The prices are the way they are because it is real wool, which doesn’t grow on trees.
If I take a look at other wool pullovers/sweaters from other companies they range from 80-130€ some peeking at about 200€.
So it is that particular material and thus product, not the company that is pricy.
So I don’t quite get your “grow on trees” analogy. They just grow on sheep instead, and require harvesting like they would from a tree, and require food and care like trees. And it’s not like you’re killing them off. So if anything, it’s almost exactly like “growing on trees”
Despite it’s German name Baumwolle, cotton doesn’t grow on trees, like e.g. Kapok does, but on annually cultivated plants which makes it faster to grow, scalable and easier to harvest.

Cotton is cheaper. It grows on

Okay. Plants instead of trees. It was a false friend, thanks for pointing out. Striked tree out for good measure.
