Cream and brown men's running shoes New Balance FuelCell Rebel v5 – springy FuelCell foam
Warm, earthy colours instead of neons: this version of the Rebel v5 combines a cream forefoot with a brown heel and a gold N logo, so it looks good both in training and every day in the city.
The FuelCell foam midsole, a blend of PEBA and EVA, is wider and higher than in the v4 and delivers an energetic, springy rebound. The mesh upper is reinforced with thin, welded FantomFit layers that support the foot without adding weight. There is more rubber under the forefoot, and the redesigned heel counter and tongue add comfort. Reflective details improve visibility after dark.
