Classic Pocket-Size Hebrew Siddur in Grey #296

Grey rounds out the classic Malchut siddur, design #296, alongside the bronze and the brown. It is the coolest of the three and the most contemporary-looking; on a shelf beside older seforim it stands apart, which some people want and some people specifically do not.

The siddur is 604 pages at 4.75 by 3.5 inches — a full text in a pocket footprint — and you select nusach Ashkenaz or Sefard when ordering. There is no separate weekday and Shabbos edition to work out here. It is one siddur, covering what a siddur covers.

Pocket siddurim earn their keep in the places a normal siddur never reaches: a coat pocket through the winter, a bag that goes to work every day, a glove compartment. Grey in particular has become the default among bochurim and younger men who find brown and bronze a little heavy. Ordering several at once for a school or a shul is straightforward, since the design is identical across all three colours and only the cover changes.
