New Balance FuelCell RC Elite

2020, the year of the Tokyo Olympics, and it shows. Now more than ever, Running shoes are in the spotlight with the application of carbon fiber plates in their midsoles. The New Balance Fuel Cell RC Elite is a clear example of offering a model that meets all the demands of professional athletes, who train every day to shave a few thousandths of a second off the clock, and opt to touch the glory of the medals in the case of a select group of privileged athletes.

With this "open war" between the main brands in the running universe, and with the focus on Running shoes with carbon plates, the renowned Boston brand has worked conscientiously to present its exclusive Fuel Cell collection, which includes these new New Balance Fuel Cell RC Elite.

New Balance Fuel Cell RC Elite, main features and runner profile

As its name suggests, we are talking about a specific model for competition, and oriented to professional and top-level athletes. But with an added valor as the fact that these Fuel Cell RC Elite have been designed to run the demanding marathon distance, and try to smash personal times. In this sense, its main argument in favor is found in the construction of its exclusive and innovative midsole, which combines these dynamic carbon plates with the most technical cushioning foams, and capable of offering high performance with excellent energy return in each step.

By saying that these New Balance Fuel Cell RC Elite are made for running at top speed, we've pretty much said it all.

When breaking down this racing shoe for the most pro athletes, the keys to these New Balance Fuel Cell RC Elite are found in two specific points, such as:

• Increased midsole compound, which ensures greater energy return and rebound.

• Dynaride outsole system, which, in addition to ensuring a formidable traction, also provides a lighter weight to the shoe, and therefore favors moving with better guarantees in the most dynamic situations and speed.

Of course, everything applied in these New Balance Fuel Cell RC Elite has its basis in one of its pioneering models - by including carbon fiber plates - such as the New Balance Fuel Cell 5280, and which have become the reference model of top athletes of the New Balance Team, such as Adel Mechaal, or even the name of Jennifer Simpson, winner of the 5th Avenue Mile in New York, for the eighth consecutive time and with the record of the event.

Thus the path began back in 2017 in the New Balance High Performance lab with the Fuel Cell 5820 for short distances; and now they reach their maximum expression with these flying shoes of the New Balance Fuel Cell RC Elite for long distances.

On the other hand, with their technical specifications in hand, you will realize that these New Balance Fuel Cell RC Elite are a true featherweight, under 200 grams(198 grams to be more exact), and with a low profiledrop, which makes them the ideal model for all those marathoners of low weight (65 kilos and dropping), and with a magnificent and refined running technique.
