If one was to start their own minhag and wear a Borseliono without a brim, would that be viewed as a NEW kipah? At some point, doesn’t a kipah made with feaux fur look like a shtreimlach that shrunk from the rain or is being worn by an ehrliche yid/animal rights machmir obsessed with tikun olam? It all depends on your perspective and that of the individual who may be trying to either identify with/distinguish himself from the local tzibur.
