QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Q.
Why is Lands’ End distributing this Proxy Statement?
​
A.
Our Board of Directors is soliciting proxies for use at the Lands’ End, Inc. 2025 Annual Meeting (the “Annual Meeting”) to be held on Wednesday, May 21, 2025, at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time, at the offices of Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz, 51 West 52nd Street, New York, NY 10019. In order to solicit your proxy, we must furnish you with this Proxy Statement, which contains information about the matters to be voted upon at the Annual Meeting.
​
Q.
What information is contained in these materials?
​
A.
The information included in this proxy statement relates to the proposals to be considered and voted on at the Annual Meeting, the voting process, the compensation of the directors and our most highly paid executive officers, and other required information. Our Form 10-K for fiscal year 2024 is available to review with this proxy statement. We are mailing the Notice of 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and instructions on how to access the proxy statement (or, for those who request it, a hard copy of this proxy statement and the enclosed form of proxy) to our stockholders on or about March 31, 2025.
​
Q.
Why did I receive a one-page notice in the mail regarding the Internet availability of proxy materials instead of a full set of proxy materials?
​
A.
In accordance with rules and regulations adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), instead of mailing a printed copy of our proxy materials to each stockholder, we are furnishing proxy materials, including this Proxy Statement and the Annual Report on Form 10-K, by providing access to such documents on the Internet. Most stockholders will not receive printed copies of the proxy materials unless they request them. Instead, a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice”) has been sent to most of our stockholders instructing them as to how to access and review the proxy materials on the Internet. The Notice also provides instructions as to how you may submit your proxy on the Internet. If you would like to receive a paper or email copy of our proxy materials, please follow the instructions for requesting such materials in the Notice.
​
Q.
What will stockholders be asked to do at the Annual Meeting?
​
A.
At the Annual Meeting, our stockholders will be asked to:
​
•
elect to Lands’ End’s Board of Directors the following seven nominees presented by the Board of Directors: Robert Galvin, Gordon Hartogensis, Elizabeth Leykum, Josephine Linden, John T. McClain, Andrew J. McLean, and Alicia Parker;
​
•
vote on a non-binding advisory resolution to approve the compensation of our named executive officers (as identified under “Executive Compensation”);
​
•
ratify the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year 2025; and
​
•
consider any other business that may properly come before the Annual Meeting or any adjournments or postponements of the Annual Meeting.
​
Q.
What does it mean to vote by proxy?
​
A.
It means that you give someone else the right to vote your shares in accordance with your instructions. In this way, you ensure that your vote will be counted even if you are unable to attend the Annual Meeting. If you give your proxy but do not include specific instructions on how to vote, the individuals named as proxies will vote your shares as follows:
​
•
FOR the election of all seven of the Board of Directors’ nominees for election to the Board of Directors;
​
1

TABLE OF CONTENTS
•
FOR the approval, on a non-binding advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers as described in this Proxy Statement; and
​
•
FOR the ratification of the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year 2025.
​
Q.
Who is entitled to vote?
​
A.
Only holders of our common stock at the close of business on March 24, 2025 (the “Record Date”) are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. Each outstanding share of common stock is entitled to one vote. There were 30,881,427 shares of our common stock outstanding on the Record Date.
​
Q.
How do I cast my vote?
​
A.
If you hold your shares directly in your own name, you are a “registered stockholder” and can complete and submit a proxy through the Internet, by telephone or by mail (if you received your proxy materials by mail) or vote in person at the Annual Meeting. If your shares are held in the name of a broker or other nominee, you are a “street-name stockholder” and will receive instructions from your broker or other nominee describing how to vote your shares.
​
Q.
How do I vote by telephone or through the Internet?
​
A.
If you are a registered stockholder, you may vote by telephone or through the Internet following the instructions in the Notice or in the proxy card. If you are a street-name stockholder, your broker or other nominee will provide information for you to use in directing your broker or nominee how to vote your shares.
​
Q.
Who will count the vote?
​
A.
A representative of Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc., an independent tabulator, will count the vote and act as the inspector of election.
​
Q.
Can I change my vote after I have voted?
​
A.
A subsequent vote by any means will change your prior vote. For example, if you voted by telephone, a subsequent Internet vote will change your vote. If you are a registered stockholder and wish to change your vote by mail, you may do so by requesting, in writing, a proxy card from the Secretary of the Company at Lands’ End, Inc., Legal Department, 5 Lands’ End Lane, Dodgeville, Wisconsin 53595, Attention: Secretary. The last vote timely received prior to the Annual Meeting will be the one counted. If you are a registered stockholder, you may also change your vote by voting in person at the Annual Meeting. Street- name stockholders wishing to change their votes must contact the broker or nominee directly (the holder of record). If you are a street-name stockholder, you are not the record holder of your shares, and while you are welcome to attend the Annual Meeting, you will not be permitted to vote unless you obtain a signed proxy from your bank, broker or other nominee.
​
Q.
Can I revoke a proxy?
​
A.
Yes, registered stockholders may revoke a properly executed proxy at any time before it is exercised by submitting a letter addressed to and received by the Secretary at the address listed in the answer to the previous question, or by voting in person at the meeting. If you are a street-name stockholder, you must contact your broker or other nominee for instructions on how to revoke your voting instructions for your shares.
​
Q.
What does it mean if I receive more than one Notice, proxy or voting instruction card?
​
A.
It means your shares are registered differently or are in more than one account. For all Notices you receive, please enter your vote by Internet for each control number you have been assigned. If you received paper copies of proxy materials, please complete, sign and mail all proxy and voting instruction
​

cards you receive. We encourage you to register all your accounts in the same name and address. Registered stockholders may contact our transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company, N.A., at P.O. Box 43006, Providence RI 02940-3078 (1-866-627-2096). Street-name stockholders holding shares through a broker or other nominee should contact their broker or nominee and request consolidation of their accounts.
Q.
What is a quorum?
​
A.
A majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote, being present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting, constitutes a quorum. A quorum is necessary to conduct the Annual Meeting.
​
Q.
How many votes are needed to approve each of the proposals?
​
A.
Item 1: The director nominees will be elected by a plurality of the votes cast by the shares of common stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting and present in person or represented by proxy. This means that the seven nominees who receive the most affirmative votes will be elected as directors.
​
Item 2: Approval of the compensation of our named executive officers on a non-binding advisory basis requires the affirmative vote of a majority of those shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the proposal.
Item 3: Ratification of the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm requires the affirmative vote of a majority of those shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the proposal.
Q.
What is the effect of an abstention?
​
A.
The shares of a stockholder who abstains from voting on a matter will be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting so long as the stockholder is present in person or represented by proxy. With regard to the election of directors, votes may be cast in favor or withheld, and votes that are withheld will have no effect. On all other matters, abstentions may be specified. An abstention from voting on a matter by a stockholder present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting has the same legal effect as a vote “against” all other proposals.
​
Q.
How will votes be counted on shares held through brokers?
​
A.
If you are a street-name stockholder and do not provide your broker with voting instructions, your shares may constitute “broker non-votes.” Generally, broker non-votes occur on a matter when a broker is not permitted to vote on that matter without instructions from the beneficial owner and instructions are not given. Brokers are not entitled to vote on the election of directors, or the advisory proposal to approve the compensation of our named executive officers, unless the brokers receive voting instructions from the beneficial owner. Broker non-votes will be treated as shares present for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. In tabulating the voting result for any particular proposal, shares that constitute broker non-votes are not considered present and entitled to vote on that proposal. Brokers will be permitted to vote without voting instructions on the ratification of the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm. Thus, broker non-votes will not affect the outcome of any matter being voted on at the Annual Meeting, assuming that a quorum is obtained.
​
Q.
Is cumulative voting permitted for the elections of directors?
​
A.
No, you may not cumulate your votes for the election of directors.
​
Q.
Who may attend the Annual Meeting?
​
A.
Any stockholder as of the Record Date may attend.
​
If you plan to attend the meeting, you will be required to present an admission ticket (or other acceptable proof of stock ownership) and a form of government-issued photo identification (such as a
3

