Description
The Splotch Black Kippah is an all-black textured cotton yarmulke for men and boys, available in 9 sizes at $9.99. The fabric is woven, not printed: small raised, rounded squares sit in a loose checkerboard across the crown, black on black, so the pattern only shows when light catches it. From a few steps away it reads as a solid black kippah. The four panels meet at a neat centre point, and the edge is piped in the same textured black cloth. Sold by Judaica Square, shipping nationwide.

Best for
- Schools that want a dark kippah but allow texture
- Men who like black but find plain cotton flat
- Wearing with a black or charcoal suit on weekdays
- A father and son set, with sizes from 1 to a 20cm flat
Not the right choice if
- A yeshiva that requires black velvet specifically
- Someone wanting a visible print or a colour accent
- Shoppers who expect paint splotches; the pattern is a woven texture
- A slick, smooth finish like satin or leather
Why customers choose it
Many boys have to wear black, and this is one of the most discreet ways to make black less ordinary. The raised blocks are woven into the cloth, so there is no ink to fade and no contrast colour to break a school rule. It also suits men who want a weekday kippah with a little more depth than plain cotton. The size run is wide, from a toddler size 1 through size 6 and three flat cuts.

Frequently asked questions
Is the Splotch Black kippah fully black?
Yes. Crown, pattern and rim are all black; the design is a raised texture you notice mainly in light.
Does the word splotch mean paint spots?
No. On this kippah it describes a woven checkerboard of soft, rounded raised blocks, not splashes of colour.
Will it pass a black-kippah school rule?
It is entirely black, so many schools accept it. If the rule is black velvet only, it will not qualify.
Which flat sizes are offered?
16cm, 18cm and 20cm flat, in addition to sizes 1 through 6.
How does it compare with the tan Splotch?
It is the same raised-block weave; the tan version is a warm sand colour better suited to summer and light clothing.
