                         ITEM 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER.

      This statement is filed with respect to shares of common stock, par value
$.001 per share (the "Common Stock"), of Brazos Sportswear, Inc. (the "Issuer").
The address of the Issuer's principal executive offices is 3860 Virginia Avenue,
Cincinnati, Ohio 45227.

ITEM 2.  IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND.

      F. Clayton Chambers is an individual whose business address is 3860
Virginia Avenue, Cincinnati, Ohio 45227. Mr. Chambers is vice president, chief
financial officer, treasurer and secretary of the Issuer and is a United States
citizen. He has not, during the past five years, been convicted in a criminal
proceeding or been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative
body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is
subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or
prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws
or finding any violation which respect to such laws.

ITEM 3.  SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

      On March 14, 1997, Sun Sportswear, Inc. ("Sun") (now known as Brazos
Sportswear, Inc.) and BSI Holdings, Inc. ("BSI") consummated a merger ("Merger")
pursuant to which, among other things, (i) BSI was merged with and into Sun,
with Sun as the surviving corporation (ii) the former holders of BSI capital
stock became holders of Sun capital stock, and (iii) BSI directors and officers
became the directors and officers of Sun, the surviving corporation. In
addition, as contemplated under the Merger, Sun thereafter on the same day,
reincorporated in Delaware pursuant to a merger transaction with its then
wholly-owned subsidiary Brazos Sportswear, Inc. (the " Reincorporation")
pursuant to which, among other things, (i) the holders of Sun capital stock
(after giving effect to the above Merger) became holders of Brazos Sportswear,
Inc. capital stock and (ii) the directors and officers of Sun immediately
preceding the Reincorporation (i.e., the former BSI directors and officers)
became the directors and officers of Brazos Sportswear, Inc., the surviving
corporation and Issuer referred to in this Schedule 13D. As a result of the
Merger and Reincorporation, (i) Mr. Chambers, together with two trust for the
benefit of Mr. Chamber's children and for which he serves as Trustee, assumed
their present positions with the Issuer, (ii) their previous equity ownership in
BSI was converted into 201,396 shares of Common Stock, 108,057 shares of Series
B-1 Preferred Stock, 77,369 shares of Series B-2 Preferred Stock and 50,000
shares of Series B-3 Preferred Stock (collectively the "Preferred Stock"), which
Preferred Stock is convertible into Common Stock at any time by the holder at a
conversion ratio of approximately .0909 per share, subject to certain
adjustments and (iii) his BSI options and warrants were converted into options
and warrants to purchase 24,931 shares (21,139 shares of which are exercisable
within sixty days of the date of this Schedule) and 6,824 shares of Issuer
Common Stock, respectively.

                                                                   Page 4 of 5
ITEM 4.  PURPOSE OF THE TRANSACTION.

      Mr. Chambers acquired the Shares with a view to holding a substantial
ownership interest in the Issuer. Although Mr. Chambers does not have any
specific plans or proposals regarding the Issuer in his capacity as a
shareholder, he will continue to evaluate all alternatives with respect to the
Shares.

      Except as stated above, Mr. Chambers does not have any plans or proposals
of the type referred to in clause (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D,
although he reserves the right to do so in the future.

ITEM 5.  INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

      Mr. Chambers is the beneficial owner of 250,759 shares of the Common Stock
(the "Shares") which represent 5.7% of the Issuer's Common Stock. The Shares
include (i) 196,355 shares of Common Stock directly held and 5,041 shares held
by the Trusts, (ii) 21,400 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of
the Preferred Stock at a current conversion ratio of approximately .0909 per
share, of which 2,343 shares are represented by Preferred Stock held by the
Trusts, (iii) 27,963 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of options
and warrants at exercise prices ranging from $1.98 to $6.59 and which expire at
various dates in 2006 through 2007. Mr. Chambers retains sole voting and
dispositive power with respect to all the Shares.

      On or about March 13, 1997, Mr. Chambers and the Trusts exchanged 77,369
shares of Series A Preferred Stock of Brazos, Inc. for the same number of shares
of Series B-2 Preferred Stock of BSI pursuant to the terms of a Stock Exchange
Agreement among BSI and the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock of Brazos,
Inc. In addition, in accordance with the terms of a Preferred Stock and Warrant
Purchase Agreement, immediately preceding the closing of the Merger, Mr.
Chambers acquired 50,000 shares of Series B-3 Preferred Stock of BSI, together
with warrants to purchase an additional 900 shares of BSI Common Stock at $50
per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $50,000. Pursuant to the terms of
the Merger and Reincorporation described in Item 3 above, such shares of BSI
Series B-2 and B-3 Preferred Stock and the BSI warrant were converted into
shares of the Issuer's Preferred Stock of a comparable series and a warrant to
purchase the Issuer's Common Stock, with such adjustments necessary to give
effect to the relevant conversion ratios set forth in those transactions. For
information concerning the Merger and Reincorporation, see Item 3 above.


ITEM  6. CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT
         TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

March 14, 1997, with the Issuer, pursuant to which, among other things, Mr.
Chambers and the Trusts have agreed not to sell or otherwise dispose of their
Shares for a period of 180 days, which restriction expires on or about September
