Why Real Egyptian Cotton Is So Expensive | So Expensive | Business Insider
Sheets made with Egyptian cotton can cost over $900 — but not all cotton is created equal. Many products use the term “Egyptian cotton,” but experts say there isn’t enough Egyptian cotton grown to actually make all of the products that claim to use it. A lot of the Egyptian cotton you see online may be fake. The highest-quality Egyptian…

It’s so crazy to me that the United States allows false advertising in every sector. Food is so bad! A cow is considered grass fed beef if it’s eaten grass one time in its life even if it was grass pellets. Then they charge more for it and it’s allowed by the FDA. Same with this. Egyptian cotton products are sold for so much more money! I don’t care that you’re lying about your product unless you try and charge a premium price for an inferior product
It might be better, but not enough to justify the price. Its called marketing.
Pakistan is facing a similar issue, where Himalayan Pink Salt from Pakistan is sold by Indian companies as an Indian product, yet the salt is only available in Pakistan. More needs to be done to protect the identity of the source of raw materials. In the UK atleast, the salt is now being advertised as a product of Pakistan, but Indian companies continuing to sell this salt as theirs in the US and the far east.
Chia blockchain is used by the World Bank to track and carbon credits from origin to redemption… I reckon it can be used to trace genuine egyptian cotton from field to product.

Everyone knows that it’s only real Egyptian cotton if it comes from the Egypt region of France.

My family are several generation farmers of many things, including cotton. They tell people constantly that the organic cotton they believe they're getting is not and is sprayed with pesticides. Dishonest advertising is everywhere.
Climate cycle not climate change climate change wants to put the blame on humans and it’s a lie the earth is greener than ever before, The climate has always gone from hot to cold throughout history it’s normal despite what the trillionairs making money off of the green lie tell you
Egyptian cotton is one thing and then have to note that thread count as well
Muslim trying to conduct legal business.. racist radical criminals in the filthy fbi proceed to falsely accuse and attempt a nazi germany attack on constitutional liberties in America.. lawsuit and jail will be the reward of racists behind a badge attempting to attack the constitution as no one is above the law
Still waiting for an actual explanation on why it is so expensive.
Also, if I plant the same crop somewhere else, it might not get the branding but it will still be the same basic fabric, so why bother with Egypt's opinion or whether you have their stamp or not? I'd rather have it grown locally and cheaper than have it come from Egypt.
Why is everything about climate change. Every one of these videos always ends with climate change.
American Supima cotton is better and actually consistent. Since it's a trademark you can at least know you're getting what you're buying.

I wanted to know what is real cost of these threads and sheets?
Since they are looking the same as any other cotton balls keeping them rare and inflating the price is a poor choice.
Give the seeds to other countries to increase the yield and lower the price.
We have plenty of these plants in the Philippines. We just burned them because it's not edible
Given its unfortunate past, it is surprising cotton has not been cancelled in the current year and replaced with sustainable synthetics made chemically from petroleum products.
