Exactly what I needed was happily what I got.My review might not be useful for everyone, so please bear with me while I explain. I am a Christian; not Jewish, but I have recently been moved to make my daily prayers and meditation a matter of greater solemnity. When I prayed about this issue the thought came to mind that covering my head during prayer would be one way to show greater respect and decorum. Ordinary hats seemed completely inappropriate, but a kippot seemed perfect for this purpose, so I bought this one. I've been using it now for nearly a month and it fits my size 7 head and suits me perfectly. It stays in place when I raise and lower my head, and has never shifted in the slightest, even without using the little hair clip that comes with it. Between the suede and the black colour, it does collect and show my dandruff, but taking a moment to clean it with a soft hat-brush after every use only serves (for me) to add even greater solemnity to my prayer times.This is a 6 inch kippah, measures 6 inches in diameter across the circular bottom, larger across the dome.So its exactly the size, as described. Its a very nice suede, soft with a really good "weight" to it. The stitching isa zig-zag stitch, holding the pieces and bordering together.I am bald and this smaller kippah actually stays on my head without any help. The suede is heavy enough that it holdsitself nicely down and molds itself when it warms and shapes itself to my head. Since my head is shaven, the suede workslike Velcro with my head-stubble :D However if I stared at the sky or went jogging in Chicago, its going to get blown off.So its a great price, good quality, nice weighted suede so it will conform to your head. It comes with a clip, and I plan to buyseveral more in various colours. Blue Suede Kippah, uh-huh, thank you very much :PThis was slightly smaller in diameter than i expected, but that's my own fault. As a mostly bald guy with remaining hair cropped fuzzy-short, I was hoping for a more "skull hugging" yarmulke. This is six inches across, not measured linearly but along the curvature. Fortunately, it does seem to have enough "grip" to stay on my head if i don't look up at the sky. I typically wear about a Large hat, BTW. I think my head is about 23.25 inches around.Craftsmanship seems fine. Think of four pie-shaped pieces, each with piping around the perimeter, then each sewn together. This stitching won't hold up to a perfectionist's eye, but seems perfectly acceptable to me. And it's all black-on-black, anyway. I wore it to services the other day and felt completely in place.Good quality item, appears slightly more turquoise than green irl.I am not Jewish. But my godson is. I wanted to give him a nice Yarmulke for his wedding. I didn't know where to begin looking for one. Eventually, I went to Amazon. From there I was directed to Zion Judaica. The item I chose arrived very quickly and was beautifully constructed. I was impressed. I doubt if I will be a regular customer (LOL). However, if I ever need another Jewish item, I am definitely going to this company first.These are more for children than adults but they do what they were created to do... honor Jewish tradition and the spirit of the Kippa. We are not to cover the whole head but cover just the tiny back crown of the head and these, on a man's head, just barely do that. It does come with a hair clip and that was nice. All in all... grood quality, price and function.it wonderfulMuito agradecido.It was great gag jokePerfect as usual
