  JoS. A. Bank Clothiers Kicks Off 2007 Miracle Tie Campaign; National Program
          has Raised Over $500,000 for Johns Hopkins Children's Center

    HAMPSTEAD, Md.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 8, 2007--JoS. A. Bank
Clothiers (Nasdaq Global Select Market: "JOSB"), in partnership with
the Johns Hopkins Children's Center, today announced the kick off of
its annual Miracle Tie Collection program. Pediatric patients and
local celebrities will unveil the 2007 Miracle Tie Collection(R) at
the 12th annual "Tie Into a Miracle" fashion show at the JoS. A. Bank
Clothiers store at 800 Kenilworth Drive in Towson, Maryland at 1:00
p.m. today.

    The national program, now in its 12th year, raises money for
Hopkins Children's through sales of specially designed ties sold in
more than one-third of the 410 JoS. A. Bank stores nationwide and
through its catalog and E-commerce website. The program continues
through December 31, 2007. JoS. A. Bank will donate all of the profits
from the sales to Hopkins Children's.

    "The Miracle Tie program 'ties' together our desire to help our
community, especially children, with our skills in developing fun,
creative ties," stated Robert N. Wildrick, CEO of JoS. A. Bank
Clothiers, Inc.

    "JoS. A. Bank's Miracle Tie Collection(R) has changed lives at
Hopkins Children's," says George Dover, M.D., director and
pediatrician-in-chief of the Johns Hopkins Children's Center. "Each
Miracle Tie artist is filled with a tremendous sense of pride in his
or her work, and JoS. A. Bank should be proud of the difference they
have made in the form of over $500,000 to support pediatric patient
care."

    In addition, Gov. Martin O'Malley declared today "Tie Into a
Miracle Day" in the state of Maryland.

    The line of silk neckties was inspired by the artwork of patients
at Hopkins Children's. All proceeds from sales of these ties will go
toward research and patient care at Hopkins Children's. Since the
program was established in 1995, JoS. A. Bank has contributed over
$500,000 to Hopkins Children's for research and patient care.

    The Miracle Tie Collection includes nine designs created by
children who are patients at Hopkins Children's and signify something
important to each child. Each child was asked to draw one of his or
her favorite activities or things.

    Founded in 1912 as the children's hospital of the Johns Hopkins
Medical Institutions, the Johns Hopkins Children's Center offers one
of the most comprehensive pediatric medical programs in the country,
treating more than 90,000 children each year. U.S. News & World Report
ranks Hopkins Children's among the top three children's hospitals in
the nation. Hopkins Children's is Maryland's only state-designated
Trauma Service and Burn Unit for pediatric patients. It has recognized
Centers of Excellence in 20 pediatric subspecialties including
cardiology, transplant, psychiatric illnesses and genetic disorders.