TABLE OF CONTENTS
valid driver’s license or passport). If you plan to attend the meeting, we strongly urge you to notify us in advance by accessing www.proxyvote.com and following the instructions provided to attend the meeting (you will need the 16 digit number included on your proxy card, voting instruction form or Notice).
The following documents will be accepted as an admission ticket for those stockholders as of the Record Date who choose to attend the Annual Meeting:
•
If you received a Notice and will not be requesting a printed copy of the proxy materials, you may use your Notice as your admission ticket.
​
•
If your Lands’ End shares are registered in your name and you received your proxy materials by mail, you may use the admission ticket attached to your proxy card at the Annual Meeting.
​
•
If your Lands’ End shares are held in a bank or brokerage account, you can attend the annual meeting if you bring your Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or a recent bank or brokerage statement showing you owned shares of Lands’ End common stock on March 24, 2025. You may also contact your bank or broker to obtain a written legal proxy.
​
Q.
Will the meeting be held in person or virtually?
​
A.
We intend to hold our Annual Meeting in person. In the event it is not possible to hold our annual meeting in person, we will announce alternative arrangements for the meeting as promptly as practicable, which may include holding the meeting solely by means of remote communication which would allow stockholders to participate virtually. Please monitor our investor relations website at http://investors.landsend.com for updated information. If you are planning to attend our meeting, please check the website one week prior to the meeting date. We encourage you to vote your shares prior to the Annual Meeting even if you plan to attend in person.
​
Q.
Can I access future annual meeting materials through the Internet rather than receiving them by mail?
​
A.
Yes. Registered stockholders can sign up for electronic delivery at www.proxyvote.com. If you vote through the Internet, you can also sign up for electronic delivery. Just follow the instructions that appear after you finish voting. You will receive an e-mail next year containing links to our Annual Report on Form 10-K and the Proxy Statement for our 2025 Annual Meeting. Street-name stockholders may also have the opportunity to receive copies of these documents electronically. Please check the information provided in the proxy materials mailed to you by your broker or other nominee regarding the availability of this service. This procedure reduces the printing costs and fees we incur in connection with the solicitation of proxies.
​
Q.
What is “householding”?
​
A.
Lands’ End has adopted a procedure called “householding,” which has been approved by the SEC. Under this procedure, registered stockholders who have the same address and last name and do not receive proxy materials electronically will receive a single Notice or set of proxy materials, unless one or more of these stockholders notifies us that they wish to continue receiving individual copies. Stockholders who participate in householding will continue to receive separate proxy cards. This procedure can result in savings to Lands’ End by reducing printing and postage costs.
​
If your household received a single Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders or, if applicable, a single set of proxy materials this year, but you would prefer to receive your own copy, please contact Broadridge Householding Department, by calling their toll-free number, 1-866-540-7095 or by writing to: Broadridge, Householding Department, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, NY 11717. You will be removed from the householding program within 30 days of receipt of your instructions at which time you will then be sent separate copies of the documents.
Registered stockholders who share the same address, currently receive multiple copies of proxy materials, and wish to receive only one copy of these materials per household in the future may contact Broadridge Financial Solutions at the Householding Department address or telephone number listed above. Street-name stockholders should contact their broker or other nominee to request information about householding.

TABLE OF CONTENTS​
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Corporate Governance Practices
The Lands’ End Board of Directors is committed to effective corporate governance. The Board has approved and adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines that provide the framework for Lands’ End’s governance. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board reviews and assesses the Corporate Governance Guidelines annually and recommends changes to the Board as appropriate. The Corporate Governance Guidelines, along with the charters of Board committees, our Director Compensation Policy, our Code of Conduct and our Board of Directors Code of Conduct are available on our website at www.landsend.com, under the heading “Investor Relations” and then “Corporate Governance.”
Among other things, the Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that:
•
Independent directors will meet regularly in executive session in conjunction with regularly scheduled Board meetings.
​
•
Executive sessions of the independent directors will occur at least twice a year as determined by the independent directors.
​
•
The Board and each of its committees has the power to engage, at the Company’s expense, independent legal, financial, and other advisors as deemed necessary, without consulting or obtaining the approval of the Company’s officers in advance.
​
•
The Board will conduct annual self-evaluations to assess whether it and its committees are functioning effectively.
​
Director Independence
Based on the review and recommendation by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, the Board analyzed the independence of each director. In making its independence determinations, the Board considers transactions, relationships and arrangements, if any, between Lands’ End and entities with which directors are associated as executive officers, directors and trustees. When these transactions, relationships and arrangements exist, they are in the ordinary course of business and are of a type customary for a company like Lands’ End.
As a result of this review, the Board affirmatively determined that the following director nominees meet the standards of independence under the applicable Nasdaq Stock Market listing rules, including that each member is free of any relationship that would interfere with their individual exercise of independent judgment:
Robert Galvin
Gordon Hartogensis
Elizabeth Leykum
Josephine Linden
John T. McClain
Alicia Parker
In addition, each of Jinesh Patel and Jonah Staw, who served as a member of the Board during fiscal 2024 until the 2024 Annual Meeting held on May 9, 2024, was considered to have met the independence standard during his tenure as a member of the Board.
The Board also has determined that each member of the Audit Committee meets additional, heightened independence criteria applicable to audit committee members under the Nasdaq Stock Market listing rules and SEC Rule 10A-3, and each of Elizabeth Leykum, Josephine Linden, and John T. McClain is an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC.
The Board also has determined that all members of the Compensation Committee and of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee meet independence criteria applicable to such committee members under the Nasdaq Stock Market listing rules.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of our Board is responsible for reviewing the qualifications and independence of members of the Board and its various committees on a periodic basis, as well as the composition of the Board as a whole. This assessment includes members’ qualification as independent, as well as consideration of skills and experience in relation to the needs of the Board. New director nominees are recommended to the Board by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. The ultimate responsibility for selection of director nominees resides with the Board.
Corporate Citizenship
The Board believes that diversity promotes innovation and is integral to honoring Lands’ End’s commitment to “Take care of the customer, take care of the employee and the rest will take care of itself.” We believe the Board exhibits the diversity we foster within our employees. The Board and the Nominating and Governance Committee believe that it is important that our directors represent diverse viewpoints. Of the current seven members of the Board, three directors are female. While the Company does not have a formal Board diversity policy, the Board considers diversity as a factor, but not an overweighted or deciding factor, including diversity of racial, ethnic, gender and socio-economic background and diversity of thought and opinion, in identifying director nominees. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee discusses Board composition, including the diversity of the Board, annually.
ESG Oversight
The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Directors oversees Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) through reviewing with management the Company’s ESG strategies, initiatives and policies. In addition, the Board and its committees review and discuss with management matters related to human capital management, including Lands’ End’s commitments and progress on employee engagement, compensation and benefits, business conduct and compliance, and executive succession planning.
Sustainability Initiatives
Lands’ End is working towards improving its sustainable footprint through key practices like waste reduction, purchasing recycled consumables and corporate partnerships. Lands’ End hopes to inspire customers and other corporations to increase sustainability awareness and initiatives.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
We have a focus on raising awareness and educating our employees on reducing our internal use of consumables and natural resources. In addition, we have a broad range of recycling and waste management initiatives at our corporate office and distribution centers. We also focus on efficient water and energy management programs.
Lands’ End also participates in industry educational workshops and initiatives. We have formed strategic relationships with organizations like the Sustainable Apparel Coalition, National Forest Foundation, through which we have funded the planting of over 1.5 million trees, and the Clean Lakes Alliance, where we help protect and improve maintenance of local lakes in Wisconsin. These alliances, which respectively operate globally, nationally, and locally, allow us to engage at a variety of levels.
Human Capital
Since our founding in 1963, Lands’ End has recognized that our people are a critical asset. People, the individuals we employ, the customers we serve, and their families, are the heart of our company. We are committed to creating an inspiring culture that is welcoming for all who work and shop with us. Our founder, Gary Comer set the foundation with this quote, “The really important thing that makes Lands’ End what it has become is people. You, me, everyone around us. It is what we do as people that makes this a great place to come to work.”
We employ approximately 4,400 employees: approximately 4,100 employees in the United States and approximately 300 employees outside the United States. The U.S. workforce consists of approximately 48% part-time employees, 33% full-time hourly employees and 18% full-time salaried employees. With the seasonal nature of the fourth quarter holiday shopping season in the retail industry, approximately 1,500 additional, flexible, part-time employees are hired in the U.S. to support our customer service and distribution centers.

Global Compliance Program
Lands’ End is committed to conducting business with a high standard of business ethics, a regard for human rights and in compliance with all applicable laws. Moreover, we expect our product vendors to maintain similar standards in our entire supply chain, including but not limited to raw materials, fabric and trim suppliers, employee recruitment services as well as any secondary processing facilities whether owned, leased or contracted. We maintain a robust compliance program and hold our vendors to high ethical standards. Lands’ End has a long-standing Code of Conduct for our supply chain partners which prohibits the use of forced labor, modern slavery or human trafficking within our supply chain anywhere in the world. Lands’ End, in response to crisis in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region, removed suppliers who could not demonstrate compliance with our policies, and we require that for any fabric produced in China all cotton used be 100% sourced outside of China from certified sources. Additionally, we have shifted a sizeable amount of our production from China to other regions, such as Southeast Asia and the Indian sub-continent. The Global Compliance Program Requirements and the related processes, policies and procedures set forth certain basic and fundamental requirements that all domestic and international vendors must satisfy as a condition of doing business with Lands’ End. The requirements are developed based on local and national laws, International Labour Organization (ILO) conventions and benchmarked against industry protocols. Lands’ End utilizes an independent auditor to conduct factory inspections to ensure compliance with our Code of Conduct and our Global Compliance Program. We maintain an Ethics Hotline for reporting of suspected violations of our Code of Conduct and our policies by vendors, employees or customers. We also require posters to be placed in all factories with reporting information for suspected violations.

