JOHN KRUEGER

Q: ONE STYLE TIP YOU ALWAYS GIVE YOUR CLIENTS?

A: Be authentic to your personal style; don’t chase every trend that is out there. Having said that, don’t be afraid to step out of your comfort zone with colors and patterns. You may surprise yourself! And make fit a major priority!

Q: ONE PIECE OF CLOTHING YOU OWN THAT YOU CAN’T IMAGINE LIVING WITHOUT? 

A. My Boglioli Soft Jackets, Paige Five Pockets, and my collection of Boots.

Q: IN ONE WORD HOW WOULD YOU DEFINE POCKETS?

A. Excellence! Excellence in the product, excellence in service, excellence in relationships.

Q: WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE BRAND RIGHT NOW?

A. Emanuel Berg. Whether a crisp white dress shirt, printed sport-shirt, or the stretch knit button-up, I can’t get enough of them.

Q: “HOW DO YOU DEFINE YOUR PERSONAL STYLE? ”

A. Casual Chic. Most days at the store you will find me in a soft jacket and five-pocket pants. I like a tailored look but must be very comfortable at the same time.

Q: WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE SEASON? “

A. Without a doubt it is Fall. As a native northerner, I love it when the weather changes. Fall is a great time for luxurious fabrics, rich colors, and the opportunity to layer. It also allows me to wear all of the boots in my closet!

Q: WHAT DO YOU LIKE MOST ABOUT YOUR JOB? “

A. Being able to cultivate meaningful relationships with our customers and working with some of the most knowledgeable professionals in the Men’s business. I continue to learn every day and it is a privilege to work alongside my teammates.
