This sourcing agreement (this "Agreement") is dated May 1, 2002, and is between

Designs is engaged in the business of retail sale of apparel and accessories
("Merchandise") at retail locations throughout the United States.  Designs has
submitted a bid to acquire, subject to Section 363 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code,
substantially all the assets of Casual Male Corp., a Massachusetts corporation,
and certain related entities (collectively, "Casual Male"; that acquisition, the
"Casual Male Acquisition") and has entered into an agreement with
Kellwood under which Kellwood has agreed, subject only to the execution and
delivery of this Agreement, to lend $10 million to Designs on a subordinated
basis, in exchange for a promissory note from Designs to Kellwood (the "Note")
to be applied by the Company in whole or in part to fund a portion of the
proposed purchase price of the Casual Male Acquisition.

As a condition to the parties' entering into and performing their obligations
under the above referenced agreement and the Note, , the parties are entering
into this Agreement.

The parties therefore agree as follows:

                                Article 1
                      SOURCING AND SUPPLY SERVICES

1.1	Sourcing and Supply Services.  Kellwood shall manufacture or cause to be
manufactured Merchandise for sale to Designs (which for purposes of Article 1
and Article 2 will be deemed to include Designs or any of its Affiliates,
including those operating the business acquired from Casual Male), in accordance
with orders placed with Kellwood by Designs (such Merchandise when ordered by
Designs from Kellwood under this Agreement, "Products").  During the term of
this Agreement, the products and services to be provided by Kellwood hereunder
will be non-exclusive, and subject to Section 1.2, Designs will have the right
to source Merchandise from any Person, it being understood that Kellwood will
not have any obligation with respect to Merchandise sourced from such other
Persons.

1.2	Minimum Quantity.  Each Contract Year, provided the Casual Male
acquisition has been consummated, Designs shall place with Kellwood orders for
Products having not less than the following aggregate whole Product Cost ( the
"Minimum Quantity") (not including the Merchandise currently being supplied by
Kellwood to Designs which includes Dockers Exact(r) and Slates(r) product for
Designs Levis/Dockers outlet stores), so long as such Products, satisfactory to
Designs in quality and quantity, are timely supplied by Kellwood at reasonably
competitive prices:
	Contract Year 1		$50,000,000
	Contract Year 2		$52,500,000
	Contract Year 3		$55,125,000
	Contract Year 4		$57,881,250
	Contract Year 5		$60,775,312
	Contract Year 6		$63,814,077
	Contract Year 7		$67,004,780

	(a)	For purposes of this Agreement, "Product Cost" of any Products means
the wholesale price of those Products invoiced by Kellwood to Designs, which
includes the Cost of Goods Sold (as defined in Section 2.3) and the related
Margins (as defined in Section 2.2).

	(b)	Designs and Kellwood shall cooperate in good faith to assure that
the prices charged or proposed to be charged to Designs by Kellwood are
reasonably competitive.

	(c)	In the event that the aggregate Product Cost of Designs' purchases
of Products from Kellwood in any Contract Year shall be less than the Minimum
Quantity for such Contract Year specified in (a) above, then (i) the Minimum
Quantity specified in (a) above for the immediately following Contract Year
shall be increased by the amount of such shortfall, up to 20% of the Minimum
Quantity so specified for the Contract Year in which such shortfall
occurred, and (ii) Designs shall pay to Kellwood as liquidated damages an amount
equal to 15.5% of the amount of such shortfall (if any) in excess of 20% of such
Minimum Quantity so specified for such Contract Year.  In the event that the
Minimum Quantity for any such following Contract Year has been so increased by
up to 20% of the shortfall from the preceding Contract Year, then to the extent,
if any, that the aggregate cost of Designs' purchases of Products from
Kellwood in such immediately following Contract Year shall be less than the
Minimum Quantity for such following Contract Year (as so increased), Designs
shall pay to Kellwood as liquidated damages an amount equal to 15.5% of such
shortfall in such following Contract Year, and no further payment or adjustment
shall be due and no further increase shall be made by reason of such past
shortfalls in the Minimum Quantity specified for any subsequent Contract Year.