Communications with the Board
Our Board has adopted a policy and process for stockholders to communicate with the Board or an individual director. Stockholders may communicate with the Board collectively, or with any of its individual non-employee directors, by writing to Lands’ End, Inc. Board of Directors, c/o Secretary, Lands’ End, Inc., Legal Department, 5 Lands’ End Lane, Dodgeville, Wisconsin 53595. The Secretary has discretion to determine whether stockholder communications are proper for submission to the intended recipient. Examples of stockholder communications that would be considered presumptively inappropriate for submission include the following: communications regarding personal solicitations; spam and other junk mail; new product suggestions; resumes and other job inquiries; business solicitations or advertisements; communications that are unduly hostile, threatening, illegal, or similarly unsuitable; and communications that are frivolous in nature.
Board Leadership Structure
We currently separate the roles of Chief Executive Officer and Chair of the Board. Our Chief Executive Officer is responsible for the day-to-day leadership and performance of the Company, while the Chair of the Board provides guidance to our Chief Executive Officer and senior management and sets the agenda for and presides over our Board meetings. In carrying out her responsibilities, the Chair preserves the distinction between management and oversight, maintaining the responsibility of management to develop corporate strategy and the responsibility of the Board to review and express its views on corporate strategy and management’s execution of that strategy.
The Board’s Role in Risk Oversight
Consistent with our leadership structure, our Chief Executive Officer and other members of senior management are responsible for the identification, assessment, and management of risks that could affect
11

TABLE OF CONTENTS
the Company and the Board provides oversight in connection with these efforts. We do not believe that the Board’s role in risk oversight has an effect on the Company’s leadership structure. The Board’s oversight is conducted primarily through committees of the Board, as disclosed in the descriptions of the responsibilities of the Audit Committee and the Compensation Committee above and in the charters of such committees.
The Audit Committee is responsible for oversight of (1) risks and exposures associated with financial matters, particularly financial reporting, tax, accounting, disclosure, internal control over financial reporting, and credit and liquidity matters; (2) the Company’s enterprise risk management framework, including data protection and cybersecurity risk; and (3) the steps management has taken to monitor and control risks and exposures, including the Company’s risk assessment and risk management policies and strategies and programs and policies relating to legal compliance.
The Compensation Committee evaluates whether the risks arising from the Company’s compensation policies and practices for its employees would be reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company and has received management’s determination that our programs do not create risk that is reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.
The Board has retained responsibility for general oversight of risks. The Board satisfies this responsibility through full reports by each committee chair regarding the committee’s considerations and actions, as well as through regular reports directly from officers responsible for oversight of particular risks within the Company, including our Chief Financial Officer, our General Counsel, our Chief Technology Officer and our most senior internal audit and information security professionals.
Nomination of Director Candidates
Directors may be nominated by the Board or by stockholders in accordance with our Bylaws. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will, when it deems appropriate, actively seek individuals qualified to become Board members, and will solicit input on director candidates from a variety of sources, including current directors. The Committee will evaluate a candidate’s qualifications and review all proposed nominees for the Board, including those proposed by stockholders, in accordance with its charter and our Corporate Governance Guidelines. This will include a review of the person’s qualifications and independence as well as consideration of diversity, age, skills, education and experience in the context of the needs of the Board. The Committee has the ability to retain a third party to assist in the nomination process.
Director nominees recommended by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are expected to be committed to representing the long-term interests of our stockholders. The Committee believes that it is important to align the interests of directors with those of our stockholders. Generally, each non-employee director is required to acquire a number of shares of our common stock in an amount that, at cost, is equal to the amount of the director’s annual retainer in effect on the date when the director first becomes a member of the Board. Non-employee directors must meet this requirement by the third anniversary of that date unless, due to employment or legal restrictions, he or she is unable to acquire our common stock. As of January 31, 2025, all non-employee directors were in compliance with this requirement. Board members should possess a high degree of integrity and have broad knowledge, experience and mature judgment. In addition to a meaningful economic commitment to our company as expressed in share ownership, directors and nominees should have predominately business backgrounds, have experience at policy-making levels in business and/or technology, and bring a diverse set of business and life experiences and perspectives to the Board.
Mr. McLean’s employment letter with the Company provides for his appointment to the Board and provides that while he is Chief Executive Officer, he will be nominated for reelection to the Board each time his term as director is scheduled to expire. In addition, under his executive severance agreement with the Company, a termination of employment by Mr. McLean is for “Good Reason” if, among other events, at any time that ESL Investments, Inc. and its affiliate entities beneficially own more than 20% of the Company’s shares entitled to vote for directors, they, in whole or in part, vote against his reelection to the Board while Mr. McLean is serving as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer.
A Lands’ End stockholder can nominate a candidate for election to the Board by complying with the nomination procedures in our Bylaws, which provide that for an election to be held at an annual meeting of

stockholders, nomination by a stockholder must be made by notice in writing delivered to the Company not later than the 90 th day, and not earlier than the 120 th day, prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting.

The Company may require any proposed nominee to furnish such other information as the Company may reasonably require to determine the eligibility of the nominee to serve as a director, including a written questionnaire with respect to the background and qualifications of such nominee. The chair of any annual meeting or special meeting of stockholders may refuse to acknowledge the nomination of any person not made in compliance with the foregoing procedures. In addition to satisfying the foregoing requirements under the Company’s Bylaws, to comply with the universal proxy rules, stockholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than Lands’ End’s nominees must provide notice that sets forth the information required by Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act no later than March 22, 2026, and must provide reasonable evidence that they have complied with the requirements of Rule 14a-19 of the Exchange Act. Any decision to include information regarding a proposed nominee in the Company’s proxy solicitation materials will be made in accordance with the Company’s Bylaws and applicable law.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Compensation Discussion and Analysis
Introduction
This Compensation Discussion and Analysis provides information to assist you in understanding the fiscal year 2024 compensation of the executive officers identified in the Summary Compensation Table, whom we refer to as our “named executive officers.” Our named executive officers for fiscal year 2024 are:
•
Andrew J. McLean, Chief Executive Officer
​
•
Bernard McCracken, Chief Financial Officer
​
•
Peter L. Gray, President, Lands’ End Licensing, Chief Administrative Officer and General Counsel
​
•
Martin Christopher, Executive Vice President, Chief Technology Officer
​
•
Angela Rieger, Executive Vice President, Chief Transformation Officer
​
Mr. Christopher became an executive officer in May 2024. Ms. Rieger will be retiring from the Company effective April 15, 2025.
Executive Summary
Fiscal year 2024 was a year of development and growth for Lands’ End with the implementation and execution of core strategies designed to drive a more profitable business. For the full fiscal year, we delivered Gross Merchandise Value growth of low single digits, gross margin improvement of 550 basis points to 47.9%, and Adjusted EBITDA of $93 million, a year-over-year increase of 10%.
Our financial results reflected our ongoing efforts to drive improved profitability, generate elevated brand awareness through enhanced marketing strategies, and provide our customers with innovative solutions for life’s every journey. We grew our profitability and achieved inventory efficiencies each quarter and benefited from our go-to-market strategy designed for more focused promotions around key holidays and commercial moments to maximize their impact. We made great strides in further building our brand and positioning Lands’ End to succeed going forward. We sought to take greater share of the organic conversation on social media and increase our cultural relevancy, evidenced by the doubling of the number of our Instagram followers and a 5% increase in new customer acquisition in fiscal 2024.
Based on our performance relative to adjusted EBITDA and inventory goals, our annual incentive plan for fiscal year 2024 paid out at 70% of target. Our long-term performance-based awards for the fiscal 2022 through 2024 period yielded no payout, and those awards expired without vesting.
Our corporate culture benefited from a consistent presence of employees at the office over the course of fiscal year 2024, as senior management (Vice President and above) and most other corporate staff continued to work in person three weeks every month. We believe that our office-first hybrid model, which focuses on significant and consistent office presence, reinforces our commitment to culture, collaboration and innovation, while allowing employee flexibility.
Executive Compensation Philosophy and Objectives
The Compensation Committee believes that our long-term success is directly related to our ability to attract, motivate and retain highly talented executives who are committed to our mission, results and cultural beliefs. The Compensation Committee has developed a compensation philosophy for our senior executives designed to pay-for-performance. Accordingly, the total compensation packages provided to our named executive officers generally include both annual and long-term incentive opportunities that are linked to performance measures or are otherwise “at risk” due to Lands’ End stock price fluctuations and potential for forfeiture. For fiscal year 2024 approximately 77% of our CEO’s target compensation was considered at risk, and approximately 65% of our other named executive officers’ target compensation was considered at risk based on financial and stock performance measures or the possibility of forfeiture.

