These Rebels are sharp and have a predictable fit (tho a little snug on width > go Wide if in doubt - I normally wear Regular Width in the 880, but needed Wide on the Rebel). They have a nice loft, are feather light, and are fair value. Wifeās fit was Regular as narrower foot. š

Zero support

No, I don't recommend this
The shoes looked good but they were not for me. They didnāt offer me the support I needed and they were cheaply made.

When my Rebel v4 shoes wore out, I got this v5 and it is great!!! Same light weight, support and comfort. I love this shoe for my treadmill johs and hikes. Very pleased and wear these almost every day.

Fuel cell rebel v5
Originally posted on New Balance US
Good light weight, with a decent amount of cousin and yet responsive. The wide size has been great for my one foot that has a bunion. The laces are slightly too short to hold a double knot which annoys me as I always need a double or they come undone. Holding up well with 40-50 miles per week.

I feel like I am walking on clouds. For someone who has wide feet with no arch, these are amazing.

I've been wearing these during speed sessions or fast-pace treadmill runs, and I love them! They're super lightweight, stable, and sturdy on my body. I've always been a New Balance gal and I won't stop purchasing from them!

FuelCell is the best sneaker for my foot. This is may third pair and I will not use any other sneaker. I have a little bit of a wide foot and there are no issues.

The best neutral, breathable shoe I've owned.

Hands down the best running shoe I've owned. I've been Brooks through and through, I am a neutral runner with some knee problems, and these have been the least achy on my legs. They're light they're breathable and pretty. I do however wish that the tread lasted a little longer but that's the compromise having a light weight smooth shoe. Not going back to Brooks.

Quick, light shoe that I use for my short daily workouts that range anywhere from 15-45 minutes of running time. The rest of my hour is filled with lifting and sometimes rowing and these aren't squishy or unstable feeling like many other shoes.

Just right!

Fit is perfect for my narrow-ish foot. Super lightweight with soft, bouncy cushion while having great responsiveness. This is my first time running in New Balance, I had to switch from previous shoe because didnāt like the changes to the design/material. Tried several pairs before finding the NB Rebel v5, and so far I am very happy. Training for my fist 50k and using these for road running days.

Good product..But some worries.

Good support, when youāre taking off the shoe itās best to NOT step on the back of the foam because itāll damage easily. Ankle support is 7/10 not the best but not super noticeable. Overall, I move way farther with these than I have most sneakers.

Perfect fit. Super comfy. I have a wide foot and they are amazing.

Comfy as always, but not the color I was hoping.
Originally posted on New Balance US
I consistently love my NBs. I was hoping this color was more like the aubergine in the pictures, but it presents more as a black sneaker. Disappointing aesthetically because of my expectation, but still a great shoe!

Good but Concerned

I am on my fourth pair, and by all accounts I do like this shoe for my daily walks. I do about 50 miles a week. However, the pair i just bought seem to have a construction issue. Both with the soul very spongy and breaking down fast. In addition the tongues keep moving and causing rub marks on my foot. This is the first time in 20 years I have had a New Balance issue, but a wee bit concerned since I have only worn them for a month, and paid $$$.

Love them!!!!
