PERSONAL & CONFIDENTAL



Mr. Robert W. Humphreys
Delta Woodside Industries, Inc.
233 N. Main Street, Suite 200
Greenville, SC  29601

Dear Bob:

You  have  expressed to me your concern about the  potential
negative impact on corporate employees as the result of  the
downsizing  of Delta Woodside.  Further, you have  asked  if
you  will  have a job and whether you should plan  to  "move
on".

It is important to understand where we are as a company.  We
have  certain assets that are performing very well and  some
that  are  performing horribly.  Our Board has  adopted  the
position  that  we should not tolerate those bad  situations
any  longer,  and that we should concentrate on the  textile
business where most of our experience and expertise lies.

Our  plan is to eliminate those businesses that have  caused
us  problems  and,  thereby, strengthen our  balance  sheet.
With  a strengthened balance sheet, we will be able to  make
significant acquisitions in the textile industry.  We do not
know for sure that acquisitions will be available, but we do
know that we will be able to afford them.

A  couple  of analysts have suggested in print  that  as  we
restructure  our  company, we could  become  an  acquisition
target.  That could be.  It is not correct, as some analysts
have  said,  that our Board plans to liquidate the  company.
As corporate management, our job is to increase the value of
our    stockholders'   investment,   whether   that    means
restructuring or acquiring someone or being acquired.

It  is  important that you understand your value  as  a  key
member of the Delta Woodside corporate management team,  and
that  you  can  manage  your job and your  departments  with
confidence  about  your  own  future.   Hopefully,  you  can
concentrate  on the executing of our restructuring  strategy
and  not worry about what the future might bring.  I believe
it  will take up to two years to finish the restructuring of
Delta Apparel and Duck Head.

In  order to accomplish this, we will need your devotion  to
this  task and want to eliminate any need for you  to  "look
over  your  shoulder" as to what is going to happen  to  the
company.   Therefore, if your job is eliminated  because  of
downsizing,  restructuring, or a change of  control  between
now  and  the  end  of December 2000, you  will  be  paid  a
severance  equal  to  two  years'  salary  at  the  time  of
termination, in addition to your regular severance.

This  should relieve you from worrying about the future  and
also reward you for your services in building the company to
its current state.

I've put a two-year time on this agreement because I believe
we will get all the restructuring completed within that time
frame,  and things will be "settled down".  If that  is  not
the  case,  we will discuss the situation again  as  we  get
close  to  the end of 2000.  We do not want this arrangement
to  be open-ended, due to our no contract policy and because
I believe the need for it will go away.

I  do not like writing letters like this because they have a
negative  tone.  We need to look at the future in a positive
way, even though we do not know what it holds for us.  I  am
very  positive about the future and I hope this  arrangement
will eliminate your personal concerns about the future.

Thanks  again for all you have done for Delta Woodside  over
the years, and for your continued efforts in the future.

Best regards.

                                   Sincerely yours,
