                           GFSI, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)
                               September 28, 2001

1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

      The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of GFSI, Inc.
(the  "Company")  include the  accounts  of the Company and the  accounts of its
wholly  owned  subsidiaries,  Event 1,  Inc.  ("Event  1") and  Champion  Custom
Products,  Inc.  ("CCP").  All intercompany  balances and transactions have been
eliminated.  The unaudited  consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in  accordance  with  generally  accepted  accounting   principles  for  interim
financial  information and with the  instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation  S-X   promulgated   by  the  Securities  and  Exchange   Commission.
Accordingly,  they do not include all of the information and footnotes  required
by generally  accepted  accounting  principles  for annual  financial  statement
reporting purposes. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of
normal recurring accruals)  considered  necessary for a fair presentation of the
financial  position and operations of the Company have been included.  Operating
results for the interim  periods are not  necessarily  indicative of the results
that may be expected for the entire fiscal year. For further information,  refer
to the financial  statements  and footnotes  thereto for the year ended June 29,
2001 included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.

      The  preparation  of financial  statements  in conformity  with  generally
accepted  accounting  principles  requires  management  to  make  estimates  and
assumptions  that  affect the  reported  amounts of assets and  liabilities  and
disclosure of  contingent  assets and  liabilities  at the date of the financial
statements  and the  reported  amounts  of  revenues  and  expenses  during  the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2.  ACQUISITION AND DIVESTITURE

      In June 2001, the Company acquired CCP, formerly a wholly owned subsidiary
of Sara Lee  Corporation.  During the quarter ended  September 28, 2001, CCP had
sales of $12.7 million and produced operating  contribution of $2.4 million.  At
September  28,  2001,  CCP had total  assets and  stockholder's  equity of $10.5
milion and  $757,000,  respectively.  CCP is an  unconditional  guarantor of the
Senior Subordinated Notes.

      In June  2001,  the  Company  sold  the  assets  of its  Tandem  Marketing
business.   Tandem   Marketing  had  revenues  of  $3.0  million  and  operating
contribution of $500,000 for the quarter ended September 29, 2000.

3.  COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

      The Company,  in the normal course of business,  may be threatened with or
named as a defendant in various  lawsuits.  It is not possible to determine  the
ultimate  disposition  of these matters,  however,  management is of the opinion
that there are no known  claims or known  contingent  claims  that are likely to
have  a  material  adverse  effect  on  the  results  of  operations,  financial
condition, or cash flows of the Company.

4.  NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

      The FASB's Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF")  released its consensus No.
00-22,  "Accounting  for 'Points' and Certain Other  Time-Based or  Volume-Based
Sales Incentive Offers, and Offers for Free Products or Services to be Delivered
in the Future"  which is  effective  January 1, 2002.  The Company is  currently
evaluating  the impact that adopting the EITF will have on its  presentation  of
results of operations.

      In April  2001,  the EITF  reached a  consensus  on EITF Issue No.  00-25,
"Vendor Income Statement Characterization of Consideration Paid to a Reseller of
the Vendor's Products". The consensus concluded that consideration from a vendor
to a reseller of the vendor's products is generally presumed to be an adjustment
to the  selling  prices  of the  vendor's  products  and,  therefore,  should be
classified  as a reduction of revenue.  EITF No.  00-25 is  effective  beginning
January 1, 2002.  The Company is currently  evaluating  the impact that adopting
the EITF will have on its presentation of results of operations.

5.  RECLASSIFICATION

      Certain  reclassifications  have been made to the fiscal 2001 consolidated
financial statements to conform to the fiscal 2002 presentation.

