Buckle will soon be opening in the former Cardboard Heroes location at The Greene. Buckle is one of eight new tenants opening in the mall over the next few months.

The new Buckle store at The Greene Town Center will open July 23, company officials announced Tuesday.

The women and men’s clothing and accessories store will be interviewing for various positions, including assistant manager, full- and part-time sales, freight coordinator and tailor-seamstress. The number of jobs created was not immediately available.

Buckle carries a wide selection of top denim brands, including the company’s exclusive brand, BKE, along with Big Star, Big Star Vintage, Rock Revival, MEK Denim, Miss Me, Buffalo, Reclaim, Silver Jeans, 7 for all Mankind, and Division E.

Buckle will occupy a 5,107-square-foot space at 4480 Cedar Park Drive. That space was previously occupied by sports clothing and merchandise company Cardboard Heroes, which has relocated just down the block to 60 Plum St.

Buckle was one of eight new tenants announced in March to open at The Greene.

The eight new stores, plus the expansion of a hair salon, will fill about 33,000 square feet of leased retail and restaurant space and 1,200 square feet of office space when the new stores open over the first half of 2013. The newly leased space is about evenly split between space that was previously occupied by tenants that moved or departed and space that was previously undeveloped, mall officials said.
