White Night Kippah, Shluf Kappel with Optional Name Embroidery, Four Sizes

The plain classic — a white shluf kappel in 100% cotton, no embroidery and no glow thread, with a wide elastic band around the edge. The width of that band is what matters here. A wide elastic spreads the tension instead of digging a line into a child's forehead, and it is the reason this one stays on through a full night rather than being found under the bed.

Four sizes are offered, small through extra large, covering a range from a young child up to an older bochur. You can also have the child's first name embroidered on it: add the kappel to the cart and a prompt appears for the name. There is room for a first name only, and once the name is stitched the kappel is his and nobody else's, so check the spelling carefully before you submit it. For an image rather than a name, ask for a quote first.

In a house with several boys the name is not a nicety, it is the only way anyone gets their own kappel back after Shabbos. Most families order two or three at once for exactly that reason.
