Which should you buy?
Same $128 either way, so pick on use. Buy the Tracksmith if you want a warm, heavy everyday hoodie with real cotton weight and don't care about sweating in it. Pay the same for the Rhone if you'll actually train in it and want the anti-odor finish and lighter feel. Neither is the smarter spend; they solve different problems at one price.
