FuelCell Rebel v5 Running Shoe brings lightweight speed and responsive cushion to every run
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"I love how light and energetic the Rebel v5 feels, especially on tempo runs and strides. The PEBA/EVA foam gives it serious bounce without feeling too soft, and the redesigned fit around the heel really improves comfort. It’s quick, breathable, and just plain fun to run in."
We want every run to feel smooth, fast, and effortless—and the New Balance FuelCell Rebel v5 Running Shoe helps us find that rhythm. Built for runners who crave energy and speed, the Rebel v5 combines a modern, race-inspired silhouette with the ultra-responsive FuelCell midsole, giving us a snappy, propulsive ride from start to finish. Whether we're logging long miles or dialing up the pace, this shoe keeps the momentum rolling.
The PEBA/EVA foam blend offers lightweight durability and rebound, while the redesigned heel and tongue add comfort and stability for faster miles. The breathable mesh upper keeps airflow high on warm days, and FantomFit overlays provide support without weighing us down. With upgraded outsole rubber for traction and durability, the Rebel v5 is a go-to for runs where we want to feel fast and focused.

Seems to be cut smaller
The shoe feels like it’s cut smaller. The shoe hurt to run in, and I have had the V4 that I just love!! Had to send the V5 back

Not great for wide feet
Too tight at the top, very narrow. Don’t use them if you have wide feet.
