         REPORT ON FORM 10-K FOR THE FISCAL PERIOD ENDED JUNE 28, 2003

I, J. Craig Peterson, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer
(Principal Financial Officer) of GFSI, Inc., certify that:

1.   I have reviewed this Annual Report on Form 10-K of GFSI, Inc.;

2.   Based on my knowledge, this Annual Report does not contain any
     untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact
     necessary to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances
     under which such statements were made, not misleading with respect
     to the period covered by this Annual Report;

3.   Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial
     information included in this Annual Report, fairly present in all
     material respects the financial condition, results of operations and
     cash flows of the registrant as of, and for, the periods presented
     in this Annual Report;

4.   The registrant's other certifying officer and I are responsible for
     establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as
     defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the
     registrant and have:

     (a)  Designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused
          such disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under
          our supervision, to ensure that material information relating
          to the registrant, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is
          made known to us by others within those entities, particularly
          during the period in which this Annual Report is being
          prepared;

      (b) Evaluated the effectiveness of the registrant's disclosure
          controls and procedures and presented in this Annual Report our
          conclusions about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls
          and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this
          Annual Report based on such evaluations; and

      (c) Disclosed in this Annual Report any change in the registrant's
          internal control over financial reporting that occurred during
          the registrant's fourth fiscal quarter that has materially
          affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the
          registrant's internal control over financial reporting; and

 5.   The registrant's other certifying officer and I have disclosed,
      based on our most recent evaluation of internal control over
      financial reporting, to the registrant's auditors and the audit
      committee of registrant's board of directors (or persons
      performing the equivalent function):

      (a)  All significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the
           design or operation of internal control over financial
           reporting which are reasonably likely to adversely affect the
           registrant's ability to record, process, summarize and report
           financial information; and

      (b)  Any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or
           other employees who have a significant role in the registrant's
           internal control over financial reporting.
