Best running shoes I have ever had and have tried ones double the price

Reviewed in the United States on July 24, 2020

These are my second pair of the New Balance fuel cell rebel shoes and I can’t say enough about them! Be sure to go up 1 full size as they run small and have that sock top engineering but they are the most lightweight, springy running shoes I have ever owned, not to mention super cute-so many running shoes can’t say that! The way the sole is engineered helps me run more stable and not on the outside of my feet like I used to. Would recommend to anyone, just be sure to size up!

Comfortable but not supportive in the way I would need

Reviewed in the United States on June 7, 2020

The shoes are light weight, have a nice color scheme. The size 9.5 fits me for exercise purposes (my regular shoe size is 8½-9). Overall they are comfortable and the sole is thick. The outside bottom seems very soft though, so not sure how much mileage they can take before wear will start to show.

My biggest gripe (and why I only gave 3 stars) is that the mesh feels too soft to give real support. Maybe my right leg is weird but have noticed that my right heel slides to the left and feels like is it is about to fall off a cliff (read: off the bottom). I would need a shoe with mesh and a sturdier "skeleton" for support or just sturdier mesh like I have in my Reebok cross fit shoes. Or that the heel area would have been designed better to keep the foot in place. Mesh is a great invention for shoes to cut down on weight but too much of the great thing defeats the purpose.

BEST SHOE I'VE EVER RUN IN!

I am really impressed! I ran in these, right out of the box, an easy 5 miler. I was running in Nike Zoom Fly SPs. After the first run in the Fuelcell Rebels, I threw the SPs in the closet. THIS is an EXCELLENT shoe. It feels like the SPs only more durable. I'm surprised because I'm like the princess and the pea when it comes to running shoes. I can find ANYTHING wrong with them. Not these. They are awesome. GET THEM!

I have tried many shoes before trying these. I have used prime try before buy and I liked them and so kept them to me

Really nice but size up

Reviewed in the United States on December 11, 2020

These are terrific! If you like Nike lunarlon, Zoom, or Pegasus lines then you’ll like these. Great arch and mid foot support without being bulky. The uppers are comfortable, but not as buttery as Flyknit. I deducted one star for sizing. I wear women’s 9 in sandals, 9.5 in dress shoes, and 10 in athletic shoes (my feet sweat and swell). I had to order a 10.5 in these - never been a 10.5 in my life.

great shoe

I've recently began jogging. I purchased these shoes and followed the advice of others to size up. I typically wear an 8 but got these in 8.5. They fit perfectly. They look nice and I like the shoe construction. It's a stretchy type of material almost like a sock instead of the standard hard outer and tongue. I have been wearing socks with them, too.

Nice and comfortable!

Most comfortable shoes! I’m not a runner so I don’t know how well they’ll hold up when ran in but they’re very snug and super comfortable. Definitely need a smaller narrow foot to wear them comfortably.

Exchanged shoes not what I expected

Reviewed in the United States on August 22, 2020

Verified Purchase

I ordered the ones pictured in the ad in size 8.5 as Brand NEW. They came and were too small- so I did an exchange for a 9. The shoes in the photos I shared are the ones I got - but had been previously worn and had dirt/ pebbles in the soles. I am a little upset that I didn’t get brand new shoes as my replacement which is what I paid for. ☹️ However, the fit of these new ones is great.

Not too bad

These definitely run a bit small. I would order half size up. They feel cheap so I wouldn’t spend more than 40$. Other than that they are nice for my indoor workouts ( I think long walks would cause blisters)
