pain in my feet, far more than just the normal breaking in discomfort that you expect. I have not been able to run more than 2 miles without needing to take them off and switch into my v4s. I am super disappointed in this new design

Light And Comfy

I usually have a hard time with running shoes because they don't have a wide enough toe box or feel super clunky but these have been so light and supportive.

Light, Fast And Responsive”

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been running with the FuelCell Rebel v5 for a few weeks and I absolutely love them. Super lightweight, responsive, and perfect for both daily training and speed sessions. The cushioning feels soft yet energetic, and the design is sleek and stylish. They give me the confidence to push harder while staying comfortable on longer runs. Definitely one of the best shoes for runners who want speed and comfort in one package.”
