EXHIBIT 10.30 DELTA APPAREL, INC.
2004 NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTOR STOCK PLAN 1. Purpose.The purpose of the 2004 Non-Employee Director Stock Plan (the Plan) is to
include equity as a component of the compensation of non-employee members of the Board of Directors
(the Board) of Delta Apparel, Inc. (the Company). 2. Effective Date and Term of Plan.Subject to approval of the shareholders of the Company in
accordance with applicable law and securities exchange rules, the Plan shall be effective as of
October 1, 2004 and shall remain in effect until the earlier of (a) the date the Plan is terminated
by the Committee (as defined below); or (b) December 31, 2009. 3. Eligibility.Any member of the Board who is not an employee of the Company or any of its
subsidiaries shall be eligible to receive an award under the Plan. 4. Administration.The Board, or if the Board so elects a committee of the Board (the Committee)
shall administer the Plan. Subject to the express provisions of this Plan, the Committee shall have
the authority to do all things that it may deem necessary or desirable in connection with the
administration of the Plan, including without limitation the authority (a) to establish, modify and
revoke rules relating to the Plan; (b) to interpret the terms of the Plan, any rules under the Plan
and the terms and conditions of any award under the Plan; (c) to approve the form and content of
any documentation relating to awards under the Plan or Plan administration; and (d) consistent with
the express provisions of the Plan, to approve, establish and amend (subject to the award
recipients consent except with respect to amendments pursuant to Section 8) the terms governing an
award under the Plan. All determinations, interpretations and decisions made by the Committee under
or with respect to the Plan and awards under the Plan shall be final, conclusive and binding on the
Company, each eligible person, each Plan participant and any beneficiary of an award. No member of
the Committee or the Board shall be liable for any action taken in good faith with respect to the
Plan. 5. Shares Subject to Plan.Up to 25,000 shares of the common stock of the Company may be issued
pursuant to awards under the Plan. In any fiscal year, awards may not be granted providing for the
issue of more than 5,000 shares. In the event that any shares subject to an award are forfeited or
otherwise fail to be issued prior to the forfeiture, cancellation or expiration of an award, such
shares shall again be available for awards under the Plan. 6. Awards.The Committee shall determine which eligible individuals will receive awards under the
Plan, the number of shares granted to each award recipient and the other terms and conditions, if
any, of each award. No awards under the Plan shall be effective unless and until the Plan has been
approved by the shareholders of the Company in accordance with applicable law and securities
exchange rules. 7. Dividends; Shareholder Rights.An award of shares under the Plan shall not entitle a recipient
to receive any dividends or any equivalent amounts prior to the actual issue of shares to the
recipient. An award recipient shall not have any rights as a shareholder prior to the actual issue
of shares to the recipient. 8. Adjustments.In the event of any stock dividend, stock split, combination or exchange of shares,
merger, consolidation, spin-off or other distribution (other than normal cash dividends) of Company
assets to shareholders or any other change affecting the common stock of the Company, the Committee
may make such adjustments to any outstanding awards that the Committee, in its sole discretion, may
deem appropriate to reflect such change. Unless the Committee determines otherwise, in the event of
a stock split, reverse stock split or share dividend having the effect of a stock split, the number
of shares of common stock issuable under the Plan and the number of shares of common stock for
which awards may be granted in any fiscal year shall increase or decrease, as the case may be, in
the same manner and proportion as the outstanding shares of common stock of the Company increase or
decrease as a result of such stock split, reverse stock split or dividend. 9. Compliance with Applicable Laws.Notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan, the Company
shall have no liability to issue any shares under the Plan unless such issuance would comply with
all applicable laws, including without limitation the Securities Act of 1933, the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 and any applicable state securities laws, and all applicable requirements of
any securities exchange or similar entity. 10. No Fractional Shares.If any award would result in the issue of fractional shares, cash shall
be paid in lieu of the issue of such fractional shares. 11. Transferability.Awards under the Plan may not be sold, assigned, pledged, alienated or
otherwise transferred or encumbered except by will, the laws of descent and distribution or
pursuant to a domestic relations order entered by a court of competent jurisdiction. 12. Amendment; Termination.The Committee may amend or terminate the Plan at any time, provided
that (a) no such amendment or termination shall affect the terms of any award previously granted
under the Plan without the award recipients consent and (b) no amendment that changes the class of
individuals eligible to receive awards or, except as provided in Section 8, increases the total
numbers of shares that 19

award recipient or eligible individual, including without limitation any such persons executor,
personal representative, estate, trustee, receiver or trustee in bankruptcy or creditor
representative. 14. No Right to Continued Service.Neither the Plan nor any award under the Plan shall be construed
to grant any individual any right to continued service with the Company in any capacity. 15. Governing Law.The validity, interpretation and effect of the Plan, any instrument or document
created in connection with the Plan and any actions taken with respect or relating to the Plan
shall be determined in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia, without the application of
choice of law principles, and applicable U.S. federal law. Executed on behalf of the Company effective as of October 1, 2004 on this ___day of
