                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)


NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all of the
information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for
complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments
(consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included.  Operating results for the three months ended
April 2, 1994 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected
for the year ending December 31, 1994.  For further information, refer to the
consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Corporation's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 1, 1994.

NOTE B - EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

Primary earnings per share are computed by dividing net income, after deducting
preferred dividends, by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding.  Fully diluted earnings per share assume the conversion of
Preferred Stock and the exercise of stock options that have a dilutive effect.

NOTE C - LONG-TERM DEBT

At April 2, 1994, $100.0 million of commercial paper is classified as long-term
debt pursuant to the Corporation's intent to refinance the obligation on a
long-term basis.  On April 6, 1994, the Corporation issued $100.0 million of
7.60% notes due 2004.

NOTE D - CAPITAL

There are 150,000,000 authorized shares of Common Stock, no par value - stated
capital $1 a share.  At April 2, 1994, there were 64,583,672 shares
outstanding, excluding 1,769,197 treasury shares.  At January 1, 1994 and April
3, 1993, there were 64,488,660 and 64,298,235 shares outstanding, excluding
1,769,131 and 1,767,131 treasury shares, respectively.

There are 25,000,000 authorized shares of Preferred Stock, $1 par value.  Of
these shares, 2,000,000 were designated as Series A, of which none have been
issued, and 2,105,263 shares were designated and issued as 6.75% Series B
Preferred Stock, of which 2,043,366 shares were outstanding at April 2, 1994,
2,050,491 at January 1, 1994 and 2,067,185 at April 3, 1993.

               MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                      CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Consolidated net sales increased 10% for the first quarter compared with the
first quarter of 1993.  Of the total increase, $78 million represents sales of
divisions acquired since last year's first quarter.  With net income flat for
the quarter, earnings per share declined slightly due to higher average shares
outstanding from the public offering of Common Stock completed in late January
1993.

During the quarter, the Corporation was reorganized into five new business
groups consisting of Jeanswear, Decorated Knitwear, Intimate Apparel, Playwear
and Specialty Apparel. Sales and operating profit by business group are 
summarized as follows:

The Jeanswear business group consists of the Lee and Wrangler divisions in the
United States and in international markets, primarily in Europe.  This business
group also includes Girbaud, which designs and markets licensed jeanswear





                                      -8-

products in the United States under the Marithe & Francois Girbaud(R) label.
Sales and operating profit increased strongly in international markets.
Domestically, operating profit increased at Lee and Wrangler despite flat
sales, but sales and profits declined at Girbaud, where consumer resistance to
premium-priced jeans has impacted performance since mid-1993.

The Decorated Knitwear business group includes the manufacturing and marketing 
operations of Bassett-Walker, Nutmeg, Cutler sports apparel and JanSport
imprinted apparel.  The sales increase in the current quarter was due 
primarily to the addition of Nutmeg and Cutler, both newly acquired in 
January 1994.  Sales and profits for the first quarter are at an expected low 
level due to the seasonal nature of this group.  

The Intimate Apparel business group includes the operations of Vanity Fair      
Mills and Barbizon domestically and the intimate apparel divisions in Europe. 
Quarterly sales for the group rose modestly as a result of increased sales of
Vassarette products at Vanity Fair.  Operating margin improvements were posted
for all divisions included in the business group.

The Playwear business group consists of Healthtex, the playwear and sleepwear
operations of Cutler and the preschool sizes of Lee and Wrangler in the United
States.  Playwear sales increased primarily due to the acquisition of Cutler in
1994.  Quarterly operating profits exceeded the prior year period due to
the inclusion of Cutler and significantly higher margins in all other divisions.

The Specialty Apparel business group consists primarily of the Red Kap
and Jantzen divisions and JanSport equipment.  The group's sales and operating
profit increases resulted primarily from the higher volume experienced at Red
Kap.

Overall, gross margins increased slightly to 32.3% of sales from 31.8% in 1993, 
due primarily to reduced use of outside contractors in the Jeanswear group.

Marketing, administrative and general expenses were 22.6% of sales, compared
with 21.8% in the first quarter of 1993.  The increase is attributable to
higher distribution and other costs.  Marketing, administrative and general
expenses as a percent of sales in the first quarter are historically at higher
levels than annual amounts and are not necessarily representative of the trend
expected for the year.

Net interest expense increased due to higher short-term borrowings related to
the Nutmeg and Cutler acquisitions.  The increase in miscellaneous expense
results from higher goodwill amortization related to these acquisitions.

The effective income tax rate for the first quarter of 1994 was 39.8% versus
39.0% for the 1993 period, based on the expected effective rate for the year.
The higher rate results primarily from the change in the United States
corporate income tax rate from 34% to 35% effective August 1993.

</TABLE>

Days' sales  outstanding in  accounts receivable are consistent at all balance
sheet dates.

Inventories are higher than at the comparable date in the prior year and at
year-end 1993 levels due to the acquisitions of Nutmeg and Cutler in January
1994.  Inventories also increased from year-end 1993 to meet seasonal
requirements.

During the 1994 first quarter, short-term borrowings were used to finance 
the purchases of Nutmeg and Cutler.  In addition, the Corporation used
short-term borrowings to fund the January 1994 redemption of $100.0 million of
8.00% notes due in 1997.  On April 6, 1994, the redeemed notes were refinanced
with 10 year 7.60% notes.
