Description
This is iKippah's classic Black Velvet Kippah: a four-panel black velvet yarmulke with a black rim, made in 22 sizes and priced at $9.99. The velvet has a short, dense pile with the soft sheen velvet is known for, and a narrow black twill rim with neat stitching finishes the edge. Seen from above, four panels meet in a clean cross. The size range is the widest in this batch: domed sizes 1 to 9, flat cuts at nearly every centimetre from 15 to 24, and 16, 18 and 20 cm flats offered with clips. Sold by Judaica Square, shipping from Lakewood, NJ.

How this compares

Best for
- Yeshiva, cheder and shuls where plain black velvet is the norm
- A bar mitzvah boy's first velvet kippah
- Young children on flat sizes with clips, so the kippah stays put
- Unusual fits: domes up to size 9 and flats from 15 to 24 cm
Not the right choice if
- You want any colour on the rim
- You prefer a matte fabric with no sheen
- You want a machine-washable kippah
- You prefer six panels (see the 6 Panel version)
Why customers choose it
iKippah describes this as velvet with shimmer and subtle shine for every day, and that is its job: the default black velvet kippah. The difference is the size range. The 22 options cover a toddler on a 16 cm flat with clips through an adult who needs a size 9 dome, so families can buy the same kippah for everyone. The black twill rim keeps the edge from fraying and gives a neat outline.

Frequently asked questions
Which flat sizes come with clips?
The 16, 18 and 20 cm flat kippot are each also offered with clips, which help keep a flat kippah in place, especially on children.
What is the difference between a dome size and a flat size?
Dome sizes 1 to 9 are shaped kippot that sit on the crown. Flat sizes are measured straight across in centimetres and lie flatter on the head.
Four panel or six panel black velvet?
This is four-panel, with a cross seam on top. The six-panel version has a rounder dome; both use the same black velvet.
How do I keep black velvet looking new?
Brush it gently in one direction, keep it in a case or on a flat surface, and avoid heat, which crushes the pile.
Which size fits most adult men?
Size 5 fits most teens and adult men; sizes 6 to 9 are for larger heads. For flats, most adults choose 18 to 20 cm.
