SECTION
      302 OF THE SARBANES-OXLEY ACT OF 2002


I,
      Gary
      Pokrassa, certify that:





1.           I
      have reviewed this report on
      Form 10-Q of Lakeland Industries, Inc. (the “registrant”);




2.           Based
      on my knowledge, this report
      does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a
      material fact necessary to make the statements made, in light of the
      circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading with respect
      to the period covered by this report;




3.           Based
      on my knowledge, the
      financial statements, and other financial information included in this report,
      fairly present in all material respects the financial condition, results of
      operations and cash flows of the registrant as of, and for, the periods
      presented in this report;




4.           
       The registrant’s other certifying officer and I are responsible for
      establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined
      in
      Exchange Act Rules 13A-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) and internal control over financial
      reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) for the
      registrant and we have:




a.         Designed
      such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such disclosure controls
      and
      procedures to be designed under our supervision, to ensure that material
      information relating to the registrant, including its consolidated subsidiaries,
      is made known to us by others within those entities, particularly during the
      period in which this report is being prepared;





b.         Designed
      such internal control over financial reporting, or caused such internal control
      over financial reporting to be designed under our supervision, to provide
      reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the
      preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with
      generally accepted accounting principles;





c.         Evaluated
      the effectiveness of the registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures and
      presented in this report our conclusions about the effectiveness of the
      disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by
      this
      report based on such evaluation; and





d.         Disclosed
      in this report any change in the registrant’s internal control over financial
      reporting that occurred during the registrant’s most recent fiscal quarter (the
      registrant’s fourth fiscal quarter in the case of an annual report) that has
      materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the
      registrant’s internal control over financial reporting;





5.  The
      registrant’s other
      certifying officer and I have disclosed, based on our most recent evaluation
      of
      internal control over financial reporting, to the registrant’s auditors and the
      audit committee of registrant’s board of directors (or persons performing the
      equivalent functions):





a.    All
      significant deficiencies in the
      design or operation of internal controls over financial reporting which are
      reasonably likely to adversely affect the registrant’s ability to record,
      process, summarize and report financial information;
      and




b.   Any
      fraud, whether or not material, that
      involves management or other employees who have a significant role in the
      registrant’s internal controls over financial reporting.
