Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the results of operations for the interim periods have been included. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Because of the seasonal nature of the business, results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of a full year's operations. The accounting policies followed by the Company and additional footnotes are reflected in the consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended February 3, 2018 , included in The Buckle, Inc.'s 2017 Form 10-K. The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of February 3, 2018 is derived from audited financial statements. For purposes of this report, unless the context otherwise requires, all references herein to the “Company”, “Buckle”, “we”, “us”, or similar terms refer to The Buckle, Inc. and its subsidiary. The Company follows generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). References to GAAP in these notes are to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”). There were no significant changes to our significant accounting policies as disclosed in Note A to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 3, 2018 , except as set forth below. Revenue Recognition - Retail store sales are recorded, net of expected returns, upon the purchase of merchandise by customers. Online sales are recorded, net of expected returns, when the merchandise is tendered for delivery to the common carrier. Shipping fees charged to customers are included in revenue and shipping costs are included in selling expenses. Merchandise returns are estimated based upon the historical average sales return percentage and recognized at the transaction value. The Company also recognizes a return asset and a corresponding adjustment to cost of sales for the Company's right to recover returned merchandise, which is measured at the estimated carrying value, less any expected recovery costs. The Company recognizes revenue from sales made under its layaway program upon delivery of the merchandise to the customer. The Company records the sale of gift cards and gift certificates as a current liability and recognizes a sale when a customer redeems the gift card or gift certificate. Gift card and gift certificate breakage is recognized as revenue in proportion to the redemption pattern of customers by applying an estimated breakage rate. The estimated breakage rate is based on historical issuance and redemption patterns and is re-assessed by the Company on a regular basis. The Company recognizes a current liability for the down payment and subsequent installment payments made when merchandise is placed on layaway and recognizes layaways as a sale at the time the customer makes final payment and picks up the merchandise. Sales tax collected from customers is excluded from revenue and is included as part of "accrued store operating expenses" on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. The Company's Guest Loyalty program allows participating guests to earn points for every qualifying purchase, which (after achievement of certain point thresholds) are redeemable as a discount off a future purchase. Reported revenue is net of both current period reward redemptions and accruals for estimated future rewards earned under the Guest Loyalty program. A liability has been recorded for future rewards based on the Company's estimate of how many earned points will turn into rewards and ultimately be redeemed prior to expiration, which is included in "accrued store operating expenses." Through partnership with Comenity Bank, the Company offers a private label credit card ("PLCC"). Customers with a PLCC are enrolled in our B-Rewards incentive program and earn points for every qualifying purchase made on their card. At the end of each rewards period, customers who have exceeded a minimum point threshold receive a reward to be redeemed on a future purchase. The B-Rewards program also provides other discount and promotional opportunities to cardholders on a routine basis. Reported revenue is net of both current period reward redemptions, current period discounts and promotions, and accruals for estimated future rewards earned under the B-Rewards program. A liability has been recorded for future rewards based on the Company's estimate of how many earned points will turn into rewards and ultimately be redeemed prior to expiration, which is included in "gift certificates redeemable" on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) , which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 605, Revenue Recognition . The new revenue recognition standard requires entities to recognize revenue in a way that depicts the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In preparation for the implementation of the new standard, the Company determined the adoption of Topic 606 would affect the timing of recognition and the income statement classification of gift card and gift certificate breakage, the timing of revenue recognition for sales of merchandise shipped to customers, and the presentation of the allowance for estimated sales returns. The Company adopted Topic 606 on February 4, 2018, using the modified retrospective transition method. Under this transition method, the prior period comparative information has not been adjusted and continues to be reported under Topic 605, with the cumulative effective of adopting the new standard recorded as a $389 adjustment increasing retained earnings as of February 4, 2018. The effect of the adoption of ASU 2014-09 on our consolidated balance sheet as of May 5, 2018 was as follows: As Reported Adjustments Excluding Topic 606 Adjustments Consolidated Balance Sheet Amounts Inventory 118,181 1,288 116,893 Accrued store operating expenses 19,699 1,592 18,107 Accounts payable 25,818 (693 ) 26,511 Retained earnings 253,036 389 252,647 The adoption of ASU 2014-09 did not have a material impact on the Company's results of operations for the fiscal quarter ended May 5, 2018 . The adoption did, however, impact the income statement classification of gift card and gift certificate breakage. For the quarter ended May 5, 2018 , the Company recognized $245 of gift card and gift certificate breakage as revenue. For the quarter ended April 29, 2017 , the Company recognized $300 of breakage in "other income."

