 PROFILE
Thanks to TV and the Internet, even farm kids know what's fashion-forward. With some 275 stores located mainly in midwestern malls, The Buckle sells fashion-conscious 12- to 24-year-olds the clothes they've just got to have: mid- to high-priced casual apparel, including such brand names as Dr. Martens, Fossil, Lucky, Polo, and Silver. Branded goods account for about 85% of The Buckle's sales; its stores also offer private-label clothes. The Buckle operates stores in 36 states under the names Buckle and The Buckle; it also has an online store. Born and raised in Nebraska, it has expanded into the South and West. Chairman Daniel Hirschfeld, the founder's son, owns almost 66% of The Buckle.
