Item 4.  Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant.

On March 25, 2002, the Board of Directors of Lands' End, Inc. ("the
Company") and its Audit Committee dismissed Arthur Andersen LLP
("Arthur Andersen") as the Company's independent public accountants
and engaged Ernst & Young LLP ("Ernst & Young") to serve as the
Company's independent public accountants for the fiscal year ending
January 31, 2003.  The Company is seeking shareholder ratification
at the Company's 2002 Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held in
May, 2002.

Arthur Andersen's reports on the Company's consolidated financial
statements for each of the fiscal years ended February 1, 2002,
January 26, 2001 and January 28, 2000 did not contain an adverse
opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or
modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

During the fiscal years ended February 1, 2002, January 26, 2001 and
January 28, 2000 and through the date hereof, there were no
disagreements with Arthur Andersen on any matter of accounting
principle or practice, financial statement disclosure, or auditing
scope or procedure which, if not resolved to Arthur Andersen's
satisfaction, would have caused Arthur Andersen to make reference to
the subject matter in connection with their report on the Company's
consolidated financial statements for such years.  There were no
reportable events as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K
during the period mentioned in the prior sentence.

The Company provided Arthur Andersen with a copy of the foregoing
disclosures. Attached as Exhibit 16.1 is a copy of Arthur Andersen's
letter, dated April 12, 2002, stating its agreement with such
statements.

During the fiscal years ended February 1, 2002 and January 26, 2001
and through the date hereof, the Company did not consult Ernst &
Young with respect to the application of accounting principles to a
specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of
audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's consolidated
financial statements, or any other matters or reportable events as
set forth in Items 304(a)(2)(i) and (ii) of Regulation S-K.