Trading securities are held in a Rabbi Trust, intended to fund the Company’s deferred compensation plan, and are classified in long-term investments. The Company’s investments in auction-rate securities (“ARS”) are classified as available-for-sale and reported at fair market value. As of both May 5, 2018 and February 3, 2018 , the reported investment amount is net of $120 of temporary impairment to account for the impairment of certain securities from their stated par value. The $120 temporary impairment is reported, net of tax, as an “accumulated other comprehensive loss” of $89 in stockholders’ equity as of both May 5, 2018 and February 3, 2018 . For the investments considered temporarily impaired, all of which have been in loss positions for over a year, the Company believes that these ARS can be successfully redeemed or liquidated in the future at par value plus accrued interest. The Company believes it has the ability and maintains its intent to hold these investments until such recovery of market value occurs; therefore, the Company believes the current lack of liquidity has created the temporary impairment in valuation. As of May 5, 2018 and February 3, 2018 , all of the Company’s investments in ARS were classified in long-term investments.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurements	Fair Value Measurements Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Financial assets and liabilities measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following categories: • Level 1 – Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Short-term and long-term investments with active markets or known redemption values are reported at fair value utilizing Level 1 inputs. • Level 2 – Observable market-based inputs (either directly or indirectly) such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or inputs that are corroborated by market data. • Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data and are projections, estimates, or interpretations that are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets. As of May 5, 2018 and February 3, 2018 , the Company held certain assets that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis including available-for-sale and trading securities. The Company’s financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows: Fair Value Measurements at Reporting Date Using Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets Significant Observable Inputs Significant Unobservable Inputs May 5, 2018 (Level 1) (Level 2) (Level 3) Total Available-for-sale securities: Auction-rate securities $ — $ — $ 1,555 $ 1,555 Trading securities (including mutual funds) 15,337 — — 15,337 Totals $ 15,337 $ — $ 1,555 $ 16,892 Fair Value Measurements at Reporting Date Using Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets Significant Observable Inputs Significant Unobservable Inputs February 3, 2018 (Level 1) (Level 2) (Level 3) Total Available-for-sale securities: Auction-rate securities $ — $ 50 $ 1,555 $ 1,605 Trading securities (including mutual funds) 15,154 — — 15,154 Totals $ 15,154 $ 50 $ 1,555 $ 16,759 Securities included in Level 1 represent securities which have a known or anticipated upcoming redemption as of the reporting date and those that have publicly traded quoted prices. ARS included in Level 2 represent securities which have not experienced a successful auction subsequent to the end of fiscal 2007. The fair market value for these securities was determined by applying a discount to par value based on auction prices for similar securities and by utilizing a discounted cash flow model, using market-based inputs, to determine fair value. The Company used a discounted cash flow model to value its Level 3 investments, using estimates regarding recovery periods, yield, and liquidity. The assumptions used are subjective based upon management’s judgment and views on current market conditions, and resulted in $120 of the Company’s recorded temporary impairment as of May 5, 2018 . The use of different assumptions would result in a different valuation and related temporary impairment charge. Changes in the fair value of the Company’s financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows: Thirteen Weeks Ended May 5, 2018 Fair Value Measurements Using Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) Available-for-Sale Securities Trading Securities Auction-rate Securities Mutual Funds Total Balance, beginning of year $ 1,555 $ — $ 1,555 Total gains and losses: Included in net income — — — Included in other comprehensive income — — — Purchases, Issuances, Sales, and Settlements: Sales — — — Balance, end of quarter $ 1,555 $ — $ 1,555 Thirteen Weeks Ended April 29, 2017 Fair Value Measurements Using Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) Available-for-Sale Securities Trading Securities Auction-rate Securities Mutual Funds Total Balance, beginning of year $ 1,625 $ — $ 1,625 Total gains and losses: Included in net income — — — Included in other comprehensive income — — — Purchases, Issuances, Sales, and Settlements: Sales — — — Balance, end of quarter $ 1,625 $ — $ 1,625 There were no transfers of securities between Levels 1, 2, or 3 during the thirteen week periods ended May 5, 2018 or April 29, 2017 . The Company’s policy is to recognize transfers in and transfers out as of the beginning of the reporting period in which the transfer occurred. The carrying value of cash equivalents approximates fair value due to the low level of risk these assets present and their relatively liquid nature, particularly given their short maturities. The Company also holds certain financial instruments that are not carried at fair value on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, including held-to-maturity securities. Held-to-maturity securities consist primarily of state and municipal bonds. The fair values of these debt securities are based on quoted market prices and yields for the same or similar securities, which the Company determined to be Level 2 inputs. As of May 5, 2018 , the fair value of held-to-maturity securities was $55,579 compared to the carrying amount of $55,684 . As of February 3, 2018 , the fair value of held-to-maturity securities was $55,460 compared to the carrying amount of $55,527 . The carrying values of receivables, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other current liabilities approximates fair value because of their short-term nature. From time to time, the Company measures certain assets at fair value on a non-recurring basis, specifically long-lived assets evaluated for impairment. These are typically store specific assets, which are reviewed for impairment when circumstances indicate impairment may exist due to the questionable recoverability of the carrying values of long-lived assets. If expected future cash flows related to a store’s assets are less than their carrying value, an impairment loss would be recognized for the difference between the carrying value and the estimated fair value of the store's assets. The fair value of the store's assets is estimated utilizing an income-based approach based on the expected cash flows over the remaining life of the store's lease. The amount of impairment related to long-lived assets was immaterial as of both May 5, 2018 and February 3, 2018 .

