New Balance FuelCell Rebel v5 Men’s Running Shoes
Light, springy, and built for pace.
The FuelCell Rebel v5 is a lightweight neutral running shoe made for runners who like to feel quick on their feet - whether it’s a relaxed run around the block or a threshold session with intent. The upgraded FuelCell midsole now combines PEBA and EVA foams for a softer, more energetic ride, helping you keep that bounce in your stride from the first km to the last.
It’s shaped for speed but versatile enough to wear every day. The new race-inspired mesh upper is breathable and supportive, while the wider geometric midsole platform adds confidence underfoot without slowing you down. This version also features a more comfortable heel fit, extra forefoot rubber for durability, and a smooth 6mm drop for a natural roll through each stride.
