Lightweight Speed with Versatile Cushioning
New Balance FuelCell Rebel v5 Men’s is built for runners who want a fast, responsive ride with a lightweight feel and smooth transitions. Whether you’re logging daily miles or picking up the pace for tempo runs, this neutral trainer delivers energy return and comfort in a sleek, race-inspired package.
The engineered mesh upper offers breathable support with a streamlined fit. FantomFit overlays provide lightweight structure, while a redesigned heel and tongue improve lockdown and step-in comfort. Bold colorblocking and sculpted lines give the Rebel v5 a modern, fast aesthetic.
Underfoot, the FuelCell midsole features a PEBA/EVA foam blend that delivers soft landings and propulsive toe-offs. With a 6 mm drop and increased stack height over the previous version, it offers more cushioning without sacrificing ground feel. The updated outsole includes added rubber at the forefoot for improved durability and traction during quick transitions.
At just 7.6 ounces (men’s size 9.5), the Rebel v5 is ideal for runners who want a non-plated shoe that feels fast and flexible. It’s a go-to option for everything from steady training to spontaneous speedwork.
