Kith vs Represent: which sweatpant wins?

Kith's Williams ($160) is plush ~12oz brushed cotton fleece in a clean tapered, refined cut; Represent's Owners Club ($170) uses a heavier brushed ~12oz fleece in a relaxed, roomy silhouette with elastic cuffs that runs large. Both are ~12oz and both lean on brand cachet, so the $10 gap buys a roomier cut and embroidery, not better cloth.

Which should you buy?
At ~12oz each, neither earns its price on fabric, and both specs say so. Buy the $160 Kith if you want a clean, true-to-size taper and a more tailored look. Pay the extra $10 for the Represent if you specifically want the roomy, relaxed silhouette and muted-tone streetwear look, but size down because it runs large. Toss-up otherwise, so let the cut decide and keep the $10 if you prefer tapered.
