New Balance FuelCell SuperComp Elite Men's v5 D Width - BOYSENBERRY with AFTERGLOW
A premium carbon‑plated racing shoe built for speed, efficiency, and your best race‑day performance.
The men’s New Balance FuelCell SuperComp Elite v5 in Boysenberry with Afterglow brings a bold, expressive look to NB’s flagship marathon‑distance racing shoe. The Boysenberry upper delivers a rich, modern aesthetic, while the Afterglow accents add a bright, fast‑feeling contrast that stands out on race day. This is the top‑tier FuelCell model designed specifically for chasing personal bests.
Years of development went into refining the SC Elite v5, resulting in a shoe that pairs a full‑length carbon fibre plate with an ultra‑responsive 100% PEBA FuelCell midsole. The combination delivers a powerful, propulsive ride with a smooth rocker that helps you maintain momentum deep into long‑distance efforts. The lightweight, single‑layer mesh upper keeps the fit breathable and race‑ready, while the updated outsole improves grip and durability for confident running at speed.
Whether you’re lining up for a marathon, half marathon, or a fast road race, the SC Elite v5 is engineered to help you run your best.
