Eggplant Kippah – Cotton Yarmulke

The Eggplant Kippah is a plain four-panel cotton twill yarmulke in a deep plum purple, offered in 5 sizes (2 to 6) for $9.99. The colour is a saturated reddish purple, like the skin of an eggplant, and the fabric shows a fine diagonal twill. There is no print or contrast: the rim is a narrow band of the same purple cotton. Inside, the lining is a dark charcoal grey with the size number and the iKippah logo printed in white. Sold by Judaica Square, shipping from Lakewood, NJ.

Why customers choose it

Solid-colour kippot usually stop at black, navy and grey, and this one fills the gap with a rich plum. The twill cotton gives it a soft, slightly matte finish that makes the colour look deep rather than shiny. With nothing printed on it, it works for a teen who wants to stand out a little and for a man who likes colour but not novelty. iKippah pitches it as a colour that pairs with a lot of wardrobes, and plum does sit well with grey and navy.

Size guide

Sizing is guidance, not a promise — heads vary. When you are between two sizes, the larger one sits better.