             ITEM 2.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                     FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

       The discussions set forth in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction
with the financial  information  included herein and the Company's Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the year  ended  June 29,  2001.  Management's  discussion  and
analysis of financial  condition and results of operations and other sections of
this report contain forward-looking statements relating to future results of the
Company.  Such  forward-looking  statements  are  identified  by use of forward-
looking  words  such  as  "anticipates",   "believes",   "plans",   "estimates",
"expects",  and  "intends"  or words or  phrases of  similar  expression.  These
forward-looking  statements  are  subject  to  various  assumptions,  risks  and
uncertainties,  including but not limited to,  changes in political and economic
conditions,  demand for the  Company's  products,  acceptance  of new  products,
developments  affecting  the  Company's  products and to those  discussed in the
Company's  filings with the  Securities  and Exchange  Commission.  Accordingly,
actual  results  could  differ   materially  from  those   contemplated  by  the
forward-looking statements.

       EBITDA  represents  operating income plus  depreciation and amortization.
While EBITDA should not be construed as a substitute  for operating  income or a
better  indicator of liquidity than cash flow from operating  activities,  which
are determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting  principles,  it
is included herein to provide additional information with respect to the ability
of the Company to meet its future debt service,  capital expenditure and working
capital requirements.  In addition,  the Company believes that certain investors
find  EBITDA to be a useful  tool for  measuring  the  ability of the Company to
service its debt.  EBITDA is not necessarily a measure of the Company's  ability
to fund its cash needs.  See the  Consolidated  Statements  of Cash Flows of the
Company herein for further information.


COMPARISON OF OPERATING  RESULTS FOR THE QUARTERS  ENDED  SEPTEMBER 28, 2001 AND
SEPTEMBER 29, 2000.

       Net Sales.  Net sales for the quarter ended  September 28, 2001 increased
2.1% to $54.6  million from $53.5  million in the quarter  ended  September  29,
2000.  The increase in net sales from the first  quarter last year was primarily
related  to the  addition  of  Champion  college  bookstore  net  sales of $12.7
million.  The net  sales  increase  from  Champion  was  offset by  declines  in
Corporate  and  Resort  division  sales in  comparison  to the prior  year.  The
terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 and the resulting political and economic
uncertainties  created in the aftermath,  directly affected the travel plans and
the  marketing  and employee  incentive  programs of the  customers of these two
sales  divisions.  The Tandem Marketing  business was sold in June 2001.  Tandem
Marketing  contributed $3.0 million in sales for the quarter ended September 29,
2000.

       Gross Profit.   Gross  profit for the quarter  ended  September  28, 2001
increased  4.5% to  $21.3  million  from  $20.4  million  in the  quarter  ended
September 29, 2000. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased to 39.1%
compared to 38.2%.  The increase in gross profit was the result of a decrease in
cost of material.

       Operating Expenses.   Operating  expenses  were the same as last  year at
$12.8 million. Operating expenses as a percentage of net sales were 23.5% in the
first  quarter of fiscal 2002  compared to 24.1% in the first  quarter of fiscal
2001.  The decline in operating  expenses as a percentage of net sales  resulted
from the restructuring and profit  improvement  programs  implemented during the
fourth quarter of fiscal 2001.

       EBITDA.  EBITDA  increased  14.4% to $9.6 million in the first quarter of
fiscal 2002 from $8.4 million in the first  quarter of fiscal 2001.  EBITDA as a
percentage of net sales  increased to 17.5% in the quarter  ended  September 28,
2001 from 15.6% in the quarter ended  September 29, 2000. The increase in EBITDA
is a result of the increases in net sales and gross profit.

       Operating Income. Operating income increased 12.9% to $8.5 million in the
first  quarter of fiscal 2002 from $7.5  million in the first  quarter of fiscal
2001.  Operating  income as a percentage of net sales  increased to 15.6% in the
first quarter of fiscal 2002 from 14.1% in the first quarter of fiscal 2001. The
increase in operating  income is a result of the increase in net sales and gross
profit.

       Other Income (Expense).  Other expense decreased slightly to $4.1 million
in the first  quarter of fiscal 2002 from $4.2  million in the first  quarter of
fiscal 2001 due to decreases in interest expense as a result of reduced interest
rates and declining balances on the Company's term debt.

