Item 9. Regulation FD Disclosure.

The table following this narrative sets forth information concerning the
quarterly and annual consolidated operating results of Haggar Corp. (the
"Company") for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2000, together with
projected quarterly and annual consolidated operating results for the fiscal
year commencing October 1, 2000, and ending September 30, 2001.  The
projections for fiscal 2001 are based on the Company's historical operating
performance, current trends and the Company's internal operating budget for
2001.

The projections set forth in the table constitute forward-looking statements
within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, Section 21E
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Private Securities Litigation
Reform Act of 1995.  Although the Company believes that these forward-looking
statements are based on reasonable assumptions, it can give no assurance that
its expectations will in fact occur and cautions that actual results may
differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements.  A number of
factors could affect the future results of the Company or the apparel
industry generally and could cause the Company's expected results to differ
materially from those expressed in this filing.  These factors include, among
other things:

    - Changes in general business conditions,

    - Impact of competition in the apparel industry,

    - Changes in the performance of the retail sector in general and the
      apparel industry in particular,

    - Seasonality of the Company's business,

    - Changes in consumer acceptance of new products and the success of
      advertising, marketing, and promotional campaigns,

    - Changes in laws and other regulatory actions,

    - Changes in labor relations,

    - Political and economic events and conditions domestically or in the
      foreign jurisdictions in which the Company operates,

    - Unexpected judicial decisions,

    - Changes in interest rates and capital market conditions,

    - Inflation,

    - Acquisition or dissolution of business enterprises,

    - Natural disasters, and

    - Unusual or infrequent items that cannot be foreseen or are not
      susceptible to estimation.

The quarterly and annual consolidated operating results for the fiscal year
ended September 30, 2000, do not necessarily indicate the results that may be
expected for any future quarter or for any fiscal year.

The Company cautions that the quarterly and annual projections for fiscal
2001 set forth below are given as of the date hereof based on currently
available information.  The Company is not undertaking any obligations to
update these projections as conditions change or other information becomes
available.

Investors also should consider other risks and uncertainties discussed in
documents filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