​ |  | ​ | ​ |  | ​

Our compensation packages are designed in large measure to motivate and encourage executives to drive performance and achieve superior results for the Company and its stockholders. They also reflect other important considerations, such as the value of the position in the marketplace, levels of job responsibility, individual performance and the need to attract and retain top executive talent. The Compensation Committee grants equity-based incentives to align management’s interests with stockholders’ interests. While the Compensation Committee seeks to utilize compensation and benefit arrangements that reflect the pay-for-performance compensation philosophy, it recognizes that from time to time it may be appropriate for the Company to provide additional inducements, such as sign-on awards, spot bonuses and other provisions, to recruit, retain, reward and motivate highly qualified executives. No such additional inducements were utilized for any of the named executive officers in fiscal year 2024. Compensation agreements are discussed in “Employment Arrangements” below.
Executive Compensation Program: Key Elements
The key elements of our compensation program for our executives include base salary, annual cash incentive opportunities, long-term performance-based incentive opportunities and long-term time-based equity awards.
Annual Compensation
•
Base Salary— Base salary is the fixed element of each executive’s cash compensation, and provides executives with an appropriate level of financial certainty.
​
•
Annual Incentive Plan— Our annual incentive program seeks to motivate executives by providing opportunities to earn annual cash awards that are at risk and based on achievement of annual financial objectives established by the Compensation Committee.
​
Long-Term Compensation
•
Long-Term Performance-Based Awards— Our long-term incentive programs are designed to motivate executives to focus on long-term Company performance through awards that are at risk and based on multi-year performance periods, and to reinforce accountability by linking executive compensation to achievement of performance goals. These programs seek to align our executives’ compensation with our strategic direction and initiatives, which the Compensation Committee believes will result in increased returns to our stockholders. These awards have taken the form of either equity or cash in the past several years.
​
•
Long-Term Time-Based Awards— Our long-term incentive programs also include time-based awards of equity that are at risk. The multi-year vesting requirements of time-based awards are designed to promote retention and encourage executive officers to adopt longer-term approaches to our business. Time-based equity compensation also provides alignment with our stockholders, as value received will be consistent with return to our stockholders.
​

TABLE OF CONTENTS
There is no pre-established policy or target for the allocation between annual and long-term incentive compensation. Instead, the Compensation Committee takes a holistic approach to executive compensation and the balance of the compensation elements for each executive individually. For fiscal year 2024, approximately 45% of our CEO’s target compensation and approximately 62% of our other named executive officers’ target compensation was annual in nature, while approximately 55% of our CEO’s target compensation and approximately 38% of our other named executive officers’ target compensation was long-term in nature. Additionally, 60% of our CEO’s and other named executive officers’ long-term compensation was delivered in performance-based awards.

How Elements Are Used to Achieve Our Compensation Objectives
The Compensation Committee believes that a fair and effective way to motivate executives to produce superior results for stockholders is to increase the proportion of an executive’s total compensation that is performance-based or otherwise “at risk”, including equity compensation, relative to the executive’s ability to influence those results. Additionally, the Compensation Committee believes that the value of incentive compensation should depend upon the performance of the Company in a specified performance or vesting period. Under our incentive compensation structure, the highest amount of compensation can be achieved through consistent superior performance over successive periods. This approach is designed to provide incentives for managing long-term growth, while minimizing short-term excessive risk-taking.
During fiscal year 2024, the Compensation Committee sought to achieve the objectives of our compensation program for our named executive officers through the grant of annual and long-term incentive awards. The fiscal year 2024 annual incentive awards for the named executive officers offered an opportunity to earn cash compensation based upon achievement of fiscal year 2024 adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization), net of an inventory charge. The goal-setting process is discussed below in “Fiscal Year 2024 Annual Incentive Opportunity”. The Compensation Committee also granted long-term time-based equity awards in fiscal year 2024, that will vest over a three-year period, assuming continued service. Further, in fiscal year 2024 the Compensation Committee granted two different long-term performance-based equity awards: (i) financial performance awards which vest 50% based on achievement of net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA ratio (measured at the end of the three-year period) and 50% based on average return on investment capital (“ROIC”) for the three-year period of fiscal 2024 through fiscal 2026; and (ii) stock performance awards which vest based on Company common stock achieving a specified average per share closing stock price over 20 consecutive trading days during the performance period from date of grant through the end of fiscal 2026, and in each case subject to continued service. We believe the metrics we use in our annual and long-term incentive program — adjusted EBITDA, net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA ratio, ROIC and stock price performance — are key drivers of long-term, sustained stockholder value.
Our target Annual Incentive Plan (As Amended and Restated) (“AIP”) awards and our long-term incentives are established based on a percentage of base salary. As the participating executive’s base salary is determined, in part, on their past performance, an award opportunity that is based on a multiple of that base salary also reflects, in part, their past performance.
19

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Following the end of a performance period, the Compensation Committee certifies the level of achievement against the applicable financial and stock performance goals established under the annual and long-term performance-based incentive programs, but retains the ability to exercise positive or negative discretion to adjust payout in relation to our annual and long-term performance.
Fiscal Year 2024 Base Salaries
Base salaries are established at levels that generally reflect the past performance, experience, expected future contributions and responsibilities of the executive officer. The importance of the executive officer’s position, external pay data, market competitiveness and internal pay equity also are considered, as well as the extent of any promotions or other change in the executive’s responsibilities.
The following table sets forth the base salary as of 2024 fiscal year end for each of the named executive officers, and their 2023 fiscal year end base salary:

Name | ​ | ​ | FY2023 Base Salary | ​ | ​ | FY2024 Base Salary | ​ | ​ | % Increase | ​
Andrew J. McLean | ​ | ​ | ​ | $ | 1,050,000 | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | $ | 1,050,000 | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | — | ​ | ​
Bernard McCracken | ​ | ​ | ​ | $ | 525,000 | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | $ | 525,000 | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | — | ​ | ​
Peter L. Gray | ​ | ​ | ​ | $ | 675,000 | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | $ | 695,250 | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 3% | ​ | ​
Martin Christopher | ​ | ​ | ​ | $ | 525,000 | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | $ | 525,000 | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | — | ​ | ​
Angela Rieger | ​ | ​ | ​ | $ | 500,000 | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | $ | 500,000 | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | — | ​ | ​

The named executive officers’ base salaries were each set based on a combination of factors considered by Mr. McLean in recommending the base salaries of the named executives (other than Mr. McLean, whose base salary was determined solely by the Compensation Committee), and by the Compensation Committee in approving all of the base salaries (including Mr. McLean’s), including an assessment of individual achievements, contributions to the performance of the Company, changes in responsibilities, and peer group, general industry and survey comparisons. Mr. McCracken’s salary was set in connection with his appointment as Chief Financial Officer on September 14, 2023, Ms. Rieger’s salary was increased to $500,000 effective January 22, 2024 and Mr. Christopher’s salary was set at $525,000 starting February 3, 2024, upon commencing employment.
Fiscal Year 2024 Performance Measures and Goals
As we rely upon “at risk” compensation to motivate our executives, in addition to time-based equity awards, in 2024 we utilized two forms of performance-based awards: awards based on goals set for fiscal year 2024 under the AIP (“2024 AIP”) and performance-based equity awards as described below.
Under the 2024 AIP, we used an adjusted EBITDA measure (see discussion of this measure, and how it differs from reported Adjusted EBITDA below, in “Fiscal year 2024 Annual Incentive Opportunity”) modified by an inventory charge. The adjusted EBITDA net of inventory charge targets were established in March 2024. When establishing the performance goals for the 2024 AIP the Compensation Committee considered such factors as fiscal year 2023 financial results, overall fiscal year 2024 financial goals, our long-range plan, our competitive position, the impact of inventory management on Company results, and market trends, as well as the general state of the economy and our business.
The 2024 long-term performance-based equity awards were also established by the Compensation Committee in March 2024 after considering the factors cited above. For 2024, there were two unique long-term performance-based equity awards, each with distinct performance measures: (i) awards with performance goals 50% based on a net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA ratio at the end of the three-year period, and 50% based on average ROIC for the three-year period from fiscal year 2024 through fiscal year 2026; and (ii) awards with performance goals based on achievement of sustained Company stock price goals over 20 consecutive trading days during the performance period from grant date through the end of fiscal year 2026.
Fiscal Year 2024 Annual Incentive Opportunity
For the 2024 AIP, the Compensation Committee approved an adjusted EBITDA performance measure (“2024 AIP EBITDA”) net of inventory charge, which accounted for 100% of the annual incentive opportunity
20

TABLE OF CONTENTS
for our named executive officers. The 2024 AIP EBITDA measure differs from “Adjusted EBITDA” which is a key metric reported by the Company. Adjusted EBITDA is used by management to measure business performance, in an effort to encourage growth and create increased stockholder value through the efficient use of corporate assets. For purposes of the 2024 AIP, reported Adjusted EBITDA results are subject to further adjustment as detailed below (see Item 7 Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for a reconciliation of Net Income to Adjusted EBITDA).
Given the business conditions present at the end of fiscal year 2023 and the beginning of fiscal year 2024, and in light of the Company’s financial performance in fiscal year 2023, the Compensation Committee deemed it essential that the opportunity to earn incentive compensation under the 2024 AIP be balanced with the need of the Company to maintain inventory efficiency. Accordingly, in adopting the 2024 AIP, the Compensation Committee provided for an inventory charge adjustment to 2024 AIP EBITDA under the 2024 AIP based on an expected level of inventory and the Company’s weighted average cost of capital.
To determine 2024 AIP EBITDA performance, we first calculate Adjusted EBITDA, computed as operating income (loss) appearing on our statement of operations for the applicable reporting period, adjusted for depreciation, amortization, gains/(losses) on sales of assets and other items we determine affect the comparability of financial results from period to period. Then, in determining financial goal achievement relative to the 2024 AIP EBITDA measure, the Compensation Committee is required to adjust either the performance target or actual Adjusted EBITDA results to reflect the following occurrences affecting our results during the performance period:
•
the effects of currency fluctuations in comparison to plan currency rates;
​
•
gains or losses from litigation, claim judgments, or regulatory proceedings, including product recalls or legal and insurance settlements that, in each case, individually exceed $500,000;
​
•
the effect of changes in laws, regulations, or accounting principles, methods or estimates;
​
•
write down or impairment of assets;
​
•
the gain or loss from the sale or discontinuance of a business segment, division, unit or product group, and the planned, unrealized corporate post-incentive adjusted EBITDA for this business segment, division, unit or product group;
​
•
results from an unplanned acquired business and costs related to the unplanned acquisition;
​
•
restructuring and workforce severance costs pursuant to a plan approved by the Board and Chief Executive Officer;
​
•
the impact of the unplanned termination or loss of store leases;
​
•
unusual and infrequently occurring items as defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP); and
​
•
Changes in inventory due to acquisition or sale or discontinuance of a business segment, division, unit or product group.
​
For 2024 AIP, Adjusted EBITDA is then further subject to adjustment based on the inventory charge described above.
Opportunities under the AIP for the participating executives are generally established upon hire and reviewed when the Compensation Committee reviews annual compensation or at the time a compensation package for a participating executive is otherwise approved, and reflects the participating executive’s relative level of responsibility and potential to affect our overall performance. The target award opportunity under the 2024 AIP was consistent with past practice and was set at 100% of base salary for Mr. McLean, and 75% of base salary for the other named executive officers. Threshold, target and maximum levels for annual performance under the 2024 AIP were established in March 2024.
For the annual measure, as discussed above, performance levels were set at: threshold for performance at 16% below target 2024 AIP EBITDA net of the inventory charge for fiscal year 2024, and maximum for
21

