                         JD AMERICAN WORKWEAR, INC.
                        Notes to Financial Statements

Note 1 - The Company
- --------------------

      The Company was incorporated in Rhode Island in 1991 under the name 
Jaque Dubois, Inc. and  was re-incorporated in Delaware in 1994.  In July 
1995, the Company's name was changed to JD American Workwear, Inc.  The 
Company is primarily engaged in the business of designing, manufacturing, 
marketing and selling commercial and industrial workwear products

      Substantial losses have been incurred since inception and additional 
future losses are anticipated as the Company continues to expand operations 
and establish itself in the market. Management believes that additional 
capital may be required to sustain operations through February 28, 1999.  
The Company anticipates meeting its future cash requirements through the 
sale of products and obtaining additional financing.  There can be no 
assurance that sufficient cash can be generated from operations or financing 
activities or that the Company will be able to operate profitably in the 
future.

Note 2 - Basis of Presentation
- ------------------------------

      The interim financial statements are prepared pursuant to the 
requirements for reporting on 10-QSB.  The interim financial information 
included herein is unaudited; however, such information reflects all 
adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in 
the opinion of management, necessary to a fair presentation of the Company's 
financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the interim 
periods.

      The accompanying financial statements do not contain all of the 
disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles and should 
be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes 
included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year 
ended February 28, 1998.  The results of operations for the interim periods 
shown in this report are not necessarily indicative of results to be 
expected for the fiscal year ending February 28, 1999.

                       PART I.  FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Item 2.  Management s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and 
         Results of Operations

Results of Operations

      Three Months Ended August 31, 1998 Compared to Three Months Ended 
August 31, 1997.  Net sales for the three month period ended August 31, 1998 
increased approximately 37.9% to $264,619 from $191,834 for the three month 
period ended August 31, 1997.  The increase is directly attributable to an 
increase in unit volume generated by the Company's expanded sales force. 
Cost of goods sold for the three months ended August 31, 1998 was $169,188 
compared to $106,276 for the three months ended August 31, 1997.  Gross 
margin for the three month period ended August 31, 1998 was 36.1% compared 
to 44.6% for the three months ended August 31, 1997 primarily due to a 
higher concentration of distributor sales at lower margins.

      Operating expenses increased to $418,455 for the three months ended 
August 31, 1998 from $226,796 for the three months ended August 31, 1997.  A 
significant portion of the increase was due to additional payroll incurred 
in connection with the expansion of the Company's inside sales force, 
additional professional fees as well as charges for options and warrants 
issued to consultants for services.  The Company earned interest income in 
excess of interest expense for the three months ended August 31, 1998 versus 
net interest expense of $50,019.  This is a direct result of short-term 
investments of cash and the reduction of long-term debt through repayments 
and conversions to equity.

      The net loss for the three months ended August 31, 1998 was $315,854 
($.16 per share) compared to a net loss of $191,257 ($.11 per share) for the 
three months ended August 31, 1997. 


      Six Months Ended August 31, 1998 Compared to Six Months Ended August 
31, 1997.  Net sales for the six month period ended August 31, 1998 
increased approximately 30.1% to $406,273 from $312,160 for the six month 
period ended August 31, 1997.  The increase is directly attributable to an 
increase in unit volume. Cost of goods sold for the six months ended August 
31, 1998 was $260,685 compared to $177,295 for the six months ended August 
31, 1997.  Gross margin for the six month period ended August 31, 1998 was 
35.8% compared to 43.2% for the six months ended August 31, 1997 primarily 
due to a higher concentration of distributor sales at lower margins.

      Operating expenses increased to $768,192 for the six months ended 
August 31, 1998 from $467,598 for the six months ended August 31, 1997. A 
significant portion of the increase was due to additional payroll incurred 
in connection with the expansion of the Company's inside sales force, 
additional professional fees as well as charges for options and warrants 
issued to consultants for services.  Net interest expense decreased to 
$21,178 from $78,016.  This is a direct result of short-term investments of 
cash and the reduction of long-term debt through repayments and conversions 
to equity.

      The net loss for the six months ended August 31, 1998 was $643,782 
($.32 per share) compared to a net loss of $410,749 ($.23 per share) for the 
six months ended August 31, 1997. 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

      Net cash used in operating activities was $1,204,755 for the six 
months ended August 31, 1998 compared to $120,507 for the six months ended 
August 31, 1997.  The Company used resources to continue to build finished 
goods inventory in anticipation of its prime selling season, commencement of 
certain marketing programs as well as reducing accounts payable.  Accounts 
receivable increased approximately 83.6% to $373,961 from February 28 to 
August 31, 1998.  Inventory increased to $1,449,977 during the first half of 
fiscal 1999.

      Capital expenditures for the six months ended August 31, 1998 were 
$57,609 compared to $7,289 for the six months ended August 31, 1997.

      As previously announced, on April 9, 1998, the Company entered into a 
Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with The Union Labor 
Life Insurance Company, a Maryland corporation ("ULLICO").  Pursuant to the 
terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company issued 2,500 shares of Series B 
12% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, $.001 par value (the "Series B 
Preferred Stock") as well as a detached ten-year stock purchase warrant to 
purchase 799,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $.01 per share 
(the "Investor Warrant").  The aggregate purchase price for the Series B 
Preferred Stock and the Investor Warrant was $2,500,000.

      The Company will use the net proceeds to facilitate and expand a program 
of union labor manufacturing of its products, to repay certain notes payable 
and long-term debt, and for sales and administrative salaries, product 
development, sales and marketing expense, and other general corporate purposes.

      The Company is currently negotiating with debt holders to convert its 
outstanding convertible debt into Common Stock of the Company.  As of August 
31, 1998, approximately $225,000 of outstanding indebtedness plus accrued 
interest, evidenced by the Company's 11% Convertible Subordinated Notes (the  
"11% Notes") had been converted into approximately 62,600 shares of the 
Company's Common Stock.  Subsequent to August 31, 1998, an additional 
$75,000 plus accrued interest was converted in to approximately 20,700 
shares of Common Stock through October 15, 1998, and management anticipates 
that an additional $75,000 plus accrued interest, of the 11% Notes will be 
converted into Common Stock before November 30, 1998.  The Company has not 
heard whether the holders of the remaining 11% Notes outstanding, 
representing an aggregate balance of $100,000 plus accrued interest, will 
convert their notes into Common Stock or demand repayment.

      In addition, the Company repaid $70,000 plus accrued interest during 
the quarter  ended August 31, 1998 pursuant to the Company's 10% Convertible 
Secured Notes (the "10% Notes").  However, management anticipates that the 
balance of the 10% Notes, representing an aggregate $130,000 of indebtedness 
plus accrued interest, will be converted into Common Stock by November 
30,1998.

      Management believes cash flow from operations and the investment by 
ULLICO will provide for working capital needs and principal payments on long-
term debt through fiscal 1999.  However, the Company will be required to seek 
additional financing to meet its business strategy of achieving significant 
market penetration of its JD Uniform Safety Pants.  Also, additional capital 
may be required if adequate levels of revenue are not realized, if higher 
than anticipated costs are incurred in the expansion of the Company's 
manufacturing and marketing activities, or if product demand exceeds 
expected levels.  There can be no assurance that any additional financing 
thereby necessitated will be available on acceptable terms to the Company, 
if at all.
