FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While they feature React cushioning, the React Element 87 is primarily designed as a lifestyle and walking trainer rather than a high-mileage running shoe.
How should I clean the leather parts?
Use a specialized leather cleaner or a soft, slightly damp cloth to wipe away debris, followed by an air dry.
Do these shoes run true to size?
Yes, they generally follow standard adult sizing, but it is recommended to ensure you select your specific UK adult size for the best fit.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable if you prefer to use your own custom orthotics.
Is the leather water-resistant?
While leather provides more protection than fabric, it is not fully waterproof. Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain.
Troubleshooting
The leather upper feels stiff.
Wear the shoes for short periods indoors to allow the leather to naturally soften and stretch to your foot shape.
Midsole foam appears dusty or dirty.
Wipe the foam components with a microfiber cloth dipped in mild soapy water and let them air dry away from heat sources.
Squeaking sound while walking.
Ensure the insole is properly seated inside the shoe and that there is no moisture trapped between the insole and the midsole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nike React Element 87 trainers last, avoid exposing the leather to excessive moisture or harsh detergents. Use a soft-bristled brush to remove surface dirt and a damp cloth for deeper cleaning of the midsole. For the leather upper, apply a leather-specific conditioner periodically to prevent cracking. When storing your trainers, keep them in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight to preserve the color and material integrity. Ensure you are wearing the correct UK adult size to maximize the benefit of the foam cushioning system.
