iKippahs responds to families with a custom yechi kippah designed for everyday comfort
Oct 14, 2026
iKippahs of New York has released a custom Yechi kippah collection in washable, lightweight fabrics for children, responding to parent requests for comfortable headwear for daily wear, school and family events.
New York, United States, October 14, 2026 -- NEW YORK, NY — iKippahs, a New York-based maker of fashion-oriented kippahs, has released a custom Yechi kippah collection made from washable, lightweight fabrics and sized for children. The collection responds to requests from parents who asked for headwear that holds up to everyday wear as well as holiday gatherings, school events, and family celebrations.
Parents of young children often weigh practical concerns alongside appearance when choosing religious headwear. Small heads, frequent washing, active play and long days at school or synagogue all place demands on fabric and construction. Industry observers have noted that families increasingly look for children’s accessories that tolerate repeated laundering, though no single published figure specific to kippah purchasing is cited here. The new collection was developed with those everyday conditions in mind.
The custom Yechi kippah line uses lightweight fabrics that can be machine washed, which the company says reduces stiffness and bulk compared with heavier materials such as velvet or leather. The designs carry Yechi embroidery, a motif associated with the Chabad community, and are offered in the 6-panel construction that iKippahs already uses across its catalog. Embroidery and fabric colors vary by style so that families can choose pieces suited to school days, Shabbat or special occasions.
The release also builds on the company’s existing custom-order service, which has supplied kippahs in bulk for weddings, bar mitzvah celebrations, schools and synagogues. Under that service, organizers can request matching pieces in a chosen fabric and color for a group of children or guests. Because the new fabrics are lighter and easier to launder, the company expects them to suit events where children wear the headwear for several hours, as well as repeated use afterward.
“Parents kept telling us the same thing: they wanted a kippah their child would actually keep on, and one that could go through the wash without losing its shape,” said Sarale Seewald, Co-Founder of iKippahs. “This collection came directly from those conversations, and we focused on fabric weight, fit, and washability as the starting points.”
About iKippahs: iKippahs is a New York-based retailer of kippahs, also known as yarmulkes, offering solid and patterned styles in a range of fabrics and colors. Founded in Brooklyn by sisters-in-law Sarale and Dina Seewald, the company has operated since 2014 and sells through its online store. It also fulfills custom bulk orders for weddings, schools, synagogues, and community events.
Families selecting children’s headwear for daily wear or upcoming celebrations, and organizers planning custom group orders, can review iKippahs’ Yechi kippah collection and available fabrics at iKippahs - Custom Yechi Kippah.
