FAQs

Is the Nike React Element 87 waterproof?

No, the semi-translucent upper material is porous and not designed for wet weather conditions.

What type of socks should I wear with these?

Because of the translucent upper, your socks will be visible. Many owners opt for fun, patterned, or color-coordinated socks to match the shoe's aesthetic.

Are these shoes suitable for running?

While they feature React foam for comfort, they are designed primarily as lifestyle and casual trainers rather than high-performance running shoes.

How do I clean the white or light-colored soles?

Use a magic eraser or a specialized sneaker cleaning solution to keep the foam midsole looking fresh.

Does the size UK 12 fit true to size?

Yes, the React Element 87 generally follows standard Nike sizing, providing a snug, performance-inspired fit.

Troubleshooting

Visible dirt inside the shoe

Remove the insole and use a compressed air canister to blow out debris through the translucent fabric.

Scuffs on the exterior synthetic material

Gently rub the area with a soft cloth dipped in lukewarm water and a drop of gentle dish soap.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Highly distinctive and stylish design
  • Lightweight construction perfect for daily walking
  • Responsive cushioning technology
  • Excellent ventilation due to the translucent material

Cons

  • Visibility through the upper requires mindful sock choices
  • The unique aesthetic may not appeal to all preferences
  • Requires regular cleaning to keep the translucent material clear

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your trainers last, proper care is essential. The leather components should be wiped down with a clean, damp cloth to maintain their texture. For the translucent synthetic sections, use a mild soap solution and a soft-bristled brush to remove dust or scuffs; avoid harsh chemical cleaners which could yellow or cloud the material. When not in use, store the shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent potential discoloration of the vibrant blue and yellow accents. Given their standard UK 12 sizing, these trainers are compatible with standard athletic orthotics if additional arch support is required.
