But if you wear the clothes as long as possible you the prices maybe are quite fine. When you buy the pullover for 175โ‚ฌ you can wear it for 5 to maybe 10+ years. Also your money stays in Europe, when more people buy from them the prices will go down, you buy high quallity clothes, ... So I guess it's fine.

I don't mind paying more for quality and i had my eyes on a german company that makes clothing out of wood. I don't really remember the brand but 120 something euros for a shirt is rough, because i love to rip them or make them dirty beyond fixing.

I see, I usually wear my clothes to death but if you get your clothes dirty very frequently these are to expensive. But maybe if people would buy "too" expensive clothes they would care more about them with the goal to fight fast fashion.
