Description
The Allergy Alert Kippah is a four-panel yarmulke with an embroidered red allergy patch, offered in 5 fabric colours and 7 sizes (dome 1 to 6 plus an 18cm flat) at $9.99. On the front sits a round red patch reading ALLERGY ALERT around a white medical star with a staff, and under it the words flip for info are stitched in white. Inside, the lining is printed with ruled lines headed I'm allergic to:, Name: and In case of an emergency:, so a parent can write the details in with a fabric marker. The five options are navy twill, light denim, a navy Starry Night print with tiny white dots, black twill and dark denim. Sold by Judaica Square, shipping from Lakewood, NJ.

How this compares
| Kippah | Material | Season / weight | Formality | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Allergy Alert (5 colours) (this one) | Cotton twill or denim | Year-round | Everyday school wear | A child with allergies who needs the details on him at all times |

Best for
- A child with a food or medication allergy starting school, camp or a new babysitter
- Parents who want allergy details written where staff will actually find them
- Boys whose school allows navy, black or denim kippot
- Adults with a serious allergy who want a discreet alert on Shabbos when phones are away
Not the right choice if
- A general medical condition such as diabetes or epilepsy; the patch says ALLERGY
- A formal simcha look; the red patch is meant to be noticed
- You want a flat kippah in several sizes; the only flat cut is 18cm
- A replacement for a medical ID bracelet; use it alongside one
Why customers choose it
The problem with allergy information is that it lives on a form in an office while the child is at recess or on a trip. This kippah puts the warning on the front, where a teacher or counsellor sees it, and the details on the inside, where a parent can write the allergen, the child's name and an emergency number. The patch uses the familiar medical star so it is recognised at a glance, and the five colours mean a child can wear one that fits his school's dress code.
Size guide
| Size | Typical fit |
|---|---|
| 1 | Toddler, roughly 2–3 years |
| 2 | Young child, roughly 4–5 years |
| 3 | Child, roughly 6–7 years |
| 4 | Older child, roughly 8–10 years |
| 5 | Teen and most adult men — the most-ordered size |
| 6 | Larger adult head |
| 18cm Flat | Flat style, 18 cm across — typically teen to adult |
Sizing is guidance, not a promise — heads vary. When you are between two sizes, the larger one sits better.
Frequently asked questions
