New Balance FuelCell SuperComp Trail Running Shoes

For trail runners in need of speed, the carbon-plated FuelCell SuperComp Trail is designed to provide energy return and best-in-class traction.

Synthetic and Textile Upper

Supplying you with a cool, breathable trail running experience, the FuelCell SuperComp utilise a lightweight and durable synthetic and textile upper. The lightweight uppers have a sleek design with a breathable feel, for the optimum level of comfort and confidence on the trail. Strategically placed perforations provide you with a constant supply of airflow, ensuring overheating and a build-up of moisture are both prevented. The flexible nature of the materials allows your feet to move comfortably and naturally when out on tricky trails, keeping you stable and focused on the run ahead. The shoes have a plush, cushioned collar and tongue, for a secure, irritation-free journey. Completing the upper is an adjustable lace closure that provides a customisable, comfortable fit, which therefore keeps feet locked in and secure, preventing in-shoe slipping from occurring.

FuelCell Midsole

The FuelCell midsole compound is a nitrogen-infused foam with approximately 3% bio-based content that quickly drives you off the cushioning platform and delivers long-lasting performance. Delivering high-rebound, the FuelCell SuperComp creates an energetic propulsive feel with an ultra-lightweight running experience. The propulsive feel helps to drive you forward for an even faster feeling on race days. The midsole absorbs shocks and negative impact forces as you heel strike and uses the energy to catapult you off into your next step, allowing you to still be faster. With a carbon-fibre plate, the FuelCell SuperComp is designed to be more aggressive in providing more energy return and propulsion during toe-off. Additionally, Energy Arc pairs advanced carbon fibre plate geometry alongside strategically shaped and placed midsole voids, which have been designed to increase stored energy to deliver a high amount of total energy returned.

Vibram Megagrip Outsole

To enhance grip and traction across a variety of surfaces and terrains, the FuelCell SuperComp utilise a Vibram Megagrip, providing support on wet and dry ground. This durable outsole also utilises Vibram Lightbase, which helps to reduce the overall weight and thickness of the sole, whilst also helping to maintain the grip, traction and durability of the shoe. This combination of outsole materials provides you with the support you need for the changing terrains on your trail run.
