**of
      $.980 million and $0.18 per share***




RONKONKOMA,
      NY - December 7, 2006 -- Lakeland Industries, Inc. (NASDAQ: LAKE), today
      announced that net income decreased .3 million, or 25.3% to $.980 million for
      the three months ended October 31, 2006 from $1.31 million for the three months
      ended October 31, 2005.  Lakeland
      is a leading manufacturer of industrial protective clothing for industry,
      municipalities, and healthcare and for first responders on the federal, state
      and local levels.





**THREE
      MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 31, 2006**





Net
      Sales. Net sales increased $.546 million, or 2.4% to $23.3 million for the
      three
      months ended October 31, 2006 from $22.7 million for the three months ended
      October 31, 2005. The net increase was comprised of increased sales in
      disposable garments of $321,000, lower government spending in our Chemical
      Protective garments $39,000, growth in sales in our Canadian and UK subsidiaries
      of $453,000, new revenue from India and Chile of $359,000, and a decrease in
      Mifflin Valley, Inc. of $167,000 (acquired in July 2005) which had revenue
      in
      the quarter ended October 2006 of $694,000 compared with $861,000 for the
      quarter ended October 2005. Sales in our Woven, Gloves and fire suits declined
      by $380,000 compared to the same period last year.





Gross
      Profit. Gross profit decreased $0.046 million or 0.8% to $5.64 million for
      the
      three months ended October 31, 2006 from $5.68 million for the three months
      ended October 31, 2005. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales decreased
      to
      24.2% for the three months ended October 31, 2006 from 25.0% for the three
      months ended October 31, 2005, primarily due to higher raw material cost, costs
      related to the new foreign subsidiaries partially offset by on going cost
      reduction programs in component and service-purchasing , shifting production
      from the US to China and Mexico, the reassignment of certain personnel to SGA
      departments from COGS departments as described below.





Operating
      Expenses. Operating expenses increased $0.93 million, or 25.4% to $4.6 million
      for the three months ended October 31, 2006 from $3.7 million for the three
      months ended October 31, 2005. As a percentage of sales, operating expenses
      increased to 19.7% for the three months ended October 31, 2006 from 16.1% for
      the three months ended October 31, 2005. The $0.93 million increase in operating
      expenses in the three months ended October 31, 2006 as compared to the three
      months ended October 31, 2005 were comprised of:





o
            $0.65
                million of SGA costs from new entities in India, Chile and
                Japan.


o
            $0.06
                million of net increases in insurance and employee benefits mainly
                resulting from a more negative experience in our self insured medical
                plan.


o
            ($0.05)
                million lower freight out costs resulting from slight relief in prevailing
                carrier rates.


o
            $0.05
                million in share-based compensation.





o
            $0.13
                million in higher professional and consulting fees, largely resulting
                from
                audit fees.


o
            ($0.03)
                million in reduced bank charges resulting from reduced use of credit
                cards
                and a re-negotiation of the fee
                structure.


o
            $0.08
                million in increased bad debt exposure resulting from two large accounts
                reserved against.


o
            $0.04
                million miscellaneous increases.




Operating
      profit decreased 45.9 % to $1.10 million for the three months ended October
      31,
      2006 from $2.03 million for the three months ended October 31, 2005. Operating
      margins were 4.7% for the three months ended October 31, 2006 compared to 8.9%
      for the three months ended October 31, 2005.





Interest
      Expenses. Interest expenses increased by $0.041 million for the three months
      ended October 31, 2006 as compared to the three months ended October 31, 2005
      because of higher amounts borrowed and increasing interest rates under our
      credit facility.





Income
      Tax Expense. Income tax expenses consist of federal, state, and foreign income
      taxes. Income tax expenses decreased $0.604 million, or 83%, to $0.121 million
      for the three months October 31, 2006 from $0.725 million for the three months
      ended October 31, 2005. Our effective tax rates were 10.9% and 35.6% for the
      three months ended October 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Our effective tax
      rate varied from the federal statutory rate of 34% due primarily to lower
      foreign taxes, partially offset by state taxes and by start up losses in Chile
      and Japan which are not eligible for tax credits and for India in which a U.S.
      tax benefit of $338,000 was recorded at October 31, 2006. Included in this
      was
      approximately $90,000 of tax benefits attributable to losses incurred in periods
      prior to the third fiscal quarter. These losses became eligible for the tax
      benefits as a result of the planned liquidation of the existing Indian
      subsidiary.





