Women’s Wedge Sandals Pikolinos Cadaqués W8K-1839C2 — The Icon Reimagined with Braided Leather and 4 cm Wedge
The Pikolinos Cadaqués W8K-1839C2 in Nata is widely recognised as one of the most loved wedge sandals in the brand’s collection — and for good reason. It combines everything that makes a great summer sandal: a wide fit, a stable 4 cm cushioned wedge, handcrafted stitching around the entire sole, and a refreshed braided leather design that adds more visual character than the classic version.
The C2 version introduces a bi-colour design: crossed leather straps in soft Nata over a Brandy wedge and heel counter. The visible hand-stitched seam in cream thread runs around the entire edge of the wedge, becoming one of the model’s defining artisanal details. A Velcro fastening on the ankle strap ensures quick and easy fit, while the 4 cm wedge offers flattering height without compromising all-day comfort.
The upper combines 75% cow leather and 25% goat leather, delivering durability with enhanced flexibility. The lining combines cow leather with breathable textile for improved ventilation. The outsole is lightweight synthetic with anti-slip properties. Made in Spain and Leather Working Group certified.
Available at Calzados Vesga online and in-store at Plaza Mayor, Burgos.

The Cadaqués is one of Pikolinos’ most iconic wedge sandals, known for its wide fit, cushioned comfort and handcrafted construction. The W8K-1839C2 version updates the classic design with braided leather detailing and a bi-colour aesthetic for a more modern, expressive look.
BRAIDED LEATHER UPPER: REFINED CRAFTSMANSHIP
The upper features braided and interlaced leather strips, adding texture and depth to the forefoot. This is not just aesthetic:
Visually:
The braided leather creates light variation and texture, making the sandal more dynamic than smooth leather designs.
Functionally:
The structure improves flexibility and adapts better to foot movement, reducing pressure points during walking.
FULL COMFORT LEATHER MIX
The upper combines cow leather (strength and durability) with goat leather (softness and flexibility). This combination is specifically chosen to enhance movement comfort, especially in braided structures that need extra adaptability.
The lining mixes leather and breathable textile for temperature control and comfort in warm weather.
HAND-STITCHED CRAFTSMANSHIP
A defining feature of the Cadaqués is the visible hand-stitched seam running around the wedge. This is not decorative alone — it reflects the construction method that joins the upper to the sole.
Each pair has subtle natural variation due to hand stitching, reinforcing its artisanal identity.
4 CM WEDGE: THE PERFECT BALANCE
The 4 cm wedge is designed for all-day wear:
- Enough height to enhance posture and silhouette
- Low enough to avoid foot fatigue
- Even platform distribution for natural walking position
Combined with a cushioned insole, it makes the Cadaqués suitable for long daily wear.
BI-COLOUR DESIGN: NATA / BRANDY
The soft Nata upper contrasts with the warm Brandy wedge, creating a balanced summer palette:
- Nata pairs easily with whites, linens and light neutrals
- Brandy complements earthy tones, denim and warm colours
Together they create a versatile sandal that works across most summer wardrobes.
HOW TO STYLE NATA / BRANDY
- White linen dresses: clean summer contrast
- Beige and sand tones: natural monochrome palette
- Light denim: effortless casual styling
- Olive and khaki: warm earthy combinations
- Pastel dresses (sage, blush, lavender): soft elegant balance
Less compatible with:
High-saturation electric colours or very cool neon tones.
BUYING CONCERNS
“Is a 4 cm wedge comfortable for all-day wear?”

No. The combination of cow and goat leather is intentional: durability + flexibility, especially important for braided construction.
