FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Most users find the Nike React Element 87 fits true to size, but the lightweight, unstructured upper may feel different than standard leather trainers.

Can I wear these in the rain?

While the materials are durable, the translucent upper is not fully waterproof. It is best to avoid heavy rain to prevent moisture or debris from entering the shoe.

How do I style the translucent look?

Consider the color of your socks, as they will be visible through the upper. Solid-colored socks provide a cleaner, more intentional look.

Is the React foam durable?

Yes, React foam is designed to retain its cushioning properties over long periods of regular wear.

What is the primary material?

The upper is constructed from a specialized translucent synthetic material, which is a signature element of this specific collaborative design.

Troubleshooting

Translucent upper looks cloudy

Gently wipe with a microfiber cloth and a mild sneaker-safe cleaning solution. Avoid abrasive brushes.

Internal friction or discomfort

The mesh footbed is designed to be worn with thin to medium-thickness socks. Try a different pair of socks to optimize comfort.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High level of underfoot cushioning provided by React technology
  • Lightweight construction suitable for extended wear
  • Unique design cues from high-fashion brand UNDERCOVER

Cons

  • Translucent material can show sock colors and patterns
  • Requires careful cleaning to avoid clouding the upper
  • Less structured than traditional leather or heavy mesh trainers

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because of the unique materials used, maintenance is essential. To keep the translucent upper clear, avoid exposing the shoes to mud or heavy grime. If cleaning is necessary, use a soft, damp cloth and mild soap to gently wipe the surfaces. Do not machine wash, as this may damage the integrity of the translucent panels. Store these trainers away from direct, prolonged sunlight to prevent yellowing of the materials. Ensure a proper fit by testing with your preferred thickness of sock, as the mesh footbed provides a different tactile feel than standard foam or fabric insoles.