Net
      Income. Net income decreased $0.33 million, or 25.3% to $.980 million for the
      three months ended October 31, 2006 from $1.31 million for the three months
      ended October 31, 2005. The decrease in net income primarily resulted from
      lower
      sales volumes in our gloves and fire suit lines and meeting competitive
      conditions in our disposable garment division, the increased operating expenses
      described above, and the combined operating losses of $695,000 related to the
      new foreign operations. Earnings per share were $0.18 for the three months
      ended
      October 31, 2006 compared to $0.24 for the three months ended October 31, 2005
      (after reflecting adjustments resulting from the 10% stock dividend payable
      to
      holders of record August 1, 2006).








**NINE
      MONTHS ENDED OCTOBER 31, 2006**





Net
      Sales. Net sales increased $1.06 million, or 1.4% to $74.6 million for the
      nine
      months ended October 31, 2006 from $73.5 million for the nine months ended
      October 31, 2005. The increase was primarily due to growth in sales by our
      UK
      subsidiary of $670,000, new revenue from India and Chile of $709,000 and the
      acquired Mifflin Valley, Inc., of $1,193,000 which had revenue in the 9 months
      ending October 2006 of $2,308,000 compared with $1,115,000 for the nine months
      ending October 2005, and growth in China external sales of $533,000, offset
      significantly by decreased sales in disposable, chemical protection garments
      and
      woven garments and lower selling prices in these three categories to meet
      competitive market conditions. Sales in these three product lines decreased
      by
      $2,137,000 over the prior nine month period.





Gross
      Profit. Gross profit increased $.99 million or 5.6% to $18.6 million for the
      nine months ended October 31, 2006 from $17.6 million for the nine months ended
      October 31, 2005. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased to 25.0%
      for the nine months ended October 31, 2006 from 24.0% for the nine months ended
      October 31, 2005, primarily due to aggressive raw material purchasing in the
      latter part of FY 06 and in FY 07 which benefited the Company as lower costs
      through approximately the end of June 2006, ongoing cost reduction programs
      in
      component and service-purchasing, shifting production from the US to China
      and
      Mexico, the reassignment of certain personnel to SGA departments from COGS
      departments as described below and the inclusion of Mifflin Valley, Inc. results
      which has higher gross profit margins than most of Lakeland’s other product
      lines have overall, partially offset by rising raw material costs.





Operating
      Expenses. Operating expenses increased $2.4 million, or 22.7% to $13.3 million
      for the nine months ended October 31, 2006 from $10.9 million for the nine
      months ended October 31, 2005. As a percentage of sales, operating expenses
      increased to 17.8% for the nine months ended October 31, 2006 from 14.8% for
      the
      nine months ended October 31, 2005. The $2.4 million increase in operating
      expenses in the nine months ended October 31, 2006 as compared to the nine
      months ended October 31, 2005 is comprised of:





o
            $0.30
                million of Mifflin Valley operating expenses included for the full
                nine
                months ended October 2006 in excess of the four months through October
                included in the nine months ended October
                2005.


o
            $0.24
                million of labor costs resulting from personnel reassigned to SGA
                departments who had been assigned to COGS departments in
                2005.


o
            $0.75
                million of SGA costs from new entities in India, Chile and
                Japan.


o
            $0.51
                million net increases in sales salaries and commissions, mainly in
                Disposables, Wovens and Canada and related payroll taxes. Several
                senior
                level sales personnel were added to support lagging sales in Disposables,
                support new woven product introductions and coordinate international
                sales
                efforts.


o
            $0.22
                million of net increases in insurance and employee benefits mainly
                resulting from a more negative experience in our self insured medical
                plan.


o
            $0.07
                million increase in administrative
                payroll.


o
            $0.04
                million in foreign currency
                fluctuation.


o
            $0.09
                million in share-based
                compensation.


o
            $0.06
                million in higher professional and consulting fees, largely resulting
                from
                audit fees.


o
            $0.09
                million in increased bad debt expense resulting from two large accounts
                reserved against.


o
            $0.03
                million miscellaneous net expense
                increases.





Operating
      Profit decreased 21.8% to $5.3 million for the nine months ended October 31,
      2006 from $6.8 million for the nine months ended October 31, 2005. Operating
      margins were 7.1% for the nine months ended October 31, 2006 compared to 9.2%
      for the nine months ended October 31, 2005.





Interest
      Expenses. Interest expenses increased by $0.224 million for the nine months
      ended October 31, 2006 as compared to the nine months ended October 31, 2005
      because of higher amounts borrowed at increasing interest rates under our credit
      facility.







