FAQs

Are these sneakers true to size?

Most users find the Nike React Element 87 runs true to size, though the deconstructed nature provides a slightly different feel than traditional leather trainers.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper features a semi-translucent synthetic material reinforced with leather elements for added durability and structure.

Can I wear these for running?

While these feature React foam, they are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual wear rather than high-performance distance running.

How do I keep the translucent material clean?

Gently wipe with a damp cloth; avoid harsh chemicals that might cloud or damage the synthetic material.

Do the colors bleed on the upper?

The vibrant red, yellow, and blue accents are applied to be durable, but it is best to avoid heavy soaking to ensure long-term color integrity.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt inside the shoe

Use a small soft-bristled brush or a compressed air canister to clear debris from the footbed and under the translucent layers.

Discoloration of the translucent upper

Avoid exposing the shoes to prolonged direct UV light; if minor cloudiness occurs, gently wipe with a microfiber cloth and a dedicated sneaker cleaning solution.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight and breathable construction
  • Highly responsive React cushioning
  • Distinctive, non-traditional visual design
  • High-quality material detailing

Cons

  • Semi-translucent upper reveals sock color
  • May require break-in period for optimal fit
  • Light-colored accents can show dirt easily

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Nike React Element 87 remains in top condition, avoid machine washing or heavy submersion in water, as this can degrade the leather and specialized upper materials. Instead, perform spot cleaning using a soft brush, mild soap, and lukewarm water. For storage, keep the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the translucent material from yellowing over time. If your laces become dirty, they can be removed and hand-washed separately.
