Item 1.  Financial Statements:
   Introduction

                              CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS

         This report may include "forward-looking statements" within the meaning
of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements are all statements other than
statements of historical fact included in this report, including, without
limitation, the statements under the heading "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" regarding the
Company's financial position and liquidity, the Company's strategic
alternatives, future capital needs, development and capital expenditures
(including the amount and nature thereof), future net revenues, business
strategies, and other plans and objectives of management of the Company for
future operations and activities.

         Forward-looking statements are based on certain assumptions and
analyses made by the Company in light of its experience and its perception of
historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other
factors it believes are appropriate under the circumstances. These statements
are subject to a number of assumptions, risks and uncertainties, and factors in
the Company's other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"Commission"), general economic and business conditions, the business
opportunities that may be presented to and pursued by the Company, changes in
law or regulations and other factors, many of which are beyond the control of
the Company. Readers are cautioned that these statements are not guarantees of
future performance, and the actual results or developments may differ materially
from those projected in the forward-looking statements. All subsequent written
and oral forward-looking statements attributable to the Company or persons
acting on its behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by these
cautionary statements.

                                                                               1

1. Business

         Lakeland Industries, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the "Company"), a Delaware
     corporation, organized in April 1982, is engaged primarily in the
     manufacture of personal safety protective work clothing. The principal
     market for the Company's products is the United States. No customer
     accounted for more than 10% of net sales during the six month periods ended
     July 31, 2001 and 2000.

2. Basis of Presentation

         The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have
     been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and
     regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and reflect all
     adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present
     fairly the consolidated financial information required therein. Certain
     information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements
     prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
     United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such
     rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures
     are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. It is
     suggested that these condensed consolidated financial statements be read in
     conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes
     thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the
     Securities and Exchange Commission for the year ended January 31, 2001. The
     results of operations for the three-month and six-month periods ended July
     31, 2001 and 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
     expected for the full year.

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined on the
first-in, first-out method.
                                                                               6




5. Earnings Per Share

         Basic earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of
     common shares outstanding without consideration of potential common shares.
     Diluted earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of
     common and potential common shares outstanding. The diluted earnings per
     share calculation takes into account the shares that may be issued upon
     exercise of stock options, reduced by the shares that may be repurchased
     with the funds received from the exercise based on the average price during
     the period.

         The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted
     earnings per share:



                                                                     Three Months Ended              Six Months Ended

         Excluded from the calculation of earnings per share are options to
     purchase 2,000 and 1,000 shares at July 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, as
     their inclusion would have been anti dilutive.

6. Credit Facility

         At July 31, 2001, the balance outstanding under the Company's secured
     revolving credit facility, as amended on July 12, 2001, amounted to
     $10,850,578. This facility, which is based on a percentage of eligible
     accounts receivable and inventory, as defined, up to a maximum of $18
     million, expires on July 31, 2002. Borrowings under the facility bear
     interest at a rate per annum equal to the one-month LIBOR rate, as defined,
     plus 2%. At July 31, 2001, the balance outstanding under the Company's term
     loan is $ 1,791,006. The term loan is payable in monthly installments of
     $89,500, plus interest payable at the 30-day commercial paper rate plus
     2.45%. The credit facility and term loan are collateralized by
     substantially all of the assets of the Company and guaranteed by certain of
     the Company's subsidiaries. The credit facility and term loan contain
     financial covenants, including, but

                                                                               7




     not limited to, minimum levels of earnings and maintenance of minimum
     tangible net worth and other certain ratios at all times. At July 31,2001,
     the Company received a waiver for non-compliance of a certain covenant.

7. Major Supplier

         The Company purchased approximately 80% of its raw materials from one
     supplier under licensing agreements during the six month period ended July
     31, 2001. The Company expects this relationship to continue for the
     foreseeable future. If required, similar raw materials could be purchased
     from other sources; although, the Company's competitive position in the
     marketplace could be affected.


                                                                               8




                   LAKELAND INDUSTRIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
                MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
                       CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

ITEM 2.
        Six months ended July 31, 2001 compared to the six months ended July 31,
2000.
               Net Sales. Net sales for the six months ended July 31, 2001
decreased $2,849,000 or 7.1% to $37,367,000 from $40,216,000 reported for the
six months ended July 31,2000. The decrease in sales was principally
attributable to general economic conditions and to the Company's filling
customer orders in the month of January just prior to the February 1, 2001 sales
price increase. Sales for the last month of the prior fiscal year were therefore
higher than normal. This industry continues to be highly competitive.

