Can I use normal shoe cream on shoes made with high-tech materials such as Sympatex?

You can only use those waterproofing and care products which do not impair the functioning of such materials. By using the wrong care product, you could seal the surface of the shoes and thus keep the material from fulfilling its intended purpose. The care products we recommend for Sympatex, such as Salamander Wetter-Schutz, Coxy Aqua Stop or Woly Fashion Leather Cream, have been tested by an independent testing institute. Since all such materials have a similar structure, you should have no problems using the same care products for materials by other manufacturers.
