New Balance | FuelCell Flite S | Unisex | Afterglow/Boysenberry/Black
New Balance FuelCell Flite-S · Unisex Sprint Spike
Explosive traction for 60 to 400 meters
The unisex New Balance FuelCell Flite-S in Afterglow/Boysenberry/Black is a high-performance track spike for sprinters chasing fast starts, efficient acceleration, and a powerful finish. Its neon Afterglow upper is paired with deep Boysenberry and black accents for a look that matches its race-focused intent.
Purpose-built speed for the oval
New Balance designs the Flite-S for events from 60 m through 400 m. Six removable spikes let athletes replace worn pins, while the synthetic upper and lace closure keep the package streamlined. At approximately 6.1 oz (174 g), it stays light enough for race-day acceleration without removing the protection needed for repeated track sessions.
This is a true spike—not a cushioned road trainer. It is best reserved for synthetic tracks, sprint practice, relay legs, and competition. Check meet and facility rules for permitted spike-pin shapes and lengths before use.

Fit notes
This unisex listing uses New Balance men's/unisex sizing and standard D width; the product selector displays the corresponding women's size beside each men's size. Sprint spikes usually fit more closely than road shoes, so athletes often compare their measured size and intended sock choice before racing.
Quick answers
Is this spike for distance events?
It is specifically designed for short sprints from 60 m to 400 m. For 800 m and longer, choose a middle- or distance-specific spike.
Are the spikes removable?
Yes. The six pins can be replaced when worn or adjusted to comply with facility rules.
Can I use it on roads?
No. The rigid spike plate and exposed pins are made for track surfaces, not pavement or everyday walking.