Stock-Based Compensation	Stock-Based Compensation The Company has several stock option plans which allow for granting of stock options to employees, executives, and directors. The Company has not granted any stock options since fiscal 2008 and there are currently no stock options outstanding. The Company also has a restricted stock plan that allows for the granting of non-vested shares of common stock to employees and executives and a restricted stock plan that allows for the granting of non-vested shares of common stock to non-employee directors. As of May 5, 2018 , 434,191 shares were available for grant under the Company’s various restricted stock plans, of which 388,817 shares were available for grant to executive officers. Compensation expense was recognized during fiscal 2018 and fiscal 2017 for equity-based grants, based on the grant date fair value of the awards. The fair value of grants of non-vested common stock awards is the stock price on the date of grant. Information regarding the impact of compensation expense related to grants of non-vested shares of common stock is as follows: Thirteen Weeks Ended May 5, April 29, Stock-based compensation expense, before tax $ 1,484 $ 1,646 Stock-based compensation expense, after tax $ 1,100 $ 1,037 Non-vested shares of common stock granted during the thirteen week periods ended May 5, 2018 and April 29, 2017 were granted pursuant to the Company’s 2005 Restricted Stock Plan and the Company’s 2008 Director Restricted Stock Plan. Shares granted under the 2005 Plan are typically "performance based" and vest over a period of four years , only upon certification by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors that the Company has achieved its pre-established performance targets for the fiscal year. Certain shares granted under the 2005 Plan, however, are "non-performance based" and vest over a period of four years without being subject to the achievement of performance targets. Shares granted under the 2008 Director Plan vest 25% on the date of grant and then in equal portions on each of the first three anniversaries of the date of grant. A summary of the Company’s stock-based compensation activity related to grants of non-vested shares of common stock for the thirteen week period ended May 5, 2018 is as follows: Shares Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value Non-Vested - beginning of year 470,022 $ 24.63 Granted 374,050 19.60 Forfeited (145,325 ) 20.55 Vested (33,006 ) 20.44 Non-Vested - end of quarter 665,741 $ 22.91 As of May 5, 2018 , there was $9,056 of unrecognized compensation expense related to grants of non-vested shares. It is expected that this expense will be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 2.2 years . The total fair value of shares vested during the thirteen week periods ended May 5, 2018 and April 29, 2017 was $698 and $776 , respectively. During the thirteen week period ended May 5, 2018 , 145,325 shares (representing one-half of the "performance based" shares granted during fiscal 2017 under the 2005 Restricted Stock Plan) were forfeited because the Company did not achieve all of the performance targets established for the fiscal 2017 grants.

Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract]
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements	Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) . This ASU replaces the existing guidance in ASC 840, Leases . The new standard establishes a right-of-use ("ROU") model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years and requires retrospective application. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that adopting this new accounting guidance will have on its consolidated results of operations and financial position, but does expect that it will result in a significant increase in both assets and liabilities related to the Company's leases for retail store locations.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	Commitments and Contingencies Data Security Incident On June 16, 2017, the Company announced that it had become aware that it was a victim of a data security incident in which a criminal entity accessed certain guest credit card information following purchases at some of the Company's retail stores between October 28, 2016 and April 14, 2017. The Company immediately launched a thorough investigation and engaged leading third-party forensic experts to review its systems and secure the affected part of its network. Through that investigation, the Company learned that its store payment data systems were infected with a form of malicious code, which was quickly removed. The Company has taken actions that it believes have contained the issue and has implemented additional security enhancements, and will continue to work vigilantly to pursue this matter to resolution. Based on the forensic investigation, the Company believes that no social security numbers, email addresses, or physical addresses were obtained by those criminally responsible. There is also no evidence that the buckle.com website or buckle.com guests were impacted. Buckle self-reported the issue to the payment card brands and cooperated fully with the card brands, their forensic experts, and law enforcement during the investigation. At this time, it is not possible to reasonably estimate the amount of any potential assessments, fines, penalties, or other liabilities in connection with this incident.
