[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I deal with tightness in my feet. This sneaker definitely provided support to my arch which is low. The fabric feels breathable. I would feel comfortable racing, running on a outdoor track, and running long distance in these sneakers. Would love to feel a little more cushion in the area circling the ankle.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Rebel V5 are a super comfortable and stylish shoe. They go with every gym fit I own! The Fuel Cell technology gives me a boost during my shorter runs and the extra cushioning gives me the stability and comfort I need on my longer runs. I love this shoe!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Took my new FuelCell Rebels on a 5K run in Central Park and loved them. Supportive, smooth, and stylish. With marathon training around the corner, these Rebels are the perfect start.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Did a 4 mile run . They supported my high arch I would run all my races with these sneakers so comfortable
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m usually not a fan of when the tongue of the sneaker is attached and can’t be moved around. I have very high arches and need space for my arch that pops up. But it was so easy to adjust and i didn’t feel pressure on top of my foot. The sneaker felt lightweight and my toes were able to wiggle. I have a neuroma and having space for my foot with no compression is important to me. I felt like I was floating in the air running in these. I was a little nervous they would run small, but with the right sock there was more than enough space. I recommend the Pro Run Quarter Socks from NB. They were the perfect fit for these running sneakers.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was surprisingly impressed by these! I never thought I would be running in New Balance, but they were really supportive, light and comfortable. Super bouncy too! I felt as comfortable in these as I do in my Hoka’s!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Trying these New Balance shoes before their official release was an incredible honor. They combine comfort, bounce, and a beautiful design — perfect for both training and everyday wear. I felt supported, energized, and stylish with every step. I’m truly grateful for the opportunity to wear them before they hit the market. The bounce is addictive, the comfort is unmatched, and they look amazing. These shoes not only supported my marathon training — they made me feel faster and more confident. Thank you, New Balance, for this early experience. I’m excited to keep running strong with them.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As someone who’s a fan of the V4s, I can confidently say the V5s are even more responsive, with an incredibly comfortable feel. I love using these in my rotation for 5Ks and speed workouts—they’re lightweight yet durable, very flexible, and offer excellent energy return.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this shoe!! Similar to the V4, they are light and responsive! I like that the tongue is longer and more padded and the heel box is more padded. There is a thicker rubber forefoot and reworked tread for better grip. Overall, a great speed shoe and daily trainer.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great shoes for running! The shoes fit well and are very lightweight. Cushion is comfortable and provides some support and bounce. The colour is nice too!
