Meet the team:

Kerry Grant – Men’s Shoes

What is your favorite gift from Buckle’s Gift Guide?
Our Outpost Makers cologne! Bergamot is the main top note which makes this cologne a go-to for all occasions. And it’s only $36.95!

What is your favorite holiday food?
Christmas candy is where it’s at…but no peppermints. Save those for grandma!

Natalie Patton – Men’s Branded Knits

What’s your favorite gift from Buckle’s Gift Guide?
I love a new pair of shoes, especially boots this time of year. Shoes are a great tool to dress up an outfit or keep it casual. Because of all the snow, Timberland’s have been my go-to.

What is the best gift you’ve ever received?
My very own Minnie Mouse telephone for my bedroom. I was in 4th grade and I was so excited to have my own landline to call my friends!

Megan McClure – Men’s Wovens & Outerwear

What’s your favorite thing about the holidays?
The preparation! It’s a mix of excitement and stress…but in a good way. Christmas movies, holiday baking, light displays, family time – I love the memories made.

What is your favorite holiday food?
Candy, candy canes, candy corn, and syrup #ELF.

What is the best gift you’ve ever received?
Easy Bake Oven! I was seven and it was the most beautiful thing I’d ever seen. I made everything from brownies to muffins to an attempt at meatloaf. Needless to say, the meatloaf turned out to be quite the smoky situation (sorry, mom).

Melissa Sperfslage – Men’s Wovens & Outerwear

What’s your favorite thing about the holidays?
Spending time with family making Christmas cookies and playing games!

What is a Christmas tradition you have with your family?
Every year our family goes to cut down a Christmas tree from our farm. We bring it back to the house, make hot chocolate and decorate it!

Maddie Clifford – Buyer Support

What is your favorite gift from Buckle’s Gift Guide?
My favorite gift is obviously denim! It’s the gift you can wear all year long and will never go out of style.

What is a Christmas tradition you have with your family?
We spend all of Christmas Day in our PJs relaxing by the fireplace, and my mom always makes the best cinnamon rolls in the morning. We have a very laid back Christmas, but I wouldn’t want it any other way. 

Jess Kaster – Men’s Branded Denim

What’s your favorite thing about the holidays?
Spending time with family and Christmas decor.

What is a Christmas tradition you have with your family?
Cutting down a real Christmas tree, picking out one ornament from the Tree Farm Shop, and enjoying a cup of hot chocolate with my family. 

Nicole Sullivan – Men’s Private Label Denim

The all matte black Ray-Ban Clubmaster 51 sunglasses. Perfect with any outfit!
