Product Insights
Priced at $150 CAD (though noted at $59.95 relative to competitors), this 100% cotton knitted-in checkerboard sweater from Berlin brand Prohibited, exclusive to Djab Canada, references skate culture and Tommy Hilfiger prep, with an oversized dropped-shoulder fit requiring size adjustment and cold wash care, plus an embroidered chest emblem.
Verified claims
- Lineage
- Checkerboard motif moves from 1977 Vans sneakers to Tommy Hilfiger sweaters; this knit uses it in a category those icons rarely explore.

- Knit
- 100% cotton with checkerboard pattern knitted into fabric, not printed, a step up from mass-market polyester blends.
- Exclusivity
- Berlin brand, exclusive to Djab Canada, with checkerboard motif rooted in skate culture.
- Oversized fit
- Oversized with dropped shoulders; size down for a regular silhouette.
- Fit comparison
- Short-sleeve oversized streetwear take on checkerboard sweaters.

- Cold gentle wash and low heat dry prevent shrinkage and pilling.
- Chest emblem
- The chest emblem is embroidered for a tactile, premium feel.
