Dear Sirs:
We have acted as counsel for Oshman's Sporting Goods, Inc. a
Delaware corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the proposed
offering of up to an additional 250,000 shares of Common Stock, $1.00
par value (the "Common Stock"), of the Company pursuant to the
Company's 1994 Omnibus Plan (the "Plan").
In connection therewith, we have examined among other things, the
Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws of the Company, and the
relevant corporate proceedings with respect to the registration
statement on Form S-8 to be filed by the Company with the Securities
and Exchange Commission for the registration of the Common Stock
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Registration
Statement").
Based on the foregoing, and having regard for such legal
considerations as we have deemed relevant, we are of the opinion
that the shares of Common Stock to be issued by the Company, when
issued in accordance with the Plan, subject to the Registration
Statement becoming effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, and to compliance with applicable Blue Sky laws, will
be legally issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an Exhibit
to the Registration Statement and to the reference to our firm
under "Legal Opinion" in the Prospectus forming a part of the
Registration Statement.
Very truly yours,