1.3	Purchasing Procedure.  At its expense, Designs shall prepare and deliver
reasonably detailed Product specifications in writing to Kellwood.

	(a)	Kellwood shall then promptly supply Designs with samples of the
Products so ordered.
	(b)	If such samples are satisfactory to Designs in quality and the
Product Cost is competitive, Designs shall then, using purchase orders in a form
reasonably acceptable to Kellwood (including providing for a commercially
reasonable schedule for delivery), authorize Kellwood to manufacture and sell to
Designs those Products in the quantities specified in such purchase orders.
	(c)	Kellwood shall then promptly confirm those orders in writing and use
commercially reasonable efforts to comply with the specifications and timing
requirements of Designs.
	(d)	Designs may, at its expense and if it deems appropriate, cause its
employees and representatives to travel to Kellwood's offices and to facilities
of Kellwood in connection with the purchase of Merchandise.
	(e)	Designs may return to Kellwood for full credit any Products that
Designs , in good faith, determines to be commercially defective.  To the extent
that any defective product, together with any claims, as specified in Section
2.5, exceeds 5% of the Minimum Quantity for the Contract Year, as specified in
Section 1.2, such amount will be credited for purposes of determining Designs'
compliance with its obligations under Section 1.2.

1.4	Forecasts by Designs.  In order to facilitate Kellwood's sourcing of
Products, Designs shall provide Kellwood from time to time and as reasonably
requested by Kellwood with forecasts of the quantity and type of Merchandise
Designs intends to purchase under this Agreement in the reasonably foreseeable
future, but in no event more than six months ahead of placing orders.

1.5	Maintenance of Records by Kellwood; Audit Rights.  Kellwood shall provide
to Designs summary and detailed invoice and  Cost of  Goods Sold information
with respect to each purchase order Designs places under this Agreement.
Kellwood shall maintain reasonably complete and accurate records of all Products
ordered, in process, finished, or in transit sufficient to support such invoices
and Cost of Goods Sold and shall at the request of Designs provide reasonable
access to, or copies of, those records.

1.6	Post-Order Responsibility.  Once a purchase order has been submitted to
Kellwood, Designs may not materially modify or cancel that order without
Kellwood's prior written consent, which shall not unreasonably be withheld.
Designs may, however, modify or cancel without Kellwood's prior written consent
a purchase order submitted to Kellwood if Kellwood fails to comply in any
material respect with the terms of that purchase order, in which case the rights
of Designs will be governed by the terms of that purchase order.  Designs shall
bear all out-of-pocket costs reasonably incurred by Kellwood as a result of any
material modification or cancellation of a purchase order by Designs.  Kellwood
shall promptly advise Designs of any anticipated problems or delays in
production or delivery and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve
any such problems.

1.7	Involvement by Kellwood Personnel.  Kellwood will provide the dedicated
services of such Kellwood personnel as may be reasonably necessary for the full
performance of this Agreement.

                         DELIVERY AND PAYMENT

2.1	Delivery of Products.  Kellwood will be deemed to have completed delivery
of any Products, and title risk of loss with respect to those Products will pass

in foreign and domestic ports.

the related Margins (as defined in Section 2.2.) The "Cost of Goods Sold" for

manufacturing the product.  In addition, Cost of Goods Sold shall include
properly allocable warehousing and distribution costs.

purchase order for delivery of those Products, if that date is 10 days or more
after the date of actual delivery of those Products, Kellwood shall notify
Designs of the total amount due to Kellwood for the Product Cost for such
Products.  Within 60 days of Kellwood's presentation to Designs of Kellwood's
invoice for any Products (the end of that 60-day period, the "Payment
Deadline"), Designs or one of its Affiliates shall pay to Kellwood the Product
Cost for those Products by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an

payments, or other financial concessions, together with the Product Cost of any
defective Product, as specified in 1.3(e)exceeds 5% of the Minimum Quantity for
the Contract Year, as specified in Section 1.2, such amount will be credited for
purposes of determining Designs' compliance with its obligations under Section
1.2.
