FAQs

Are these shoes true to size?

Yes, the Nike React Element 87 is designed to fit true to size, so you should select your standard UK shoe size.

Can I use these for intense sports?

These trainers are primarily designed for lifestyle and casual everyday wear, not for high-intensity athletic training.

How do I keep the white elements clean?

Gently wipe the white portions with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals that could discolour the material.

Is the material waterproof?

The leather upper is not waterproof. It is recommended to apply a water-repellent spray designed for leather to protect against light moisture.

What is the primary benefit of the React foam?

React foam offers high energy return, which means it provides a bouncy, springy feeling that helps reduce fatigue during long periods of walking.

Troubleshooting

Stiff feel during initial wear

The React foam will soften slightly with use; try wearing them for shorter periods during the first few days.

Leather showing minor scuffs

Use a leather-safe conditioner or cleaner to buff out surface marks and restore the finish.

Laces becoming loose

Ensure the laces are threaded through all eyelets evenly to maintain consistent tension across the bridge of the foot.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent responsiveness and energy return
  • Lightweight feel prevents foot fatigue
  • Versatile design suitable for casual and active use
  • Reliable, true-to-size fit

Cons

  • Leather material requires specific maintenance
  • Light-coloured detailing may show dirt
  • Limited to lifestyle and light-activity use

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because these trainers fit true to size, no complex setup or break-in period is generally required; they are ready for wear right out of the box. To maintain the aesthetic of the leather, avoid submerging the shoes in water. Instead, use a soft, dry brush to remove loose dirt after each use. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap solution and a damp cloth on the leather surfaces, then allow them to air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent cracking or warping.
