Item 2.03	Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

On December 15, 2004, Phillips-Van Heusen Corporation ("PVH") entered into an Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement,
dated as of that date (the "Revolving Credit Agreement"), among PVH, The IZOD Corporation, PVH Wholesale Corp., PVH Retail Corp.,
izod.com inc., G.H. Bass Franchises Inc., CD Group Inc., PVH CK Stores, Inc., PVH Ohio, Inc., PVH Michigan, Inc., PVH Pennsylvania, Inc., PVH
Wholesale New Jersey, Inc., PVH Retail Management Company (collectively, "Borrowers") and the lender parties thereto, JPMorgan Chase
Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, Joint Lead Arranger and Sole Bookrunner, Fleet Retail Group, Inc., as Joint Lead
Arranger and Co-Syndication Agent, Sun Trust Bank, as Co-Syndication Agent, The CIT Group/Commercial Services, Inc., as Co-Documentation Agent,
and General Electric Capital Corporation, as Co-Documentation Agent.  The Revolving Credit Agreement amends and restates PVH's Revolving Credit
Agreement, dated as of October 17, 2002, as amended, among PVH, the other Borrowers, the lenders party thereto, JPMorgan Chase Bank, as
Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, Lead Arranger and Sole Bookrunner, Fleet Retail Finance Inc., as Co-Arranger and Co-Syndication
Agent, Sun Trust Bank, as Co-Syndication Agent, The CIT Group/Commercial Services, Inc., as Co-Documentation Agent, and Bank of America, N.A.,
as Co-Documentation Agent.

The Revolving Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility of up to $325,000,000 for both revolving credit borrowings and
letters of credit, with a sublimit of $30,000,000 for standby letters of credit and with no sublimit on trade letters of credit.  Advances
under the Revolving Credit Agreement are also limited to a borrowing base consisting of specified percentages of eligible categories of assets.
Advances may be prepaid, in whole or in part, at any time without premium or penalty (other than a facility termination fee and LIBOR breakage
costs).  Subject to certain exceptions, the Revolving Credit Agreement requires mandatory prepayments with the proceeds from asset sales or
other dispositions and the issuance of new equity and debt securities.  All obligations under the Revolving Credit Agreement are secured by
liens on substantially all of PVH's assets and the assets of PVH's domestic subsidiaries and a pledge of all of the equity interests in all of
PVH's domestic subsidiaries.  In addition, the Borrowers' obligations under the Revolving Credit Agreement are guaranteed by all of PVH's
domestic subsidiaries that are not Borrowers.

Borrowing spreads and letters of credit fees are based on spreads above LIBOR and other available interest rates, with the spreads changing
based upon a pricing grid.  For example, revolving credit spreads range from 0 to 25 basis points over prime on prime rate loans, 125 to 225
basis points over LIBOR on LIBOR rate loans and 75 to 150 basis points on outstanding letters of credit.  All outstanding borrowings and
letters of credit under the Revolving Credit Agreement are due December 15, 2009.

The Revolving Credit Agreement contains a number of covenants, including certain covenants that limit, among other things, PVH's and/or the
other Borrower's ability to (1) incur debt, (2) incur liens, (3) pay dividends or make distributions to stockholders, (4) prepay, retire,
repurchase or redeem indebtedness, (5) repurchase or redeem capital stock, (6) sell assets and (7) merge or consolidate with other
companies.

Events of default under the Revolving Credit Agreement include, but are not limited to (1) the Borrowers' failure to pay principal or
interest when due, (2) the Borrowers' material breach of any representation or warranty, (3) covenant defaults, (4) cross-defaults to other
indebtedness in excess of an agreed amount, (5) events of bankruptcy, (6) monetary judgment defaults, (7) customary ERISA defaults, (8) a
change of control, (9) impairment of loan documentation, security or seniority over subordinated debt and (10) certain tax liens.  In addition,
if PVH ceases to own 100% of the fully-diluted equity in the other Borrowers, such event could also result in an event of default.

Item 8.01	Other Events.

On December 10, 2004, PVH completed its previously announced acquisition of the Arrow brand worldwide and the related licensing
business from affiliates of Cluett American Group, Inc. for approximately $70 million in cash.  The transaction consisted of the acquisition
from Cluett American Corp., Consumer Direct Corporation and Cluett Peabody Holding Corp. of all of the outstanding shares of common stock of
Cluett Peabody Resources Corporation ("Resources") and Cluett Peabody & Co., Inc. ("CP&Co.").  Resources is the
worldwide owner of the ARROW trademark, principally for apparel, footwear and related goods, and certain related marks.  CP&Co. licensed
the ARROW marks from Resources and, in turn, licensed them to third parties throughout the world.  Prior to the acquisition, PVH licensed the
ARROW marks in the United States from Resources and CP&Co. for use on and in connection with men's and boys' dress shirts and sportswear.
The license had been in effect since mid-2000.  A copy of the Purchase Agreement pursuant to which the transaction was effected is attached as
Exhibit 10.1 to this Report, and a copy of the press release announcing the completion of the transaction is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this
Report.