               Gross Profit. Gross profit for the six months ended July 31, 2001
increased by $37,000 or .6% to $6,610,000 from $6,573,000 for the six months
ended July 31, 2000. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased to
17.7% for the six months ended July 31, 2001 from 16.3% reported for the prior
year, principally due to the increase in selling prices, offset partially by an
increase in the cost of raw materials (from a major supplier).

               Operating Expenses. Operating expenses for the six months ended
July 31, 2001increased by $52,000 or 1.1% to 4,581,000 or 12.3% of net sales
from $4,529,000 or 11.3% of net sales for the six months ended July 31,2000.
Operating expenses increased principally as a result of increased freight costs,
R&D expense, and insurance expense.

               Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased primarily due to
lower interest costs reflecting a decrease in average borrowings under the
Company's credit facilities and decreasing interest rates.
               Income Tax Expense. The effective tax rate for the six months
ended July 31, 2001 and 2000 of 20.98% and 28.67%, respectively, deviates from
the Federal statutory rate of 34%, which is primarily attributable to differing
foreign tax rates and state income taxes.

               Net Income. As a result of the foregoing, net income increased to
$1,219,000 for the six months ended July 31, 2001 or 17.6% from net income of
$1,037,000 for the six months ended July 31, 2000.

        Three months ended July 31, 2001 compared to the three months ended July
31, 2000.
               Net Sales. Net sales for three months ended July 31, 2001
decreased $177,000 or 1% to $17,932,000 from $18,109,000 reported for the three
months ended July 31, 2000. The decrease in sales was principally attributable
to overall economic conditions, partially offset by the February price increase.
This industry continues to be highly competitive.

               Gross Profit. Gross profit for the quarter ended July 31, 2001
decreased by $6,000 or .2% to $3,213,000 from $3,219,000 for the quarter ended
July 31, 2000. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased to 17.9% for
the three months ended July 31, 2001 from 17.8% reported for the prior year,
principally due to the increase in selling prices, offset by an increase in the
cost of raw materials (from a major supplier).

               Operating Expenses. Operating expenses for the quarter ended July
31, 2001 decreased by $37,000 or 1.5% to $2,402,000 or 13.4% of net sales from
$2,439,000 or 13.5% of net sales for the quarter ended July 31, 2000. Operating
expenses decreased principally as a result of decreased expenses related to a
decrease in sales volume.

               Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased primarily due to
lower interest costs reflecting a decrease in average borrowing under the
Company's credit facilities and decreasing interest rates.

               Income Tax Expense. The effective tax rate for the three months
ended July 31, 2001 and 2000 of 9.7% and 19.3%, respectively, deviates from the
Federal statutory rate of 34%, which is primarily attributable to differing
foreign tax rates and state income taxes.

               Net Income. As a result of the foregoing, net income increased to
$530,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2001 or 40.1% from net income of
$376,000 for the three months ended July 31, 2000.


                                                                               9




LIQUIDITY and CAPITAL RESOURCES

      Liquidity and Capital Resources. The Company's working capital is equal to
$16,600,000 at July 31, 2001. The Company's primary sources of funds for
conducting its business activities have been from cash flow provided by
operations and borrowings under its credit facilities. The Company requires
liquidity and working capital primarily to fund increases in inventories and
accounts receivable associated with sales growth and, to a lesser extent, for
capital expenditures.

         Net cash provided by operating activities was $2,250,000 for the six
months ended July 31, 2001 and was due primarily to a decrease in accounts
receivable of $2,483,000, offset by the decrease in accounts payable $1,713,000
and net income of $1,219,000.

        Net cash used in financing activities of $1,733,000 was primarily
attributable to net borrowings of $1,460,000 during the six months in connection
with the revolving credit facility, offset by repayments under the term loan of
$308,000.

        The revolving credit facility permits the Company to borrow up to a
maximum of $18 million. The revolving credit agreement expires on July 31, 2002
and has therefore been classified as a short-term liability in the accompanying
balance sheet at July 31, 2001. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility
amounted to approximately $10,851,000 at July 31, 2001. The $3 million term-loan
agreement entered into in November 1999 has an outstanding balance of $1,791,000
and expires on March 31, 2003.

        The Company believes that cash flow from operations and the revolving
credit facility will be sufficient to meet its currently anticipated operating,
capital expenditures and debt service requirements for at least the next 12
months.

        Foreign Currency Activity.  The Company's foreign exchange exposure is
principally limited to the relationship of the U.S. Dollar to the Mexican Peso,
the Chinese RMB and the Canadian Dollar.
