Velvet or Leather?

Velvet and leather are two of the most popular kippah materials, but they create different looks.

Velvet has a soft, classic appearance and is especially popular for Shabbos, yom tov, school, and shul. Black velvet is one of the most traditional choices.

Leather has a smoother, more modern look. It works well for everyday wear, business-casual outfits, and simchas. Leather is also easy to wipe clean.

Choose velvet for a classic traditional look. Choose leather for a polished everyday style. Many customers keep one of each.

Both velvet and leather Kipahton kippahs include a built-in clip for secure all-day wear.
