Which should you buy?
Sixty dollars separates a polished slim hoodie from a dramatic oversized one, so fit decides this, not price. Buy the Tom Ford for a refined, glamorous, true-to-size piece with a silk-blend hand. Pay the extra $60 for the Balenciaga only if you want the extremely boxy, logo-forward silhouette and thick ~15oz fleece. Note Balenciaga's cut runs very oversized, so size down or skip it if you want anything close to fitted.
