Description
The Black Suede Kippah is a plain, dark four-panel suede yarmulke for boys and men, offered in 10 sizes at $9.99. The suede has a velvety, brushed nap that absorbs light, giving it a matte finish without the shine of velvet pile. The panels meet in a cross at the crown, and a slim self-fabric rim with one stitch line finishes the edge. The colour is a very deep, warm espresso-black. Sold by Judaica Square, shipping from Lakewood, NJ.

Why customers choose it
Black suede gives the formality of a dark kippah with a softer, more tactile surface than velvet. It does not show the crushed-pile marks velvet can pick up, and the plain rim keeps it traditional. With sizes up to 7 and three flats, it covers most heads from young boys to men.

Frequently asked questions
Is this a true jet black?
Not quite. It is a very deep, slightly warm black, close to espresso, and the nap can make it look a shade lighter at some angles.
Is suede as formal as velvet?
Black suede looks dressy and understated. Where a community specifically expects velvet, choose velvet.
What is the largest dome size?
Size 7 is the largest dome in this colour. There are also 16cm, 18cm and 20cm flats.
How should I store a suede kippah?
Keep it flat or on a form, away from moisture. A light brush restores the nap if it gets flattened.
Which is better for a boy, suede or velvet?
Suede is soft and hides minor scuffs well, while velvet can show crushed pile. Both should be kept out of the wash.