Income
      Tax Expense. Income tax expenses consist of federal, state, and foreign income
      taxes. Income





tax
      expenses decreased $0.803 million, or 36.5%, to $1.40 million for the nine
      months October 31, 2006 from $2.20 million for the nine months ended October
      31,
      2005. Our effective tax rates were 26.9% and 32.0% for the nine months ended
      October 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Our effective tax rate varied from
      the
      federal statutory rate of 34% due primarily to lower foreign taxes, partially
      offset by state taxes and by losses in Chile and Japan which are not eligible
      for tax benefits and for India in which a U.S. tax benefit of $338,000 was
      recorded at October 31, 2006.





Net
      Income. Net income decreased $0.878 million, or 18.8% to $3.8 million for the
      nine months ended October 31, 2006 from $4.7 million for the nine months ended
      October 31, 2005. The decrease in net income primarily resulted from lower
      sales
      volumes in our disposable and chemical protective suit lines and meeting
      competitive market prices in our disposable garment division in the second
      quarter, the increased operating expenses described above, and the combined
      operating losses of $1,017,000 of the new foreign operations. Earnings per
      share
      were $0.69 for the nine months ended October 31, 2006 compared to $0.85 for
      the
      nine months ended October 31, 2005 (after reflecting adjustments resulting
      from
      the 10% stock dividend payable to holders of record August 1,
      2006).




Overall
      inventories decreased by $1.8 million from their July 31, 2006 levels. The
      decrease in gross margins in Q3 of FY07 was mainly due the raw materials
      purchased in the early part of FY 07 at higher prices. The raw materials
      purchased through November 2005 are now no longer in inventory, having benefited
      the Company as lower costs through approximately the end of June 2006. From
      July
      2006 through approximately mid September, the Company's raw materials costs
      have
      been charged to cost of goods at a higher cost resulting from purchases made
      from December 2005 to February 2006 at a reduced level but at a higher cost.
      The
      Company has started to realize the benefits of its recent discounted purchases
      in the latter part of September, lasting approximately through its fourth fiscal
      quarter. Raw material purchasing continued at higher levels than normal through
      July 2006 in order to take advantage of discounts offered by suppliers. Such
      discounts should positively impact our fourth quarter earnings as these
      discounted raw materials roll through our international pipelines. This discount
      expired for purchases made after mid July 2006. The Company has significantly
      curtailed its purchasing since then.




As
      of
      December 5, 2006, the Company's loan balance is approximately $5,073,000
      reflecting curtailed vendor purchases since mid July, offset by borrowings
      escrowed for the India acquisition transaction of $3,500,000.




On
      October 31, 2006, the Company’s balance sheet included total assets of $77.2
      million, cash and marketable securities of $3.4 million, working capital of
      $61.8 million, bank debt of $7.9 million and stockholders’ equity of $64.7
      million or $11.72 per share of book value after adjusting for the 10% stock
      dividend payable to holders of record August 1, 2006.





Christopher
      Ryan, the CEO commented that, “our market share and margins in our Disposable
      business is always challenging, but most of our sales growth has come from
      and
      continue to come from our New High Visibility Lines and International sales.
      An
      example of this is our acquisition one year ago of Mifflin Valley, Inc. We
      acquired both a new product line that runs at significantly higher margins
      than
      our Tyvek lines, and additionally an excellent management team. We also will
      continue to invest in our international sales and distribution operations.
      Although our new international operations in India, Chile and Japan were a
      $350,000 headwind to earnings this quarter and differing amounts in future
      quarters, it is our belief that these





investments
      will pay off in fiscal 2008, and more significantly contribute to earnings
      in
      even larger amounts in future years beyond FY 2008. Thus, we plan to continue
      to
      acquire other product lines in the future and grow them with our in place sales
      operations and our strong capital base. This is our long range growth strategy
      and it does not happen in one or two quarters’ time; but rather in one or two
      year’s time.”





As
      an
      example of similar international investments, we lost $552,000 in our British
      subsidiary over a 3 year period at which point it turned profitable and has
      contributed $218,000 to earnings in the current fiscal year to date. Management
      expects such profits not only to continue but to increase for the foreseeable
      future. We expect our fourth quarter earnings ending January 31, 2007 to improve
      significantly over this October 31, 2006 quarter due to lower losses in India
      and stabilizing to lower raw material prices as oil prices decrease. We believe
      this will be an enduring turn around for the next year as our gross margins
      improve and international losses diminish.