TABLE OF CONTENTS
performance was set at 28% above target 2024 AIP EBITDA net of inventory charge. The following table summarizes the plan design, metric, and performance levels:

Metric | ​ | ​ | Threshold (50% payout) | ​ | ​ | Target (100% payout) | ​ | ​ | Maximum (200% payout) | ​
2024 AIP EBITDA Net of Inventory Charge | ​ | ​ | $60 million | ​ | ​ | $71 million | ​ | ​ | $91 million | ​

The Compensation Committee views Adjusted EBITDA growth and inventory management as key metrics and drivers of stockholder value. As designed, the 2024 AIP would result in a 50% payout for threshold performance. The payout percentage calculation between each of threshold and target payout and between target and maximum payout are based on straight-line (linear) interpolation. Falling short of the threshold would result in no payout.
At the time it set the targets, the Compensation Committee believed that performance at the target level was attainable, yet challenging, given multiple factors, including consumer confidence and preferences, as well as a focus on and success of increased introductions of newness in the Company’s product offerings.
We achieved 2024 AIP EBITDA net of inventory charge above the threshold performance level and below the target performance level. These results yielded a payout of 70% of target for the named executive officers and other AIP participants, and payout amounts are set forth below.

Name | ​ | ​ | Target Incentive for fiscal year 2024 | ​ | ​ | Annual Incentive Earned and Paid for fiscal year 2024 | ​

Fiscal Year 2024 Long-Term Compensation Opportunities
2024 Long-Term Incentive Structure: 2024 PSU Awards and 2024 RSU Awards
For fiscal year 2024, our long-term incentive (“LTI”) structure had three components: (i) awards of financial performance-based restricted stock units (each, a “Financial PSU” and the awards, the “2024 Financial PSU Awards”), weighted 40% of the total LTI value; (ii) awards of stock performance-based restricted stock units (each, a “Stock Price PSU” and the awards, the “2024 Stock Price PSU Awards”; the Financial PSUs and Stock Price PSUs are each a “PSU Award” and 2024 Financial PSU Awards and the 2024 Stock Price PSU Awards together, the “2024 PSU Awards”), weighted 20% of the total LTI value; and (iii) awards of time-based restricted stock units (each, an “RSU” and the awards, the “2024 RSU Awards”), weighted 40% of the total LTI value. 2024 PSU Awards and 2024 RSU Awards were all issued under the Lands’ End, Inc. Amended and Restated 2017 Stock Plan (the “2017 Stock Plan”).
Each of the named executive officers has a target value for long-term incentive. For Mr. McLean the 2024 fiscal year target incentive was $2,520,000 and for Mr. McCracken, Mr. Gray, Mr. Christopher and Ms. Rieger the target incentive was set at 110% of base salary.
2024 Financial PSU Awards
The 2024 Financial PSU Awards are intended to focus the named executive officers on our long-term performance and align their interests with those of our stockholders. Each Financial PSU represents a contingent right to receive one share of our common stock upon satisfaction of the following vesting conditions: a net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA ratio (“2024 Financial PSU EBITDA Ratio”) (50% weighting) at the end of the three year period, and average ROIC (50% weighting) for the period comprised of fiscal years 2024 through 2026, and continued service. The 2024 Financial PSU Awards will vest, if at all, when the Compensation Committee determines whether a requisite level of performance has been achieved. The
22

TABLE OF CONTENTS
determination will take place after the conclusion of the third year of the performance period. Each named executive officer may earn a number of Financial PSUs and be issued the related number of shares, based on the Company’s performance relative to the net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA ratio and average ROIC goals. All goals were set in March 2024. All grants under the 2017 Stock Plan, including the 2024 Financial PSUs and any other grants to an individual in the same fiscal year, are subject to the limitations of the 2017 Stock Plan, including Section 7.1(b) which imposes a per participant limit.
The number of shares for the 2024 Financial PSU Awards at target level of performance to each of the named executive officers, representing 40% of their LTI value on April 1, 2024 (calculated using a value per share of $11.31, the closing price of Company common stock on the date of the award), and the grant date fair value of the award (calculated using a value per share of $11.31, the award date closing price), are each set forth on the table below:

Name | ​ | ​ | Number of Shares underlying 2024 Financial PSU Award at Target Performance (“2024 Financial PSU Target Shares”) | ​ | ​ | Grant Date Fair Value | ​
Andrew J. McLean | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 89,124 | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | $ | 1,007,992 | ​ | ​
Bernard McCracken | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 20,424 | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | $ | 230,995 | ​ | ​
Peter L. Gray | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 26,259 | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | $ | 296,989 | ​ | ​
Martin Christopher | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 20,424 | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | $ | 230,995 | ​ | ​
Angela Rieger | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 19,451 | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | $ | 219,991 | ​ | ​

The definition of adjusted EBITDA used for calculating 2024 Financial PSU EBITDA Ratio is substantially the same as the definition of 2024 AIP EBITDA (as indicated above), but is not subject to adjustment for changes in inventory. Net Debt is defined as debt obligations (long and short term) less cash. ROIC is net operating profit after tax (NOPAT)/(Term Loan Debt (Short and Long) + Total Stockholder Equity). Under the 2024 Financial PSU Awards, a threshold level of performance for a goal will generate a payout calculation of 50% of 2024 Financial PSU Target Shares, a target level of performance will generate a payout calculation of 100% of 2024 Financial PSU Target Shares and a maximum level of performance will result in a payout calculation of 200% of 2024 Financial PSU Target Shares. The payout percentage calculation between each of threshold and target payout and between target and maximum payout are based on straight-line (linear) interpolation. Each metric is considered independently, and payout for that metric will be weighted according to the weighting associated with the metric.
A summary of the plan design for the 2024 Financial PSU Awards is set forth below:

Metric (three-year performance) | ​ | ​ | Weighting | ​ | ​ | Payout at Threshold (50% of Target) | ​ | ​ | Payout at Target (100% of Target) | ​ | ​ | Payout at Maximum (200% of Target) | ​
2024 Financial PSU EBITDA Ratio | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 50% | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 50% | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 100% | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 200% | ​ | ​
Average ROIC | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 50% | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 50% | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 100% | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 200% | ​ | ​

2024 Stock Price PSU Awards
The 2024 Stock Price PSU Awards are intended to focus the named executive officers on our long-term performance and align their interests with those of our stockholders. Each Stock Price PSU represents a contingent right to receive one share of our common stock upon satisfaction of Company stock performance criteria, subject to certification of performance following fiscal year 2026 and continued service. The performance rights vest up to 100% of the listed target number of shares upon Company common stock achieving a specified average per share closing stock price, measured over any 20 consecutive trading-day period during the performance period beginning on the date of grant and continuing through the end of fiscal 2026, and subject to the satisfaction of other vesting conditions, including continued service to the Company through the payment date. Under the 2024 Stock Price PSU Awards, a threshold level of performance for a goal will generate a payout calculation of 33% of 2024 Stock Price PSU Target Shares, a target level of

performance will generate a payout calculation of 100% of 2024 Stock Price PSU Target Shares. Target level performance is the maximum level of performance. The payout percentage calculation between the threshold and target payout is based on straight-line (linear) interpolation. The performance goals were set in March 2024.
The number of shares for the 2024 Stock Price PSU Awards at target level of performance to each of the named executive officers, representing 20% of their LTI value on April 1, 2024 (calculated using a value per share of $11.31, the closing price of Company common stock on the date of the award), and the grant date fair value of the award (calculated using a value per share of $8.29, the award date closing price as adjusted using a Monte Carlo simulation, described in Note 5. Stock-Based Compensation in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025), are each set forth on the table below:

Name | ​ | ​ | Number of Shares underlying 2024 Stock Price PSU Award at Target Performance | ​ | ​ | Grant Date Fair Value | ​
Andrew J. McLean | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 44,562 | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | $ | 369,419 | ​ | ​

