       BRAZOS TO AUCTION EQUIPMENT, INVENTORY AND OTHER ASSETS OF
              CINCINNATI MANUFACTURING FACILITY ON JUNE 8


      CINCINNATI, OHIO --JUNE 7, 1999 --Brazos Sportswear, Inc. (OTC BB: BRZS)
announced today it has completed the sale of its Red Oak Sportswear division
located in College Station, Texas to Red Oak Acquisition, Inc., headed by Red
Oak founder George Warny. Red Oak, a manufacturer of screen-printed sportswear
to major retailers, was founded in 1984 and acquired by Brazos Sportswear in
1989.
      AThe acquisition of Red Oak by founder George Warny is in the best
interests of all of Red Oak's constituents --its customers, employees and
vendors,@ said Clayton Chambers, Brazos' interim chief executive officer.
      AThe sale of Red Oak Sportswear, combined with our sale last month of the
Gulf Coast Sportswear division, are key steps in our efforts to maximize
creditor recoveries,@ Mr. Chambers said. He noted that the proceeds of the Red
Oak sale, like those of the sale of Gulf Coast last month, will be used to
reduce the outstanding balance under Brazos' debtor-in-possession (DIP) loan
facility.

      Brazos announced on May 19, 1999 that it will sell substantially all of
the assets of its business units through competitive bidding procedures under
Section 363 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. Offers for the Company's Morning Sun,
Plymouth Mills, Brazos Embroidery, Sunrise Turquoise and Crable divisions are to
be received by noon Eastern time on June 8, 1999 at the New York offices of BT
Alex. Brown Incorporated, the Company's exclusive advisor with respect to the
sale process.

      As previously announced, Brazos is scheduled to sell certain of the
Company's Cincinnati assets at a public auction at 10 a.m. on June 8 at its
Batavia, Ohio facility at 4101 Founders Boulevard. The auction is open to the
public and will be conducted by Continental Plants. Items to be auctioned
include embroidery and screen printing machines, office furniture and equipment,
office cubicles, computers, personal computers (PCS), forklifts, vans and other
miscellaneous assets.
      Brazos Sportswear, Inc., designs, produces and markets moderately priced
sportswear. Headquartered in Cincinnati, Ohio, it operates manufacturing,
distribution and sales facilities in 12 states. The Company and its subsidiaries
filed Chapter 11 petitions in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of
Delaware in Wilmington on January 21, 1999.
