While the signature semi-translucent upper creates a unique, modern aesthetic, it does require careful selection of socks, as they will be visible through the material.

FAQs

Are these shoes water-resistant?

The Nike React Element 87 is not waterproof. The translucent upper and leather materials can allow water to seep in during heavy rain.

Can I use these for running?

While they feature React technology, they are designed as lifestyle trainers for walking and casual wear rather than high-mileage running.

How do I choose the right size?

The size listed here is UK 7.5. We recommend checking your foot length against Nike's official size chart as fit can vary by model.

Is the sole slippery?

The rubber pods on the outsole provide standard traction for urban walking on dry and damp surfaces.

How do I keep the interior clean?

Since the exterior is semi-translucent, it is recommended to keep your feet and socks clean to ensure the aesthetic remains crisp from the inside out.

Troubleshooting

Translucent material appears cloudy

Gently clean with a microfiber cloth and warm water; avoid abrasive cleaners.

Creasing on leather overlays

Use shoe trees when not in use to help maintain the original shape and minimize deep creases.

React foam feels dirty

Use a soft-bristle brush to gently remove surface debris from the textured foam sole.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-energy return through React foam
  • Lightweight and breathable construction
  • Versatile modern aesthetic
  • Durable leather reinforcements

Cons

  • Translucent upper shows socks clearly
  • Requires maintenance to keep material clear
  • Not intended for heavy-duty sports

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your trainers last, follow these guidelines:

  1. Socks: Since the upper is semi-translucent, test your sock choice to see how it interacts with the Dark Grey and Photo Blue color scheme.
  2. Cleaning: Wipe the leather overlays with a soft, dry cloth. For the translucent material, use a damp cloth with mild soap; avoid harsh chemicals that might cause clouding or yellowing.
  3. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can cause the translucent material to discolour over time.
  4. Fit: Ensure you verify your UK sizing (7.5 for this specific model) as fit can vary between Nike series.