       Net  Income.  Net  income for the first  quarter of fiscal  2002 was $2.7
million  compared to $2.1  million  for the first  quarter of fiscal  2001.  The
increase was a result of the increase in operating income.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

       Cash used in operating  activities  for the first  quarter of fiscal 2002
was $5.6 million  compared to cash  provided of $739,000 in the first quarter of
fiscal  2001.  The change in cash  provided  by (used in)  operating  activities
between the two periods was due to the increase in accounts  receivable  and the
increase  in  inventory  as a result of the  addition  of the  Champion  college
bookstore business.

       Cash used in investing activities in the first quarter of fiscal 2002 was
$774,000  compared to $234,000  in the first  quarter of 2001.  The cash used in
both periods was related to acquisitions of property, plant and equipment.

       Cash  provided by financing  activities  for the first  quarter of fiscal
2002 was $3.0 million compared to cash used of $1.7 million in the first quarter
of fiscal 2001. The cash provided by financing  activities for the quarter ended
September  28, 2001 was  attributable  to $4.7 million in  borrowings  under the
Company's revolving credit agreement. These borrowings were used to complete the
acquisition of Champion and to support its working capital requirements.

       The  Company  believes  that  cash  flow from  operating  activities  and
borrowings  under  its  Bank  Credit  Agreement  will be  adequate  to meet  the
Company's short-term and long-term liquidity  requirements prior to the maturity
of its Credit Agreement in fiscal 2003 and Senior  Subordinated  Notes in fiscal
2007,  although no assurance can be given in this regard.  Under the Bank Credit
Agreement's revolving loan facility $40 million of revolving credit availability
is  provided,   of  which  $4.7  million  was  borrowed  and   outstanding   and
approximately $12.2 million was utilized for outstanding commercial and stand-by
letters of credit as of September 28, 2001.

       GFSI Holdings, Inc. ("Holdings"), the sole stockholder of the Company, is
dependent  upon the cash flows of the  Company to provide  funds to pay  certain
ordinary  course  expenses  incurred on behalf of the Company and to service the
indebtedness  represented  by the  $50.0  million  of  11.375%  Series  B Senior
Discount Notes due 2009 (the "Discount Notes").  The Discount Notes will accrete
at a rate of 11.375%,  compounded semi-annually to an aggregate principal amount
of $108.5  million at September 15, 2004.  Thereafter,  the Discount  Notes will
accrue interest at the rate of 11.375% per annum, payable semi-annually, in cash
on March 15 and  September  15 of each  year,  commencing  on  March  15,  2005.
Holdings  will be  dependent  on the  Company  to provide  funds to service  the
indebtedness.  Additionally,  the remaining  cumulative non-cash preferred stock
issued by Holdings  ("Holdings  Preferred Stock") will accrue dividends totaling
approximately  $402,000  annually.  Holdings  Preferred Stock may be redeemed at
stated value  (approximately $3.3 million) plus accrued dividends with mandatory
redemption in 2009.


SEASONALITY AND INFLATION

       The  Company   experiences   seasonal   fluctuations  in  its  sales  and
profitability,  with  generally  higher  sales and gross profit in the first and
second quarters of its fiscal year. The  seasonality of sales and  profitability
is primarily due to higher college  bookstore  sales volume during the first two
fiscal quarters. Sales at the Company's Resort and Corporate divisions typically
show no significant seasonal variations.

       The  impact  of  inflation  on the  Company's  operations  has  not  been
significant  to date.  However,  there can be no  assurance  that a high rate of
inflation  in the  future  would not have an  adverse  effect  on the  Company's
operating results.


        ITEM 3.   QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK


       DERIVATIVE AND MARKET RISK DISCLOSURE

       The  Company's   market  risk  exposure  is  primarily  due  to  possible
fluctuations  in  interest  rates.  The  Company  uses a  balanced  mix of  debt
maturities  along  with both  fixed  rate and  variable  rate debt to manage its
exposure to  interest  rate  changes.  The fixed rate  portion of the  Company's
long-term  debt does not bear  significant  interest  rate risk. An immediate 10
percent  change  in  interest  rates  would  not have a  material  effect on the
Company's results of operations over the next fiscal year, although there can be
no assurances that interest rates will not significantly change.
