Description
The Black on Black Plaid Kippah is a four-panel near-black textured yarmulke with a tonal glen check, sold in 12 sizes (dome 1 to 8 plus 16, 18, 20 and 22cm flat) at $9.99. The fabric has a small, nubby basket-weave surface in black with a slight charcoal-navy cast, and a glen plaid is woven into it in barely different shades, so the lines appear and disappear as the light moves. From across a room it is simply a dark kippah. The rim is a band of the same fabric. Sold by Judaica Square, shipping from Lakewood, NJ.

Why customers choose it
This is about as subtle as a patterned kippah gets. The glen plaid is woven in near-identical shades of black, so it only reveals itself close up or when the light hits it at an angle. That makes it a good choice for men who must or prefer to wear dark, but want something more interesting than plain cotton. The nubby weave also hides lint better than smooth black cloth, and the size run reaches size 8.

Frequently asked questions
Can you see the plaid?
Only up close or in angled light. From a distance the kippah looks solid black.
Is it pure black?
It is a near-black with a faint charcoal-navy cast in the woven texture.
What sizes go the largest?
Dome size 8 and a 22cm flat, which is larger than most patterned kippot.
How does it compare with Blue on Blue Plaid?
It is the same tonal idea. Blue on Blue uses navy with a lighter blue check, so the pattern is more visible.
Is it formal enough for a wedding?
Yes for most guests. It reads as a dark, dressy kippah.
