FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
While they feature advanced foam technology, they are designed primarily as lifestyle trainers for walking and everyday use rather than high-mileage distance running.
How do I clean the translucent upper?
Use a soft, damp cloth with a mild detergent. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using abrasive scrubbers that could scratch the translucent material.
Does the shoe run true to size?
The React Element 87 generally fits true to size, though the deconstructed nature of the upper can feel slightly more snug than traditional mesh trainers.
Are these trainers waterproof?
No, the materials are breathable and not intended for use in heavy rain or wet conditions.
Can I replace the insoles?
The insoles are removable, allowing you to swap them for custom orthotics if required for additional support.
Troubleshooting
Visible debris inside the shoe due to the translucent upper
Use a light puff of compressed air or a soft brush to clear dust from between the inner lining and the outer shell.
Foam midsole losing its springiness
Allow the foam to 'rest' for 24 hours between heavy uses to allow the material cells to recover their shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nike React Element 87 trainers remain in optimal condition, avoid exposing them to harsh chemicals or abrasive surfaces. Given the translucent nylon or leather construction, spot cleaning with a soft cloth and mild soap is recommended for minor scuffs. Ensure the shoes are air-dried away from direct heat sources to preserve the integrity of the React foam midsole. Store them in a cool, dry place when not in use to prevent material yellowing or deformation.
