A slightly overpriced store found primarily in urban areas of North America. The company targets a college-aged audience, but attracts younger and older consumers just as well. While many of the brands they carry are overpriced (Diesel, Lacoste, True Religion, etc.), buyers trust them to be of excellent quality. Most Urban Oufitters shoppers are not looking so much as to fit a mold or put on a 'hipster' persona, but just want to buy good, fashionable clothing. Some think that Urban Outfitterers are trying to stand out as "individuals", but you could say the same about anyone who shops at American Eagle, Abercrombie, Aeropostale, Hollister, Hot Topic, and all the rest - except, unlike Urban Outfitters shoppers, those who shop at the more common stores REALLY want to look like clones (and are still paying for overpriced goods).
Hey, since we're here, why don't we go to Urban Outfitters? I'm sure we can find something that will make us look cool in a young, fashion-aware kinda way. Hopefully no body will perceive us as spoiled rich kids who want to be perceived as individuals even though we've never even had jobs.

Jake - Urban Outfitters' first store was opened in Philadelphia, PA not California....sorry to burst your all knowing bubble
People who don't like Urban Outfitters have this mentality: I think I am bette than you.....sorry you aren't. We are all the same

an ok mainstream hippie store that sells overpriced but good looking vintage,hipster apparal.and Maybe for once people can get their heads out of their asses and realize that not everybody who shops at urban, shops to be witty unique or hipster. maybe then they would see that some people buy stuff their just because they think the overpriced shirt is cute, they have the cash at the moment, and they don't feel like scrounging the earth for a "cheaper" version they'll never find or be as satisfied with.
Tee shirt:"DIE YUPPIE SCUM"

person 1: hey, why don't we check out urban outfitters? it's really trendy.
person 2: No way man. Every one who shops at Urban Outfitters is a poser. They're trying to look like a hippie but they're not at all. Real hippies dont have the money for this overpriced garbage.

You guys are mean. People who shop there aren't trying to be hipsters. People shouldn't judge people on what they wear. If I see a shirt and I think its cute, I buy it if I have the cash. If not oh well.Really cute shirts, jeans, skirts, furnitures. A bit pricey but its worth it.
