FAQs
Are the Nike React Element 87 trainers suitable for running?
These trainers are designed primarily for lifestyle and casual daily wear rather than high-performance athletic running.
How should I clean the translucent parts?
Use a damp, soft cloth with a mild detergent. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using abrasive scrub brushes.
Is the React foam durable?
Yes, React foam is engineered for high energy return and durability under normal daily walking conditions.
Does the material stretch?
The upper is constructed from lightweight, synthetic materials that provide a structured but flexible fit that adapts slightly to your foot shape.
Can I wear these in the rain?
While the materials are weather-resistant, the translucent upper is not fully waterproof; it is best to avoid heavy rain to prevent internal moisture.
Troubleshooting
Translucent upper appears cloudy
Clean gently with a soft microfiber cloth and a mild soap solution to remove surface residue.
Midsole foam feels less responsive over time
Ensure the shoes are not kept in extreme heat, which can compress foam compounds; allow the shoes to rest after heavy use to let the foam recover.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your trainers in optimal condition, treat them with care given the delicate nature of the translucent panels.
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth using mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals that could cloud or yellow the translucent upper materials.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, as UV exposure may eventually affect the transparency of the upper and the integrity of the foam.
- Sock Pairing: Because the upper is see-through, ensure your socks are clean and complement the Black and White colorway of the trainers.
- Fitment: These trainers are available in a wide range of unisex and male sizes, ensuring a tailored fit for most adult foot shapes.
