Salary benchmarks
Our take
Urban Outfitters started out in the 1970s as a quirky little boutique in Philadelphia with a love for creativity and self-expression. More than 50 years later, it's grown into a globally recognised brand, but it hasn't forgotten where it came from.
It's known for its knack of catching (and keeping) attention with its unique mix of clothing, homeware, and vintage treasures. It connects with a community of over 10M shoppers and is always staying ahead of the trends.
While the brand might feel like an old favourite, it's far from slowing down. It just posted record earnings, with $143.9M in profit for Q2 2025 and strong growth across all its brands (including its sister companies Anthropologie, Free People, FP Movement, and Nuuly). New stores are opening and digital sales are booming, the brand has truly proven itself to be a powerhouse in the retail space.
