| - Anyone who really knows me understands my love and hate relationship with Urban Outfitters. Like Kat F., I love the website, but personally, I recoil with the thought of perusing the store for my item(s) of interest. Looking around when I'm not in search of anything is a hoot, however.
While a significant portion of my wardrobe comes from UO, not everything is made alike, many of their items are of dubious quality, and generally, yes, most items do go on sale. They're not nearly as overpriced as Anthropologie, their sister store, though almost everything at UO is made of similar quality.
Some of their private lines are made much better than others, like Tula, Silence & Noise and Lyell. The lines I tend to stay away from because of history and bad experience are Kimchi and Lux.
It's really fun to go looking at all parts of the store, even their guys section, since you have no idea what you'll find; borderline racist t-shirt slogans, hideously 'ironic' sweater stripes on pants, you name it.
This location is far more touristy than their store on Queen St, but this location seems to have a far greater selection and better hours.
These days I prefer to buy online because of their $10 flat rate shipping price on everything under $150. Plus, it gives me more time to spend sipping mocha in my couch.
