Description
The Black Denim Aleph Beis Kippah is a black denim yarmulke embroidered with grey Hebrew letters, offered in 10 sizes at $9.99. The aleph-beis runs in sequence around the lower part of the dome in bold grey satin-stitch letters, just above a slim black denim binding. The grey is soft enough to keep the look calm, but the letters are large and clearly legible. The design is from iKippah's collaboration with designer Rachel Ostroy. Sold by Judaica Square, shipping from Lakewood, NJ.

Best for
- An upsherin or first-day-of-cheder gift
- A boy learning his letters, or a teacher of young children
- Adults who like Hebrew typography without bright colour
- Flat-cut wearers, with clip loops at 16 and 18cm
Not the right choice if
- You need a size 6 or larger dome; domes stop at 5
- You want the kippah to be plain
- A formal velvet look for Shabbos
- You want brighter letters; the grey is deliberately muted
Why customers choose it
Letter kippot often come in bright colours aimed only at small children. Here the aleph-beis is stitched in grey on black denim, so it works for a boy starting cheder and equally for his father or rebbe. The letters are large and run around the base of the dome, so they are visible from every side without crowding the crown. The flat cuts include 16 and 18cm with clip loops.
