FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?
Yes, the Nike React Element 87 fits consistently with most standard Nike sizing for men.
Can I wear these for running?
While they provide great cushioning, they are designed as lifestyle sneakers and are not intended for high-performance athletic training.
How do I style the translucent upper?
The translucent material allows you to customize the look of the shoe by choosing different colors and patterns of socks.
Are these suitable for wet weather?
The material is not waterproof; it is best to avoid heavy rain to prevent moisture from entering the shoe through the upper.
What is the best way to store them?
Keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the vibrancy of the Red Orbit colors.
Troubleshooting
Visible dirt inside the shoe
Use a gentle vacuum attachment or compressed air to remove debris from the interior, as the translucent upper makes trapped particles visible.
Creasing on the upper material
Avoid over-tightening the laces, which can cause the thin material to bunch or crease prematurely.
Suede overlays becoming matted
Use a specialized suede brush to gently restore the texture and remove surface-level grime.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Nike React Element 87, avoid wearing them in muddy or harsh terrain that could damage the delicate upper material. Because of the translucent construction, it is recommended to store them away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration. If cleaning is necessary, use a soft-bristled brush and mild soap to gently clean the suede overlays, and wipe the upper with a damp cloth. Always air-dry naturally, avoiding direct heat sources like radiators, which could warp the synthetic materials.
