Which should you buy?
At the same price this is purely fit and vibe. Buy the Nike if you want a more forgiving, everyday tapered jogger with mainstream brand recognition. Choose the Gymshark if you train and want the slim, fitted look it's cut for, and size up if you're between sizes since it runs lean. Neither is a clear value winner over the other; pick by how tight you want the leg.