2024 RSU Awards
The 2024 RSU Awards are intended to focus the named executive officers on our long-term performance, promote retention and align their interests with those of our stockholders. Each RSU represents a contingent right to receive one share of our common stock upon satisfaction of the vesting conditions. The 2024 RSU Awards will vest, subject to satisfaction of vesting conditions, including continued service, on the first, second and third anniversaries of the award date (with respect to 25%, 25% and 50% of the 2024 RSU Awards), which was April 1, 2024.
The number of shares for awards was determined by dividing the intended value (in case of the 2024 RSU Awards, 40% of the executive’s LTI value) by the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant, $11.31. Accordingly, the number of shares for the 2024 RSU Awards made to each of the named executive officers, and the grant date fair value of the award (based on such closing price), was as set forth on the table below:

Name | ​ | ​ | Number of Shares underlying 2024 RSU Award | ​ | ​ | Grant Date Fair Value | ​
Andrew J. McLean | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 89,124 | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | $ | 1,007,992 | ​ | ​
Bernard McCracken | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 20,424 | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | $ | 230,995 | ​ | ​

Prior Performance-Based Awards Providing Fiscal Year 2024 Compensation Opportunity
2022 PSU Awards
In fiscal year 2022, our LTI included Awards of PSUs under the 2017 Stock Plan (the “2022 PSU Awards”) which represented the right to receive shares of the Company’s common stock (the “2022 Target Shares”) upon the satisfaction of a consolidated adjusted EBITDA measure (“2022 PSU EBITDA”), weighted 75% and revenue, weighted 25%, each based on the cumulative three-year period, comprised of fiscal years 2022 through 2024 and subject to continued employment. Both performance goals were established in February 2022 and were not adjusted for any other factors.
24

TABLE OF CONTENTS
The definition of 2022 PSU EBITDA was substantially the same as the definition of 2024 AIP EBITDA (as discussed above). Revenue for the purposes of the 2022 PSU Awards, was revenue, as determined by GAAP. Under the 2022 PSU Awards, a threshold level of performance would have resulted in vesting of 50% of the 2022 Target Shares, a target level of performance would have resulted in vesting at 100% of the 2022 Target Shares, and the maximum opportunity would have resulted in vesting of 200% of the 2022 Target Shares. Any payout percentage between each of threshold and target payout and between target and maximum payout would be based on straight-line (linear) interpolation. Each metric was considered independently, and payout for that metric was weighted according to the weighting associated with the metric. A table summarizing the plan design for the 2022 PSU Awards is set forth below:

Metric (cumulative three-year performance) | ​ | ​ | Weighting | ​ | ​ | Threshold (50% payout) | ​ | ​ | Target (100% payout) | ​ | ​ | Maximum (200%) | ​
2022 PSU EBITDA | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 75% | ​ | ​ | ​ | $370 million | ​ | ​ | $430 million | ​ | ​ | $525 million | ​
Revenue | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | 25% | ​ | ​ | ​ | $5.4 billion | ​ | ​ | $5.8 billion | ​ | ​ | $6.3 billion | ​

Actual results for the cumulative performance period, calculated in accordance with the 2022 PSU Awards and as certified by the Compensation Committee on March 27, 2025 were 2022 PSU EBITDA of $247.4 million and Revenue of $4.517 billion. As these results were both below the threshold set under the 2022 PSU Awards, no 2022 PSUs were earned and the awards expired unvested.
Other Compensation Elements
Perquisites and Other Personal Benefits
We provide our named executive officers with certain limited perquisites and other personal benefits that the Compensation Committee deems reasonable and consistent with our overall compensation program or necessary to achieve certain executive hire and retention objectives. For fiscal year 2024, these perquisites included the opportunity for each named executive officer to receive an annual physical examination at our expense, which is intended to promote proactive management of executive health, and the opportunity to receive the same discounts on Lands’ End merchandise that are extended to all Lands’ End employees.
Retirement Plan
The Lands’ End, Inc. Retirement Plan (the “Retirement Plan”) allows all participants to contribute towards retirement with Roth and pre-tax contributions of up to 75% of eligible compensation, in addition, qualifying participants can make catch-up contributions (all contributions are subject to limits determined by the Internal Revenue Service). We also make matching contributions to the Retirement Plan in an amount equal to 50% of the participant’s first 6% of contributions, starting the first of the month following one year of service by the participant.
Severance Benefits
We provide severance benefits to our named executive officers pursuant to executive severance agreements each has entered into with Lands’ End. The executive severance agreements help us attract and retain executives in a talent marketplace where severance provisions are commonly offered, while protecting our interests through post-employment non-disclosure, non-solicitation and non-competition restrictions. Under the executive severance agreements, subject to the executive’s execution of a release of claims against the Company and its affiliates, severance benefits are provided for involuntary termination by Lands’ End without “Cause” ​(as defined in each executive’s agreement) or termination by the executive officer for “Good Reason” ​(as defined in each executive’s agreement). See “— Potential Payments upon Termination of Employment” below for additional details on the terms, conditions and benefits received under a qualifying termination under the executive severance agreements.
Awards under an annual or a long-term incentive program are payable to a certain extent in the event of a termination of employment as a result of death or disability during a performance period if certain conditions are met. See “— Potential Payments upon Termination of Employment” below for additional information.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Under the 2017 Stock Plan, following a Change in Control (as defined in the 2017 Stock Plan) involving the Company, any non-vested portion of a participant’s award will vest, with performance awards vesting at target , in the event that either (1) the surviving, continuing, successor, or purchasing entity fails to assume or continue our rights and obligations under such award or fails to provide the participant with a substantially equivalent award, or (2) the participant’s employment is terminated within 18 months following the Change in Control on account of a termination by the Company (or any acquiring entity) for any reason other than Cause or on account of a participant’s resignation for Good Reason (each as defined in the 2017 Stock Plan). This type of treatment of equity following a Change in Control is referred to as a “double trigger” change-in-control provision and is intended to provide the participant with reasonable assurance regarding previously awarded compensation in the event of a Change in Control and subsequent termination of employment.
Our Competitive Pay Practices
The Committee believes that, in order to retain valuable executives and attract qualified candidates, we must offer executive compensation arrangements that include components that are set at levels that candidates would view favorably when considering alternative employment opportunities. In making compensation decisions, we take many factors into account, including competitive considerations; the responsibilities, impact and importance of the individual’s position within the Company; individual performance; the individual’s expected future contributions to the Company; the individual’s historical compensation; the performance of the Company overall; retention risk; experience; internal pay equity; and the effect on our general and administrative expenses. The Committee also takes into account compensation and market data, which data primarily focuses on apparel retail companies and other related industries.
In connection with the actions taken by the Compensation Committee in fiscal year 2024, for the named executive officers, the Compensation Committee reviewed publicly available compensation data of a peer group of companies that was determined with assistance from Frederic W. Cook & Co., Inc. (“FW Cook”), the Compensation Committee’s independent compensation consultant. While the Compensation Committee does not seek to establish any specific element of compensation or total compensation at or within a prescribed range relative to its peer group of companies, it generally considers compensation arrangements to be competitive if they fall within a range of 15% above or below a market median.
The Committee typically reviews the composition of its peer group annually, prior to compensation determinations. The Committee believes that limited year-over-year change allows the Company to use a peer group that provides familiar market information and facilitates managing compensation levels and program design on a multi-year basis.
Following a peer group review that was undertaken in September 2023, and at the recommendation of FW Cook, the Peer Group for fiscal year 2024 remained consistent with the prior peer group used by the Company.
In making its fiscal year 2024 compensation decisions, the Compensation Committee considered compensation data from the 19 peer companies set forth below (the “Peer Group”), comprised primarily of apparel retail companies and those in related industries. In comparing the relative size of the Company to the peer group median, our revenue was between the 25 th percentile and the median and market capitalization was at approximately the 25th percentile.

