New Balance FuelCell MD500v9 – Womens

The New Balance FuelCell MD500 v9 is a women’s track spike engineered for middle-distance and distance racing — from the 800m to the mile and beyond. Designed for emerging and aspiring track athletes, the MD500 v9 delivers the performance fundamentals needed to compete across multiple events throughout the season.

At the core of the shoe is a full-length FuelCell midsole — New Balance’s soft, bouncy, and energy-returning foam — which pairs with a 6-pin TPU spike plate at the forefoot for propulsion off the track. The spike plate accepts removable spikes, allowing athletes to customize grip and traction based on event and track surface. The synthetic mesh upper features no-sew overlays for a sleek, distraction-free fit that keeps foot feel close to the track without unnecessary bulk.

This colorway is designed specifically for women and features a women’s-specific fit and sizing. Lighter than its predecessor, the MD500 v9 is a value-driven spike that doesn’t compromise on track performance — making it an excellent choice for high school and collegiate athletes stepping up their race-day footwear.
