Clothing rental service Nuuly, owned by Urban Outfitters, has achieved profitability, surpassing rival Rent the Runway in reaching this milestone. Nuuly reported an 86% increase in revenue and an operating profit of $300,000 during its fiscal third quarter, with an active subscriber count of 198,000. This marks the first time Nuuly has turned a profit since its launch in 2019. In contrast, Rent the Runway, which has been operating for nearly 15 years, has yet to achieve profitability. The success of Nuuly is attributed to its partnership with Urban Outfitters, which provides inventory and covers some costs. Both companies offer monthly clothing rental services, but Rent the Runway focuses more on designer brands, while Nuuly initially targeted casual wear.

Urban Outfitters is facing backlash from millennials for selling discontinued models of Apple iPods at steep markups and labeling them as "vintage retro" on their website. The iPods, sourced from Retrospekt, a Milwaukee-based business that restores and sells vintage electronics, are being sold for hundreds of dollars each, while similar devices can be found on other resale websites for as low as $35. Younger generations, including Gen Z, are embracing analog devices like iPods as a more intentional way to consume music, in contrast to the endless streaming options available on smartphones. Critics argue that Urban Outfitters' resale values are too high, and some hope that the trend will not extend to other nostalgic tech items.
