If you’re a budget-minded runner who only wants one pair of trainers in the closet, grab the Propel.
On foot, the FuelCell foam feels responsive and energetic, but not quite as soft as New Balance’s Fresh Foam offering. The overall experience is more propulsive and snappy, rather than cushioned with a healthy bounce. However, our testers found that the Propel still has plenty of softness and cushioning for long runs, with the chops to handle faster speeds on the oval.
“The New Balance Propel has a perfect amount of cushioning for my feet—it felt light and springy right from the start,” a tester said. “I ran mostly on roads and sidewalks for 5 to 6 miles most days of the week, with longer 10- to 12-mile runs on the weekend, and the shoe felt great on the track forOne important note is that our stack height measurements in the RW Lab didn’t quite match up to New Balance’s site information.
The bungee-styled eyelets made it difficult for two testers to lock in snug fits initially. One runner would find himself sliding forward occasionally in the shoe and another needed several reties before feeling secure. That said, neither found that the issues persisted enough to interfere on the run as they continued to break in the shoe.
