Urban Outfitters is an alternative retailer that sells funnie meme tshirts, hoodies, striped shirts, flat shoes for girls, dumb blog-to-books, and colored clothes that alt tweens wear. They also sell quirky homegoods in some regions. It seems like they have 'fallen upon hard times', and their stock continues to plummet. I don't think this story means that their buzz stock is plummeting, but their actual 'money stock', however that works. This is truly a dark day for alternative retailers. U always hear that Am Appy is 'in the shitter'. What will happen if Urby Outtie goes under? Will we be forced to shop at online vintage stores and J.Crews?

It is s000 bad that even the CEO resigned because he has lost touched with the zeitgest of alt.

Urban Outfitters Inc. said that Glen T. Senk, its chief executive, has resigned and will be succeeded by co-founder and Chairman Richard Hayne.

Shares of the retail company, which operates the Anthropologie, Free People, BHLDN and Urban Outfitters brands, fell as much as 17% to $24.24 in midday trading Wednesday.

Anyways, URBY is in CRISIS MODE. I wonder if they will start closing down stores in the widest reaches of suburbia.

Urban Outfitters has suffered from four quarters of sales declines, a problem the company has blamed on tough competition and poor fashion choices that forced markdowns to clear inventory.

Does Urby have 'poor fashion'?
Do u wear Urby?
Does Urby 'try too hard' to start trends, or does it 'adapt to trends' way too late?

Do u think the Navajos ruined Urby Outtie?

A spate of bad publicity has also added to the company's woes. Last year, a jewelry designer accused the retailer of stealing her designs, prompting shoppers to try starting a boycott. Later, the Navajo Nation demanded that Urban Outfitters remove the word "Navajo" from descriptions of its products online (the Navajo Nation holds trademarks on the word).

Does Urban Outfitters deserve 2 die?
R u worried abt #urby?
Will the formative alt retailers 'go out of business'?
How can we save alt retail?
Why did Urby 'go wrong'?
Does Urby make 'shit clothes'?
Would u rather smear ur own poo all over ur own body?
HAve u ever worked at an 'Urban'?
Is there a UO at ur local suburban mall?
Is UO 'where fashion goes to die/be worn by wannabe alt tweens'?
