          Weyco Reports Record Second Quarter Sales & Earnings

    MILWAUKEE, July 22 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Weyco Group, Inc.
(Nasdaq: WEYS), today announced results for the second quarter ended June 30,
2003.  The Company reported earnings of a record $3,593,000 or $.91 per
diluted share, a 112% per share increase over the net earnings of $1,649,000
or $.43 per diluted share for the second quarter 2002.  Net sales for the
second quarter of 2003 were a record $51,000,000, up 57% from second quarter
2002 net sales of $32,533,000.

    The increases in the first quarter came from both the wholesale and retail
divisions.  Wholesale net sales for the second quarter of 2003 were
$44.9 million versus $29.6 million in the second quarter last year.  Retail
sales were $6.1 million this year compared with $2.9 million last year.

    The increases in net sales and earnings for the quarter are primarily due
to the acquisition of the domestic wholesale business and twenty-three retail
stores of Florsheim Group, Inc. on May 20, 2002.  The increase in net sales
for the second quarter relating to Florsheim's wholesale and retail operations
were $13.1 million and $3.5 million, respectively. The Company's Nunn Bush and
Stacy Adams divisions also contributed to the increases with sales for the
second quarter up 5% and 10%, respectively.

    "We had a tremendous first half of 2003" stated Thomas W. Florsheim, Jr.,
Weyco's Chairman and CEO.  "The addition of Florsheim has clearly had a
positive effect on our bottom line, and we are also very pleased that both our
Nunn Bush and Stacy Adams divisions posted increases in the first six months
of the year.  We believe that we have accomplished a great deal in a very
difficult retail environment.

    "June 2003 marks the anniversary of our first shipments of the Florsheim
brand.  Going forward, we do not expect to see the level of sales and earnings
increases that we have enjoyed over the past four quarters since the
comparable figures will now include the additional Florsheim volume."

    On July 1, 2003, the Company paid a regular quarterly dividend of $.14 per
share to shareholders of record March 3, 2003.

    Weyco Group, Inc., headquartered in Milwaukee, WI, is engaged in the
manufacture, purchase and distribution of men's footwear.  The principal
brands of shoes sold are Florsheim, Nunn Bush, Nunn Bush NXXT, Brass Boot,
Stacy Adams, and SAO by Stacy Adams.  The Company's products consist of
quality leather dress and casual shoes.
