Navy Velvet Kippah, Brown Rim Yarmulke

The Navy Velvet Kippah with Brown Rim is a four-panel navy velvet yarmulke for men and boys, sold in 4 sizes (2 to 5) for $9.99. The crown is dark navy velvet; the rim is a mid-brown band with a visibly slubbed, linen-like weave, closer to a taupe-brown than chocolate. The warm edge against cool navy is a combination borrowed from menswear, where navy jackets are routinely worn with brown shoes and belts. Sold by Judaica Square, shipping from Lakewood, NJ.

How this compares

Best for

• Khaki chinos, a tan suit or brown shoes, where a black kippah looks stark
• Men who want navy velvet with an earthy rather than bright accent
• Older boys from size 2 upward who wear navy school uniforms
• A Shabbos kippah that bridges dressy and relaxed

Not the right choice if

• You need a size 1 for a toddler; this design starts at size 2
• You need a size above 5 or a flat profile
• Your community only wears black velvet
• You want a high-contrast rim; brown on navy is deliberately low-key

Why customers choose it

Navy and brown is one of the oldest pairings in men's clothing, and this kippah puts it on your head. The brown rim is textured rather than smooth, so it reads like linen or hopsack, softening the dressier velvet crown. It suits men whose wardrobe leans toward tan chinos, brown loafers and navy blazers more than black suits.

Size guide

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

Frequently asked questions

Is the brown rim dark chocolate or lighter?
It is a mid-brown with a greyish, taupe cast and a slubbed texture, lighter than chocolate and darker than camel.

Why is there no size 1 in this style?
This style comes in sizes 2 to 5 only. For a toddler, a size 1 is offered in other navy velvet designs such as the burgundy or grey rim.

How does it compare with the black velvet brown-rim kippah?
The rim is the same warm mid-brown. The black crown is dressier and more traditional; the navy crown is softer and goes more easily with tan and grey.

What should I wear this with?
Navy or grey suits, khaki chinos and brown shoes. The brown edge ties the kippah to leather accessories.

How do I keep the velvet looking new?
Brush it lightly in one direction, store it flat away from heat, and avoid crushing it in a pocket.
