                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                               September 30, 1995
                                        
                                        
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

   A summary of the company's significant accounting policies is presented on
page 21 of its 1994 Annual Report to Shareholders.  Users of financial
information produced for interim periods are encouraged to refer to the
footnotes contained in the Annual Report to Shareholders when reviewing interim
financial results.  There has been no material change in the accounting policies
followed by the company during 1995.

   In the opinion of management, the accompanying interim financial statements
contain all material adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments, necessary to present fairly the consolidated financial position,
results of operations, cash flows, and shareholders' equity of Justin
Industries, Inc. for interim periods.

Long-Term Debt

   Certain loan agreements contain minimum requirements as to working capital,
cash flow from operations, and tangible net worth and restrictions on redemption
of outstanding stock and change in control of the company.  As of September 30,
1995, the company was in compliance with all such requirements and restrictions.

Earnings Per Share

   Earnings per share are based on the average number of shares of common stock
outstanding during each period and such shares issuable upon assumed exercise of
stock options, using the treasury stock method, adjusted for stock splits.  The
number of shares used in the calculation of earnings per share was 27,494,000 in
1995 and 27,810,000 in 1994.

1994 Acquisition

   Effective August 1, 1994, the Company purchased American Tile Supply Company
and its related companies ("American Tile").  Results of operations of American
Tile are included in the accompanying 1994 statements from the date of
acquisition.

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


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

   Sales - Consolidated net sales for the third quarter of 1995 were $112.4
million versus $119.7 million for the same quarter in 1994, a decrease of 6.1%.
Consolidated net sales for the first nine months of 1995 were $336 million
compared to $344.5 for the nine months ended September 30, 1994.

      Building Materials Segment Sales - Sales in the Building Materials
   segment for 1995's third quarter decreased .9% to $61.9 million compared
   to the same quarter of 1994.  For the nine months ended September 30,
   1995, net sales increased 8% to $180.8 million compared to the same
   period in 1994.  Sales for Acme Brick Company ("Acme") declined
   approximately 10.3% in the third quarter and 9.1% for the nine month
   period of 1995 compared to the same periods a year ago due to declines
   in housing starts in Acme's six state market area in 1995.   The
   acquisition of American Tile Supply Company ("American Tile"), effective
   August 1, 1994, contributed approximately $10 million in revenues during
   1995's third quarter and $29.2 million for the nine month period of
   1995.  Sales for the two months after American Tile's acquisition in
   1994 totaled $6 million.  Featherlite Building Products Corporation's
   sales are ahead of last year's pace by approximately 6.4%, reaching an
   all-time high of $33.5 million for the nine month period.  Increased
   commercial construction activity in its market areas and improved
   pricing contributed to higher sales in both block and cut limestone
   products.  Tradewinds Technologies, Inc., manufacturer of evaporative
   cooling units, posted declines in revenues for the 1995 periods compared
   to a year ago due to unusually mild summer weather in its market areas.
   
      Footwear Segment Sales - Total Footwear sales for the quarter ended
   September 30, 1995 declined 11.7% to $50.6 million from 1994's third
   quarter of $57.3 million.  For the nine months ended September 30, 1995,
   revenues were 12.4% behind the same period a year ago.  All three
   operations, Justin Boot Company, Nocona Boot Company and Tony Lama
   Company, Inc., experienced a slower third quarter in 1995.  While
   average pricing improved, units shipped declined compared to a year ago.
   All lines of footwear experienced declines compared to 1994's periods
   due to slower retail spending nationwide and changes in fashion trends.
   
   Costs and Expenses - The consolidated gross profit margin declined in the
third quarter of 1995 to 35.4% compared to 36.1% in the same quarter of 1994.
For the nine month periods ended September 30, 1994 and 1995, the gross profit
margins were relatively unchanged at 35.2% in 1994 compared to 35.1% in 1995.
Building Materials' margins decreased from 42.5% in 1994's third quarter to
41.5% in the third quarter of 1995.  During the first nine months of 1995, the
ratio for Building Materials declined to 41.3% from 41.8% for the same period in
1994.  While brick margins exceeded those of last year, American Tile's lower
margins for purchased products contributed to the overall decline.  The gross
margin in the Footwear business was 27.9% for the third quarter and first nine
months of 1995 versus 29% for the third quarter and for the first nine months of
1994.  Reduced Footwear sales and production levels have contributed to the
decline in margins.

   Selling, general and administrative expenses increased to 26.1% of sales in
the third quarter of 1995 compared to 22.8% in the third quarter of 1994.  For
the first nine months of 1995, such expenses were 26% of sales compared to 22.7%
during the first nine months of 1994.  The increases are primarily due to lower
sales volumes in the Footwear segment and the acquisition of American Tile
during the third quarter of 1994.  Beginning in the third quarter of 1994, a
program was initiated to reduce general and administrative costs in the Footwear
segment on a long-term basis.  Costs associated with this reorganization have
been incurred throughout 1995.  The program, which includes consolidation of
various administrative and accounting functions, is expected to be completed in
late 1995, with resultant savings to begin in 1996.

                                    (Page 7)
                                        
================================================================================

           MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                      AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)


   Interest expense increased 15.3% in the third quarter to $1,345,000 from
$1,167,000 in the same three month period of 1994.  During the nine months ended
September 30, 1995 compared to the same period in 1994, interest expense
increased $929,000 or 33.3%.  These increases are attributable to higher average
effective rates during the periods, offset by lower average debt levels.

   Provision for Income Taxes - The Company's provision for income tax was 36.5%
of pre-tax income in the third quarter and for the first nine months of 1995,
which is the current estimated effective rate for the full year.  During the
same periods in 1994, effective annual rates of 35.6% and 36.5%, respectively,
were estimated.

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY

   At September 30, 1995, working capital amounted to $194 million versus $185.7
million at December 31, 1994.  Cash decreased from $6.1 million at year-end 1994
to $3.4 million at the end of 1995's third quarter.  During the first nine
months of 1995, net cash of $12.3 million was provided from operations after
usage for the seasonal increase in accounts receivable and inventories.  Net
cash advances of $11.1 million were provided under the company's credit
facilities.  Uses of cash during the 1995 nine month period include the purchase
of 569,000 shares of treasury stock at a cost of $6 million, purchase of capital
equipment, and payment of cash dividends to shareholders.

   Total interest-bearing debt increased to $90.3 million from $79.2 million at
year end 1994.  The ratio of long-term debt-to-equity was .31 to 1 at September
30, 1995 compared to .29 to 1 at year-end 1994.  Borrowings should decrease
during the next quarter as receivables from Footwear's seasonal sales become
due.  At September 30, 1995, unused credit facilities totaled $25 million, an
amount well above the company's estimated requirements.

   Cash dividends declared in the third quarter of 1995 and 1994 amounted to
$.04 a share.  During each of the nine month periods ended September 30 in 1995
and 1994, dividends were declared amounting to $.12 a share.
