The term "Jewish hat" is nebulous.

If you are referring to skullcap, called yarmulke in Yiddish and kippah in Hebrew, its color in Reform or Conservative Judaism is representative of the personal feelings of the wearer just like the person's choice of t-shirt or pants. In Orthodox Judaism, only black skullcaps are worn, as a sign of respect and uniformity before God.

If you are referring to top-hats or boyar-hats, the shape and color of the hat is indicative of the congregation or tradition of the wearer. Only Orthodox Jews wear such hats and always wear a skullcap underneath.

Answer:Black is seen as a color of modesty and humility.

No it does not. However. Many Orthodox Jewish men only wear black Kippot. Non-Orthodox and some Modern Orthodox Jews wear any color or pattern.
