New Balance FuelCell SuperComp Elite v5

The New Balance FuelCell SuperComp Elite v5 is New Balance’s premium race-day supershoe, tuned for runners who want a fast, efficient feel from the opening mile through the late-race grind. A high-rebound FuelCell midsole made with 100% PEBA foam delivers a lively, cushioned platform, while the full-length carbon plate works with Energy Arc shaping to help store and return energy with every stride. The result is a smoother, snappier ride that feels purpose-built for long-distance road racing.
