The New Balance FuelCell Summit Unknown v3 is renewed with an important leap in quality compared to previous versions. Now, the idea is to wear the most technical trail runningshoe from New Balance, and being a perfect all-rounder for the most technical trails in the mountains. The combination of features, performance and design are a trademark of the company, and also appear as the hallmark of trail runningshoes for training and competition for runners with neutral footsteps.
Within the catalog of trail runningshoes from New Balance it is true that these New Balance FuelCell Summint Unknown v3 are not the best known and most media silhouettes of the Boston company. Such a circumstance does not exempt you from not having to take this model into account. Especially, if your preference is to get a model that adapts to all types of terrain, offering soft, efficient cushioning and excellent propulsion in each stride.
In trail territory, the loyal followers of New Balance bet on the best-selling options such as the New Balance Fresh Foam X Hierro v7, the New Balance Fresh Foam X More Trail v2, and even the New Balance Nitrel v5. However, the presentation of these renewed New Balance FuelCell Summit Unknown v3 is the confirmation that the staff of the American brand also aims to meet the main demands of the most demanding trail runners, and who seek the highest performance to improve their results in the mountains.
We speak of the New Balance FuelCell Summit Unknown v3 as the most technical and fastest New Balance Balance shoe for trail running. Just by looking at its name we realize that the FuelCell midsole incorporates features as important as comfort, lightness, safety and response. Something that we have already seen in the successful runningshoes "on road" New Balance Balance, and that have given such good results to the satisfaction of a good bunch of runners. The New Balance FuelCell Rebel v2, for example.
However, the key features that certify the leap in quality of these FuelCell Summit Unknown v3 can be summarized as follows:
As we say, this FuelCell compound gives this third version of the Summit Unknown a feeling of greater propulsion and lightness, but also with the clear idea that you will go further.
The plus point of these New Balance FuelCell Summit Unknown v3 is that it is a more sustainable trailshoe. As New Balance points out, the midsole is made of 3 bio-based material from renewable sources. A detail that contributes to reducing the carbon footprint.
On the other hand, more details that jump out of the new look of these New Balance FuelCell Summit Unknown v3 is its upper. The bootie-like design is able to wrap better around the foot, ensuring better support and fit of the shoe. A fit that comes more personalized with the adjustable lace closure.
In addition, both the integrated tongue and the outstanding Toe Protect technology increase the degree of protection against roots, rocks and other external elements.
Another major new feature of these New Balance FuelCell Summit Unknown v3 is located in the outsole. Here, the product designers of the American brand bet on the inclusion of the Hydrohesion compound. Its effectiveness is proven as already shown by the New Balance Fresh Foam X More Trail. Thanks to this exclusive material, the shoe makes a difference with exceptional grip, even on wet terrain.
Not to mention that these New Balance FuelCell Summit Unknown v3 include the Rock Stop plate in the forefoot area to increase foot protection on uneven terrain.
Given the performance and features of the New Balance FuelCell Summit Unknown v3, the ideal trail runner is a neutral-footed athlete with intermediate and light weights, looking for an all-terrain shoe to run efficiently and safely.
Versatility is another feature of this renewed model from New Balance, because you will have the option of using these FuelCell Summit Unknown v3 for long-distance training, running at slower paces. But, also, they are defended in short and medium distance races up to 50k trail, including.
As far as the use of these New Balance FuelCell Summit Unknown v3 is concerned, they are suitable for technical trails with rocks and muddy areas. However, they are capable of adapting to dirt trails, and even campo. It is also a success as a more technical hiking shoe, and for the most demanding adventurers.
Looking at the technical specifications we also find that the New Balance FuelCell Summit Unknown v3 is New Balance Balance's most technical trailshoes to date. Its weights place it below the 300 grams barrier. More specifically, in the men's version they are around 294 grams, while in trail running shoes for women they are 236 grams.
Regarding their geometry, there are small variations between the men's and women's trail runningshoes. Once again, New Balance has taken into account the needs of the female trail runner, and the drop of these New Balance FuelCell Summit Unknown v3 is 6 millimeters for women, while in the men's version, the drop is somewhat higher at 10 millimeters.
