► Type I cadherins are weak binders, but confer strong adhesion through cooperativity. ► Cadherin specificity is not fully attributed to interacting extracellular domains. ► Type II cadherins establish large contact interfaces, but weak adhesions. ► Cadherin dynamics sustain epithelial cell plasticity.
