Pikolinos Palma W4N-0650C1 wedge sandal in ivory

The Pikolinos Palma wedge sandal in ivory is the kind of summer shoe you slip on in the morning and forget about until bedtime. Model code W4N-0650C1 pairs a light platform of around 4.5 cm with leather straps that weave across the foot.

Materials and comfort

The upper is made from calfskin and goatskin leather in three shades: ivory, tan and a soft bronze metallic. The white wedge, trimmed with a metallic band, gives you a little lift without pushing your weight onto the ball of the foot, and Pikolinos describes the sole as extra light. The padded footbed has a suede-effect camel finish that feels pleasant against bare skin on hot days.

Fit

The front straps hold the foot securely without pinching, while the back strap fastens with a gold-tone buckle, so you can set it to your ankle and stop worrying about slipping. The open toe keeps things airy, and the broad base feels steady whether you're strolling through the old town, heading to the beach or running errands.

How to wear it

Ivory with tan and metallic touches works with almost everything in a summer wardrobe: denim shorts, linen midi skirts, white shirt dresses or wide-leg trousers in earthy tones. For the evening, try it with a plain dress in blue or green and a raffia bag. It's a genuinely comfortable everyday sandal, and the hint of shimmer means it won't look out of place at a relaxed dinner by the sea.
