New Balance FuelCell Propel v5: Spring-Loaded Comfort for Every Run

The New Balance FuelCell Propel v5 is the kind of shoe that works hard so you don’t have to. Built to handle everything from easy jogs to speedier workouts, this daily trainer delivers a lively, cushioned ride for runners of all levels — all at a price that makes high-performance feel more accessible than ever.

At the heart of the Propel v5 is FuelCell foam, a high-energy midsole compound that offers a soft yet springy underfoot experience. To enhance that responsiveness, a TPU plate is embedded into the midsole, providing a smooth heel-to-toe transition and a snappy, propulsive feel that makes every stride more efficient. A layer of Bio EVA complements the setup, adding environmentally conscious cushioning for balanced support on longer runs.

The engineered synthetic mesh upper is lightweight, breathable, and soft to the touch, wrapping your foot securely without restriction. Updated lacing ensures improved lockdown, and the rubber outsole offers reliable durability for daily training mileage.

Whether you're just starting your running journey or looking for a dependable workhorse for your training schedule, the FuelCell Propel v5 is a spring-loaded, do-it-all shoe that brings performance and comfort together with ease.

Best For

• Runners looking for a versatile, neutral daily trainer with responsive cushioning
