FAQs

Is the React Element 87 suitable for running?

While it uses performance React foam, this model is primarily classified as a lifestyle sneaker intended for daily walking and casual wear.

How do I choose the right socks for these shoes?

Since the upper is translucent, choose socks that complement the 'Red Orbit' colorway to enhance the overall look.

Does the shoe run true to size?

Most users find the React Element 87 fits true to their standard Nike size, though the thin material offers a flexible fit.

Can I put these in the washing machine?

No, machine washing can damage the suede overlays and cause the translucent material to warp or lose its clarity.

What should I do if the white midsole gets scuffed?

Use a specialized sneaker cleaning solution and a soft cloth to gently buff out marks on the foam midsole.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt inside the shoe compartment

Use a blast of compressed air to remove loose debris, or gently use a soft-bristled brush to reach into the crevices near the tongue.

Creasing in the translucent upper

Use proper shoe trees when not in use to help the material maintain its original shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Nike React Element 87 sneakers remain in top condition, proper care is essential. Since the upper is made of a specialized synthetic translucent material, avoid abrasive brushes that could scratch the surface. Use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap to gently spot clean the exterior. To maintain the crisp look of the red and blue suede accents, keep them away from excessive moisture and deep mud. Store your shoes in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight, which can cause the translucent material to yellow over time. When wearing, ensure you check the fit for your specific UK size, as the structure is designed to offer a snug, performance-oriented lockdown.
