Experience Superior Performance with New Balance FuelCell Propel V5

Step up your running game with the New Balance Men's FuelCell Propel V5 Running Shoe. Designed for athletes who demand the perfect combination of comfort, responsiveness, and style, these running shoes bring innovative technology to your daily runs and competitive races. The striking Linen/NB Navy/Neo Flame colorway ensures you'll look as good as you perform, whether you're hitting the track, gym, or streets.

Cutting-Edge FuelCell Technology

At the heart of the Propel V5 is New Balance's revolutionary FuelCell midsole foam, featuring approximately 3% bio-based content derived from renewable resources. This sustainable approach helps reduce the carbon footprint while delivering exceptional performance. The FuelCell foam provides a propulsive feel that returns energy with every stride, helping drive you forward when you need that extra push during your run or workout.

Engineered for Performance

The Propel V5 incorporates a strategically placed TPU plate that enhances the propulsive feeling of each step. This technical component works in harmony with the FuelCell foam to create a responsive ride that helps maintain momentum throughout your run. Whether you're increasing speed for a sprint or maintaining a steady pace for distance, the engineered design supports your natural movement patterns.

Featuring a 6 mm drop, these shoes offer a balanced platform that works well for a variety of running styles and foot strikes. This moderate heel-to-toe drop promotes a natural running position while providing adequate cushioning for impact absorption during your runs.

Breathable and Lightweight Construction

The structured upper of the Propel V5 is designed with breathability and lightweight performance in mind. Engineered mesh and synthetic materials work together to create a shoe that feels like an extension of your foot, allowing air to circulate while keeping weight to a minimum. This thoughtful construction helps reduce fatigue during longer runs and hot weather conditions.

At just 1.16 pounds for a size 8, these shoes are exceptionally lightweight, allowing for quicker turnover and reduced energy expenditure with every step. The lightweight synthetic material throughout the upper maintains durability without sacrificing comfort or performance.

Versatile Style Meets Function

The Linen/NB Navy/Neo Flame color scheme offers a bold, modern aesthetic that transitions seamlessly from your workout to casual wear. The design reflects New Balance's commitment to creating footwear that performs as well as it looks, ensuring you never have to choose between style and functionality.

Available in size 8 M (medium width), the Propel V5 runs true to size, though runners with specific fit requirements should consult the sizing guide before purchase. The thoughtful design accommodates a range of foot shapes while maintaining the secure fit needed for confident running.
