[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Super comfortable with perfect fit, great traction, durable build, and excellent support for all-day wear. Reasonably priced & affordable!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great squish, very comfortable, but unfortunately my knee didnt like it. I have struggled with squishy shoes for the past couple years and was hoping that the NB Rebel would finally work for me at the v5. Sadly I think my anatomy wont work with the rebel lineup :/
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I took my new pair of NB fuelcell rebel v5 out today for a 22km run and it genuinely impressed me. The shoe felt responsive, the balance between cushioning and ground feel. My feet felt secure, just a consistent, stable stride.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just tried the New Balance FuelCell Rebel v5 (Men’s)—well, technically my partner did—and he absolutely loved them! From the moment he put them on, he said they felt incredibly lightweight and responsive. The design is super sleek, with that race-inspired mesh upper and bold midsole that really makes a statement. Definitely a standout shoe. The FuelCell midsole (a mix of PEBA and EVA foams) gives that perfect balance of cushion and bounce. He said it felt super energetic underfoot—great for both long runs and quick tempo sessions. It’s got that "ready to race but comfy enough to train in every day" vibe.
True to fit. I’ve run about 50 miles in these, only getting better with every step. The color and design are show stoppers, people can’t get enough. Running backroads in the early, pre-sun time frame, allows for me to really stand out with the reflectors and bright ‘Urgent Red’ color scheme. These are daily runner, fast-paced runs, I’ve maxed out by mile 8 ish, could really feel the difference. I’d stick with these for those shorter runs.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The FuelCell Rebel v5 are amazing. The earth Angora colorway looks amazing. The fuelcell feels very bouncy and soft and can be a decent training shoe for quick runs throughout different terrains. These fuelcells are great and the cost for these makes it even better
I bought a pair of Rebel 4’s and thought they were best shoes I’ve ever walked in. But then after walking in the Rebel 5’s. The 5’s are the best shoes I’ve ever walked in! NB has slightly softened the heel strike. NB also improved a more responsive transfer forward from heel to toe. The shoe maintains the roomy toe box that I look for in my running shoes. But have made the shoe aesthetically made the Rebel 5 more streamlined. Absolutely love NB’s addition of there new earth tone color angora. So in concluding I’d like to say way to go New Balance on the forward improvements you’ve made on the Rebels fuel cells with your v5 improved edition.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the colorway and the comfort of the shoes! The fit is great and is shapes well to my feet.
I love the comfort to my feet also it has a good support. Probably wear it everyday
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] More Comfortable the the v4, responsive, perfect for intervals and good tempos
