Our take on the New Balance FuelCell Rebel V5

The FuelCell Rebel V5 is New Balance's lightweight daily trainer for runners who like a fast, bouncy feel. A PEBA/EVA FuelCell midsole gives lively energy return, and the engineered mesh upper with FantomFit overlays keeps the shoe light and secure. At roughly 226 g in a men's size 42, it is lighter than most daily trainers and closer to a tempo shoe. Runners who want plush, max-cushion comfort for long easy days should look at the Fresh Foam 1080 or the more cushioned SuperComp Trainer instead; the Rebel suits quicker sessions and runners who prefer ground feel.

Pros
  • Very light for a daily trainer
  • Lively PEBA-blend FuelCell foam with strong energy return
  • Breathable engineered mesh upper with secure FantomFit support
  • Added forefoot rubber improves outsole durability over earlier versions
  • Redesigned heel and tongue improve step-in comfort
  • 6 mm drop suits a range of strike patterns
Cons
  • Less cushioning than max-stack daily trainers
  • Thin-feeling underfoot on long easy runs
  • Not a stability shoe; no meaningful pronation support
  • Outsole rubber coverage is still modest for high-mileage use

Questions and answers

Is the Rebel V5 good for daily training?
Yes, for runners who like a light, firm ride. It works well for tempo and moderate daily miles. Runners who want plush cushioning for long easy days may prefer a max-cushion trainer.
How does it compare with the Rebel V4?
The V5 keeps the light FuelCell feel but adds forefoot rubber for durability and reworks the heel and tongue for comfort. The changes are refinements rather than a redesign.
Does it work for overpronators?
No. It is a neutral shoe with no stability posting or guide rails. Overpronators should look at a stability model such as the 860.
What is the heel-to-toe drop?
6 mm, which suits midfoot and forefoot strikers and runners who prefer a lower, more grounded feel.
Is the fit true to size?
Most runners take their usual New Balance size in a standard D width. The engineered mesh upper is fairly accommodating, so wide-footed runners may want to try the wide option.
Can it be used for racing?
It can handle a 5K or 10K, but it lacks the plate and stack of dedicated racers like the SuperComp Elite. It is better as a fast trainer.
Where is the New Balance FuelCell Rebel V5 cheapest?
At eBay, for $75.99, 48% under what the other stores charge, as of our latest check.
What do buyers say about the New Balance FuelCell Rebel V5?
Rated 4.7 out of 5 from 37 ratings.
Where can I buy the New Balance FuelCell Rebel V5?
14 stores we checked sell it, including Walmart, Scandinavian Outdoor, 365Rider, Shop Simon, Zappos.
