    Explain it like this. Fresh Foam is like walking on beautiful white sand. Feels great as it spreads through your toes. Fuel Cell is like walking on a trampoline. It's still soft under foot but it springs back. The more you push into it, the more you get back.

    I'd also like to add, I knew nothing of these max cushion shoes until I stumbled upon this channel. I was looking for comfortable walking shoes at the time on CZcams because I was trying to lose weight and walking as far as my feet would let me in my Nike Monarchs, which wasn't very far (so glad I found this channel). I just want to thank Hes Kicks for his channel and helping folks find more comfortable shoes to wear casually and walking or running. I share almost every single opinion on the shoes you review so you are my go-to channel if I want to know how a shoe is, like the New Balance, I have never even worn a New Balance shoe till I seen his first video on the SCT v1 and have been hooked every since now I have bought every New Balance running shoes that has launched from the SCT v1 and v2 the 1080 line the Rebel line the More V4 line the SCE v3 and v4 and I'll be getting the upgraded launches this year for SCT v3 and the More V5 and the new Balos I simply can't wait for the review then I usually get them overnighted to me if you say they are comfortable, So thanks again for all the great videos and reviews my friend!!

    After doing some research on comfortable shoes I came across the video you did last year with shoes you wear to Disney or Universal. I bought these online (used your link, but I'm in Europe so I hope it worked?) and you were totally right! These shoes are so comfortable that I want to wear them all day! Unfortunately I can't because I have an office job so I bought a pair of Cloud 5 that are a bit less flashy and more business casual. I'm looking forward to wearing these during a three day festival where I'm going and the Eras tour concert next month in Amsterdam where I have to stand a lot. Thank you very much and keep up the good work!

    I got a pair and found that at first, they were very comfortable but over time the foam just seems to not be as comfortable. So, I got the $250 pair and I love them. I just want to say in the I also went wide in NB FuelCell but this time, I bought both in regular size and they fit fine. I am not sure if they are making them a little wider or in my case I have a high arch, so maybe a little taller. I loved the trainer so much that I have come to like the plated ones better. More support and they tend to last longer.

  • @chesterlim9110
    @chesterlim9110 Před měsícem +2

    Yes, the tongue is frustrating when trying to put on the shoe from a standing position. The tongue gets pushed in and you often have to take the shoe off to fix the tongue position. No problem if you put on the shoe while sitting, and you can use 2 hands to slide the shoe on. Otherwise, these shoes are very comfortable and many sizes are sold out. New Balance needs to make these shoes faster to meet demand. I had to buy my electric blue pair in size 12 from another retailer.

I still can't wait for the more v5s and the SCT v3s and that new shoe made for walking can't remember the name, but it was after an Island if I remember right! Oh it's Balos!

    Fresh foam x more v4 vs fuelcell rebel v4, which one would you say is more comfortable?

  • @davidbraswell1481
    @davidbraswell1481 Před měsícem +5

    The Rebel feels like it bottoms out for me, but I am 6'4 and 300 so I wear them out faster than most I use Garmin Connect to keep up with my miles in each shoe and it felt great for 175 ish miles of hard walking so it would hold up under normal use I would think. I wear my Elite v 4s on my walks now for more cushion around mile 4 my feet start to swell a bit and get soar and the more stack and more cushioned midsole drives me to the end of my everyday 8-10-mile walks. after I am done I either throw on my Rebels or my 1080v13s to give my feet a break but I do wear any of these New Balance shoes as an everyday shoe as well not just on my walks. New Balance is Definitely my FAVORITE Brand!!!

      He didn't probably wear it long enough since he keep switching shoes. And didn't wear for long hours.

I bought both shoes and rotate and novablast 4 cushion is better for heavy guys like me

      I have regular width feet and wear 7.5 in 1080v13 -- fits great. I wear 8.0 in Rebel v4 because the 7.5 felt a touch short (not ideal for running). Rebel v4 feels very wide in the forefoot, though. I have to wear thicker socks, otherwise, my forefoot would be swimming in it. Definitely the roomiest forefoot of any running shoe I have worn.