At our 2024 annual meeting of stockholders, approximately 99% of the votes cast supported our advisory resolution on the compensation of our executive officers named in the proxy statement for the meeting. The Compensation Committee reviewed these results and viewed them as an indicator of stockholder support for the compensation program and did not make any changes to the compensation program design for fiscal year 2024 in response to the stockholder vote outcome.
Stock Ownership Guidelines
As equity compensation is an important part of our compensation philosophy, the Compensation Committee has established stock ownership guidelines, which require our senior executives to accumulate and hold a meaningful level of Lands’ End stock, to establish commonality of interest with stockholders and align with good governance practices. The guidelines provide for the Chief Executive Officer to hold an amount of stock equal in value to four times base salary, Executive Vice President level employees to hold an amount of stock equal in value to two times base salary, and Senior Vice President level employees to hold an amount of stock equal in value to one times base salary. There is no prescribed time frame by which to accumulate the stock, however, until the guideline is met, executives are required to retain 50% of net after-tax shares realized upon the vesting of equity awards. Directly and indirectly beneficially owned shares are counted toward meeting the requirement. Any unvested or unearned restricted stock units and unexercised stock options are not counted toward meeting the requirement.
Compensation Risk Assessment
We conduct an annual compensation risk assessment, and have concluded that our compensation policies and practices were not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us or our business. In reaching this determination, we reviewed our compensation plans, the types of awards, the risks associated with the plan designs and opportunity for metric manipulation. Factor mitigating risks identified, included:
•
appropriate target pay philosophy, peer group and market positioning to support business objectives;
​
•
effective balance in salary and variable compensation, shorter- and longer-term performance focus and use of both cash and equity;
​
•
effective Compensation Committee oversight and ability to use discretion to reduce incentives earned;
​
•
appropriate incentive performance/payout curves, with goals that can be attained without taking inappropriate risks of deviating from normal operations or approved strategies;
​
•
caps on incentive pay opportunities;
​
•
meaningful stock ownership guidelines;
​
•
clawback, anti-hedging and anti-pledging policies; and
​
•
appropriate and market competitive severance provisions.
​
Clawback Policy and Executive Compensation Recovery Provisions
We have adopted and maintain a Clawback Policy that applies to all employees at the Senior Vice President level and above. Per the policy, erroneously paid incentive-based compensation made to executives on or after October 2, 2023 is subject to recovery by the Company, in the event of an error relating to certain accounting restatements. If there is a restatement, and under the restated results, incentive-based compensation that was previously paid, otherwise would not have been paid (i.e. because performance goals, as restated, were not met), then the excess amounts paid in error are subject to recovery by the Company. In accordance with the policy, Lands’ End may not indemnify or reimburse any clawback amounts, and executives have acknowledged waiver of indemnification rights in connection with any clawback. Our AIP,
27

TABLE OF CONTENTS
the Long-Term Incentive Program (as Amended and Restated), the 2014 Stock Plan (as Amended and Restated) and the 2017 Stock Plan also contain executive compensation recovery provisions and permit reimbursement from participating executives, to the extent required by the policy and as permitted by applicable law.
Accounting Treatment and Deductibility of Executive Compensation
In reviewing our compensation programs, the Compensation Committee considers both the accounting treatment and the tax deductibility of compensation. However, in order to attract, retain, and motivate senior executives it is likely that we will pay compensation that is not tax deductible or may create an adverse accounting charge. Our Compensation Committee will continue to structure our compensation program in the best long-term interests of our stockholders, with the accounting treatment and the tax deductibility of compensation being among a variety of considerations taken into account.
Compensation Committee Role in Executive Compensation Decisions
The Compensation Committee is appointed by the Board to fulfill the Board’s responsibilities relating to the compensation of our Chief Executive Officer and our other senior executives reporting to the CEO, and equity awards for other Section 16 officers. The Compensation Committee has overall responsibility for approving and evaluating all compensation plans and our policies and programs as they affect our senior executives. For additional information regarding the role of our Compensation Committee, see “Corporate Governance — Committees of the Board — Compensation Committee.” In fulfilling its responsibilities, the Compensation Committee may retain compensation consultants to assist in structuring and evaluating executive compensation. The Compensation Committee has the sole authority to retain and terminate all compensation consultants and has the sole authority to approve the consultant’s fees and the terms and conditions of the consultant’s retention. The Compensation Committee also has authority to obtain advice and assistance from internal and external legal, accounting, and other advisors.
Role of Consultants, Advisors, and Management in Executive Compensation Decisions
The Compensation Committee has retained FW Cook as its independent compensation consultant. FW Cook assists the Compensation Committee and works on its behalf on matters related to the Compensation Committee’s purposes and responsibilities as set forth in the Compensation Committee Charter. FW Cook periodically advises the Compensation Committee as to trends in executive compensation and also provides specialized studies or advice as requested with respect to executive compensation issues. In fiscal year 2024, FW Cook provided an update of compensation trends and regulatory developments, analyzed our use of various compensation elements, provided assistance with the review and design of our incentive compensation programs, assessed the competitiveness of our executive compensation levels, and assisted with the preparation of our public filings with regard to executive compensation. Representatives of FW Cook attend Compensation Committee meetings in person or virtually as requested, and during fiscal year 2024, regularly attended Compensation Committee meetings.
The Compensation Committee assessed the independence of FW Cook, including reviewing information received from FW Cook that addressed factors relevant to SEC and the Nasdaq Stock Market listing rules regarding conflicts of interest and independence and considers FW Cook to be independent under the applicable standards.
The Compensation Committee also received advice and considered the recommendations of Mr. McLean in fiscal year 2024 regarding the forms and the amounts of compensation for our employees, including the other named executive officers, and of Mr. McCracken, Mr. Gray and our Chief Human Resources Officer, regarding our compensation programs generally. No member of management was present during any Compensation Committee deliberations or voting with respect to their specific compensation.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
During fiscal year 2024, none of the members of the Compensation Committee was or is a current or former officer or employee of the Company. No executive officer of the Company served or serves on the compensation committee (or other board committee performing equivalent functions) or on the board of directors of any company that employed or employs any member of the Compensation Committee or any entity that has or has had one or more executive officers who served on our Board during fiscal year 2024.
Summary Compensation Table
The following table sets forth information concerning the total compensation paid to our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer during fiscal year 2024 and our other executive officers for fiscal year 2024 who were executive officers at the end of the fiscal year (collectively, the “named executive officers”). Fiscal year 2023 included 53 weeks, and accordingly all figures reflect amounts that are slightly higher than would have been the case in a 52-week year, on which basis “annual” compensation is determined. Total compensation for the 2022 and 2023 fiscal years is provided only if such person was a named executive officer in either of those years.

The amounts shown in the “Stock Awards” and “Option Awards” columns represent the aggregate grant date fair value of the equity awards, computed in accordance with ASC 718, and not the actual amounts that might be paid to or realized by the named executive officers. The vesting of options awards and restricted stock units is discussed in the footnotes to the “Grants of Plan-Based Awards” and “Outstanding Equity Awards at 2024 Fiscal Year End” tables below. For the 2024 restricted stock units, fair value for the time-based awards and performance-based awards (“Financial PSUs”) is based on the closing price of our common stock on the grant date, April 1, 2024 ($11.31), and fair value for the performance-based awards with stock performance criteria (“Stock Price PSUs”) is calculated at the target payout level as of the grant date and a grant date fair value of $8.29 per share (the award date closing price as adjusted to reflect the estimated value of the Stock Price PSUs; calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation, described in Note 5. Stock-Based Compensation in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025). For fiscal years 2022 and 2023, the stock awards consisted of an equal number of time-based restricted stock units and performance-based restricted stock units, except for Mr. McLean’s fiscal year 2022 stock awards, which were entirely time-based restricted stock units in accordance with the terms of his employment letter. For fiscal year 2024 the stock awards consisted of 40% time-based restricted stock units, 40% Financial PSUs and 20% Stock Price PSUs (such percentages computed based on the closing price on the date of grant). For the 2024 Financial PSUs, the maximum grant date potential values are as follows: Mr. McLean, $2,015,985; Mr. McCracken, $461,991; Mr. Gray, $593,979; Mr. Christopher, $461,991; and Ms. Rieger, $439,982. The fiscal year 2024 Stock Price PSUs target grant date potential value is the same as their maximum grant date potential value.

Fiscal year 2024 and fiscal year 2023 amounts represent incentive payment earned pursuant to our Annual Incentive Plan. Fiscal year 2022 amounts represent incentive payment earned pursuant to the 2020 Long-Term Incentive Program. No payment was made in fiscal year 2022 pursuant to our Annual Incentive Plan.

(a)
Awards under our Annual Incentive Plan, which provided for 50% payout for reaching the threshold, 100% payout for reaching the target and 200% at maximum. Performance yielded a payout at 70% of target and actual cash amounts earned under the plan are included in the “Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation” column of the Summary Compensation Table. See “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” for further discussion of the plan design and performance criteria.
​
(b)
Award of performance-based restricted stock units under the 2017 Stock Plan (“Financial PSUs”).
​
(c)
Award of performance-based restricted stock units with stock performance criteria (“Stock Price PSUs”) under the 2017 Stock Plan.
​
(d)
Awards of time-based restricted stock units under the 2017 Stock Plan.
​
(e)
The amounts shown reflect number of Financial PSUs and Stock Price PSUs which may vest following the conclusion of the applicable performance period, based on the satisfaction of performance criteria established by the Compensation Committee and the recipient maintaining a continuous business relationship with the Company throughout the performance period and on the payment date. For Financial PSUs the threshold achievement represents 50% of target, and maximum achievement represents 200% of target. For Stock Price PSUs the threshold achievement represents 33% of target, and maximum achievement equals 100% of target. Financial PSU or Stock Price PSU performance below the threshold level results in the restricted stock units expiring with no vesting. The restricted

stock units may also vest, to a certain extent, under certain circumstances. See “Potential Payments Upon Termination of Employment” below. See “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” for further discussion of the performance-based restricted stock units and performance criteria.
(f)
Issuances pursuant to each performance-based restricted stock unit award and restricted stock unit award are subject to the terms of the 2017 Stock Plan, including the per participant limit set forth in Section 7.1(b) of the Plan.
​
(g)
Restricted stock units vest as to 25%, 25% and 50% on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the date of grant, provided that the executive maintains a continuous business relationship on each such date, and may also vest, to a certain extent, under certain circumstances. See “— Potential Payments upon Termination of Employment” below.

