The New Balance FuelCell Rebel v4 is designed to elevate your everyday running experience. Its signature FuelCell foam midsole is the heart of its performance, offering a noticeably springy and 'propulsive' feel. This makes it an excellent choice for a variety of runs:
Daily Training: The cushioning is substantial enough to absorb impact over many miles, keeping your legs feeling fresher.
Tempo Runs & Intervals: The shoe's responsiveness shines during faster efforts, providing the energy return needed to pick up the pace and maintain speed.
Long Runs: While not a maximalist shoe, the FuelCell provides adequate protection and a lively feel for extended distances, helping to reduce fatigue.
The engineered mesh upper contributes to comfort and a secure fit, wrapping the foot without excessive bulk, crucial for both speed and long-distance comfort. The geometric midsole works in conjunction with the foam to create a stable yet dynamic platform, making transitions smooth and efficient. Runners with a neutral gait will appreciate the balanced support, allowing the foot to move naturally. Expect a shoe that encourages a faster cadence and provides a fun, energetic ride on roads and paved paths.
Your FuelCell Rebel v4 sneakers are ready to go right out of the box. Simply lace them up using the integrated lace-up closure to achieve a snug, comfortable fit. Ensure the gusseted tongue is centered to prevent rubbing.

Foot Type: Best suited for runners with a neutral gait who do not require additional stability control.
Activity: Optimized for running, including daily training, tempo runs, and long distances.
Terrain: Ideal for road running and track surfaces.
To ensure the longevity and performance of your New Balance FuelCell Rebel v4:
Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the engineered mesh upper with a soft cloth or sponge using mild soap and cool water. Avoid harsh chemicals or machine washing, as this can damage materials and adhesives.
Cleaning the Midsole/Outsole: Use a soft brush (like an old toothbrush) and mild soap to clean dirt and debris from the FuelCell foam and outsole.
Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, which can warp materials.
Storage: Store your shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Stuffing them with paper towels or newspaper can help maintain their shape and absorb residual moisture.
Rotation: If you run frequently, consider rotating between multiple pairs of running shoes to allow the cushioning to fully decompress and extend the lifespan of each pair.
