New Balance FuelCell Rebel V5 Road Running Shoes

The New Balance Rebel v5 is a neutral running shoe designed for runners seeking a fast, light, and energetic option for both tempo and volume training. Building on the FuelCell platform, it combines low weight with a high-speed feel, suitable for interval sessions and sustained high-speed runs. The midsole blends PEBA and EVA to provide cushioning and a responsive take-off, while FuelCell foam supplies energy return for forward propulsion. With a stack height of 30 mm in the heel and 24 mm in the forefoot, it delivers a natural roll through the gait with a 6 mm drop to maintain stability. The upper is an ultra-light, race-inspired mesh with reinforcements for a snug, ventilated fit. The design emphasizes lightweight support and flexibility, supported by FantomFit for minimal weight and increased structure.
