Description
The Black Leather Kippah is a plain black four-panel leather yarmulke for men and boys, available in 12 sizes at $11.99. Up close the leather has a fine pebbled grain and a soft satin shine rather than a mirror gloss. The four seams cross at the centre of the crown, and a narrow black leather rim is stitched on in black thread, so there is no contrast anywhere on the kippah. Sold by Judaica Square, shipping from Lakewood, NJ.

Best for
- A daily black kippah for work, school and minyan
- Wet weather, since leather handles light rain better than velvet
- Finding an exact fit, with sizes 1 to 7 and 16 to 20 cm flats
- A spare black kippah for the car, office or tallis bag
Not the right choice if
- A shul where black velvet is the expected Shabbos kippah
- Anyone who wants colour or a contrast rim
- Someone who prefers a soft, matte feel; try suede
- Very hot days if you find leather warm
Why customers choose it
This is the plain black leather kippah: nothing added, and a wide size range. The pebble grain keeps fingerprints and light scuffs from showing the way smooth leather can, and a quick wipe cleans it. With seven numbered sizes and five flat cuts, it is straightforward to match whatever size someone already wears.

Frequently asked questions
Is the finish shiny or matte?
It has a soft satin sheen with a fine pebbled grain, not a glossy patent look.
How is black leather different from black suede?
Leather is smooth and wipes clean; suede has a brushed, matte nap that looks softer but marks more easily.
What flat sizes are available?
Flat cuts come in 16, 17, 18, 19 and 20 cm, alongside numbered sizes 1 through 7.
Can I wear a leather kippah in the rain?
Light rain is fine; blot it dry with a cloth and let it air-dry away from a heater.
What size for an adult with a larger head?
Size 6 or 7, or the 19 or 20 cm flat cut, suit larger heads. Size 5 fits most adult men.
Can I add embroidery?
Yes, names and dates embroider cleanly on black leather in white, silver or gold thread, with no minimum order.
