Alo High-Waist Airlift Legging vs ASICS Gel-Nimbus 27
Sqwod verdict
Our pick: ASICS Gel-Nimbus 27 takes it: 83 vs 70.
Both are strong: the call comes down to what you prioritise:
- Alo High-Waist Airlift Legging: You want a premium, sculpting, sheeny compression legging for strength or studio-to-street wear and accept the price.
- ASICS Gel-Nimbus 27: You coach runners who want maximum underfoot protection for easy days, long slow distance, or higher-mileage and heavier runners.

from US$134
A durable, compressive, aesthetically premium legging that rates strongly on product: weaker on brand-service reputation, and a premium price with no pockets.

from €129.90
A supremely comfortable, stable max-cushion daily trainer for easy miles: best bought on discount as the outgoing model.
