Description
The Gray Crocodile Kippah is a four-panel grey velvet yarmulke for men and boys with a crocodile-skin texture, offered in 9 sizes at $9.99. The whole crown is a mid-grey velvet embossed with a crocodile scale pattern: rows of small raised scales along the sides and larger rounded plates on the front panel. The pressed pattern catches the light in silvery highlights. There is no contrasting rim; the grey runs uninterrupted to the edge. Sold by Judaica Square, shipping from Lakewood, NJ.

Why customers choose it
The crocodile emboss turns a quiet grey into a statement without adding any colour, so it still pairs with grey suits. The pressed scales reflect light differently as you move, which gives it depth in person and in photos. Because the texture does the work, it looks dressed-up at a simcha yet quiet enough for weekday davening.

Frequently asked questions
Is this real crocodile?
No. It is grey velvet with a crocodile-scale pattern pressed into the surface.
Does the crocodile pattern cover the whole kippah?
Yes, all four panels carry the texture, with the largest scales on the front panel.
How should I care for embossed velvet?
Brush gently and avoid crushing it in a pocket, which can flatten the pattern.
Is there a navy version?
iKippah mentions a navy crocodile velvet; we also carry a navy crocodile leather kippah.
What sizes are offered?
Sizes 1 to 6 plus flat 16, 18 and 20 cm.
