Features
Get fired up by the New Balance FuelCell SuperComp Trainer v3’s combination of softness and speed.
This carbon-plated shoe gives you plenty of cushion, forward propulsion and bounce to rack up the miles and keep you moving forward.
During our New Balance FuelCell SuperComp Trainer v3 review, run tester Travis said, “The FuelCell cushioning is very bouncy and fun to run in, and the rocker geometry keeps my momentum moving forward. The carbon-fiber plate gives the midsole some much-needed rigidity that keeps the bouncy cushioning more responsive.”
Details:
- Upper: An engineered mesh upper feels sleek and smooth.
- Midsole: New Balance’s bouncy and cushioned FuelCell foam is combined with a carbon plate and Energy Arc geometry for an effortless experience on your runs.
- Outsole: There is enhanced traction in the forefoot and heel that can help on rainy runs, while New Balance’s Energy Arc geometry leaves an open outsole channel to give you plenty of propulsion.
