The chain was established in 1991 due to the diversification of Inditex's commercial objective, which at that time had only Zara stores. It started out as a brand only for the male public, but after a few years of its creation, it introduced a collection for girls in 1998 that has equaled the male line in sales.
In 2010, the brand introduced a new logo and rebranded its European stores.
In February 2019, Pull&Bear partnered with the sports brand Umbro to jointly launch a line of sportswear products.[2]
In March 2022, Pull&Bear ceased operations in Russia in support of Ukraine.[3]