(h)
The Grant Date Value of Stock Awards represents the aggregate grant date fair value of the equity awards, computed in accordance with ASC 718, and not the actual amounts that might be paid to or realized by the named executive officers. The grant date fair value for each restricted stock unit and each Financial PSU is the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant ($11.31), and the grant date fair value for the Stock Price PSUs is $8.29 per share (the award date closing price as adjusted to reflect the estimated value of the Stock Price PSUs; calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation, described in Note 5. Stock-Based Compensation in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025). For Financial PSUs and Stock Price PSUs, target level is used to compute value.

Potential Payments upon Termination of Employment
As described under “— Compensation Discussion and Analysis — Other Compensation Elements —  Severance Benefits” above, the Company is party to severance agreements with each of the named executive officers. The following is a discussion of the potential compensation and benefits that the named executive officers would be entitled to upon termination of employment. The description of Mr. McCracken’s severance agreement terms reflects the March 11, 2025 Amended and Restated Executive Severance Agreement by and between Mr. McCracken and the Company.
For purposes of the severance agreements (except as noted) the following definitions apply:
Good Reason:
A termination by the executive officer is for “Good Reason” generally if it results from (1) a reduction of more than 10% in the sum of the executive officer’s annual base salary and target AIP award; (2) an executive officer’s mandatory relocation to an office more than 50 miles from the primary location at which the executive officer is required to perform their duties; or (3) any action or inaction that constitutes a material breach under the severance agreement, including the failure of a successor company to assume or fulfill the obligations under the severance agreement. Under Mr. McLean’s, Mr. McCracken’s and Mr. Gray’s agreements, material diminution in their duties also constitutes a Good Reason, and under Mr. McLean’s agreement, a Good Reason further includes (i) no longer being the principal executive officer of the Company and (ii) if at any time that ESL Investments, Inc. and its affiliate entities beneficially own more than twenty percent (20%) of our shares entitled to vote for directors, and they, in whole or in part, vote against Mr. McLean’s reelection to the Board while he is serving as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company.
Cause:
“Cause” generally is defined as (1) a material breach by the executive officer, other than due to incapacity due to a disability, of the executive officer’s duties and responsibilities which breach is demonstrably willful and deliberate on the executive officer’s part, is committed in bad faith or without reasonable belief that such breach is in the best interests of the Company (or its affiliates) and such breach is not remedied by the executive officer in a reasonable period of time after receipt of written notice from the Company specifying such breach; (2) the commission by the executive officer of a felony (in certain cases defined as a felony involving moral turpitude); or (3) dishonesty or willful misconduct in connection with the executive officer’s employment.
Severance Benefits upon Termination without Cause or for Good Reason
Subject to their execution of a release of claims against the Company and its affiliates, if the executive’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause or by the executive for Good Reason, the executive will be entitled to receive, subject to the terms of the applicable agreement, the following: Mr. McLean is entitled to a payment equal to two times the sum of his base salary plus his average bonus paid for the most recent prior two completed fiscal years (“Average Bonus”), paid in installments over 24 months; Mr. McCracken and Mr. Gray are each entitled to a payment equal to their base salary plus Average Bonus payable over 12 months; and Ms. Rieger and Mr. Christopher are each entitled to received 12 months of

TABLE OF CONTENTS
base salary. In the event the termination occurs in contemplation of or within two years after a Change in Control of the Company, Mr. McLean’s severance payment is increased to two and one half times the sum of his base salary plus Average Bonus, paid in installments over 30 months, and Mr. McCracken and Mr. Gray are entitled to receive an amount equal to two times the sum of their base salary plus Average Bonus over a period of 24 months. For Mr. McLean, Mr. McCracken and Mr. Gray, Average Bonus in the event of a Change in Control shall mean the higher of target bonus or the average bonus paid for the most recent prior two completed fiscal years. If termination of employment occurs during the last six months of the applicable fiscal year, Mr. McLean, Mr. McCracken and Mr. Gray are also entitled to a pro-rata bonus for that fiscal year, based on actual performance.
Mr. McLean, Mr. McCracken and Mr. Gray are each entitled to continued health insurance coverage for up to the same period of time as severance is paid. The executives are entitled to receive continuation of the active medical and dental coverage that the named executive officer was eligible to participate in prior to the end of employment during the salary continuation period (other than under Mr. Christopher’s agreement, where he is reimbursed for a portion of COBRA amounts), provided that if the executive becomes eligible to participate in another medical or dental benefit plan through another employer or spousal plan during such period, the executive will be required to pay the full premium applicable to continuation coverage under COBRA.
The executives also are entitled to reasonable outplacement services, mutually agreed to by the Company and the named executive officer, for a period of up to 12 months or until subsequent employment is obtained, whichever occurs first.
Per their severance agreements, the named executive officers are entitled to a lump sum payment of unused vacation pay benefits granted to the named executive officer prior to their termination date.
Other Terms of Severance Agreements
The named executive officers will not be entitled to a severance payment under the severance agreements in the event of termination for Cause or voluntary termination.
Under the severance agreements, the named executive officers agree to, and payments under the agreements are subject to, non-disclosure of confidential information (two years), non-disparagement (two years) and non-solicitation (18 months). The named executive officer severance agreements also contain non-compete agreements, where permissible under applicable state law and subject to waiver by the Company; the non-compete period is generally 12 months, but in the case of Mr. McLean, Mr. McCracken and Mr. Gray, the non-compete period is 24 months if a qualifying termination occurs in contemplation of, or within two years after, a change in control of the Company; provided, however, that if their non-competition covenant remains in effect for 24 months, they may elect to compete following the 12 month anniversary of termination date if they waive their right to the balance of any cash severance payments, and in the case of Mr. McLean, reimburse the Company pro rata for any portion of inducement grants which vested upon qualifying termination.
The severance agreements do not provide for payments to the participating named executive officers upon termination of employment due to death, disability or retirement. Our incentive programs and/or award agreements thereunder provide for eligibility to receive payments or vesting of awards upon the death or disability of named executive officers (and in certain cases, upon termination of employment by the Company without Cause or by the executive for Good Reason) as provided below.
Named executive officers are not entitled to any “golden parachute” excise tax gross-up payments under any plan or agreement with the Company.
Payments Pursuant to Incentive Compensation Programs
As described under “— Compensation, Discussion and Analysis” above, the Company provides annual and long-term incentive awards to our named executive officers. Payments under these programs for termination of employment are treated as described below.
36

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Annual Incentive Plan. Generally, if a participant in the AIP voluntarily terminates employment (for any reason other than disability) or is involuntarily terminated for any reason (other than death) prior to the payment date for an AIP award, he or she will forfeit their AIP award. In the event of death or disability, the named executive officer will be entitled to a pro rata payment through the termination date if the financial criteria under the AIP are satisfied. In the case of each of Mr. McLean, Mr. McCracken and Mr. Gray, per each individual’s Executive Severance Agreement, in the event his employment is terminated without Cause or he terminates his employment for Good Reason, within the last six months of a fiscal year, he will be entitled to a pro rata bonus that would otherwise be payable under the AIP for such fiscal year based on actual results for the fiscal year.
Performance Cash Awards. If any named executive officer voluntarily terminated employment (for any reason other than disability) or was involuntary terminated for any reason (other than death), he or she would forfeit any performance cash awards, which were made pursuant to the Company’s Long-Term Incentive Program (as Amended and Restated) (the “LTIP”), except as otherwise specifically agreed with the individual, or prohibited by law. Under the LTIP, in the event of death or disability, he or she would be entitled to a pro rata payment through the termination date if performance under the award, as of the termination date, equaled or exceeded the applicable performance targets and the named executive officer was a participant in the LTIP for at least 12 months of the performance period.
2017 Stock Plan Awards. Generally, if any named executive officer voluntarily terminates employment (for any reason other than disability) or is involuntary terminated for any reason (other than death) he or she will forfeit any unvested awards made under the 2017 Stock Plan. Following the 12-month anniversary of the grant date of their award, if any named executive officer’s employment is terminated because of (1) death, the unvested portion of their award will vest on a pro rata basis through the date of death, payable in cash to their estate, or (2) disability, the unvested portion of their award will vest on a pro rata basis through the date of termination.
Provisions in Equity Awards. Under the terms of the grant agreements governing Mr. McLean’s sign-on RSUs and sign-on stock options, in the event of termination due to death or disability, 50% of any then unvested sign-on RSUs will vest and 100% of any unvested sign-on stock options will vest, provided that on his earlier termination by the Company without cause or his resignation with good reason, any portion of the McLean sign-on awards that would have become vested within the 12 months following the date of separation from service will become immediately vested.
Change in Control Provisions of the 2017 Stock Plan. The 2017 Stock Plan, which governs the equity awards discussed above, provides that, except to the extent specified in the applicable award agreement, upon a change in control involving the Company, any non-vested portion of a named executive officer’s award will fully vest in the event that either (1) the surviving, continuing, successor, or purchasing entity fails to assume or continue our rights and obligations under such award or fails to provide the participant with a substantially equivalent award, or (2) the participant’s employment is terminated within 18 months following the change in control on account of a termination by the Company (or any acquiring entity) for any reason other than Cause or on account of a named executive officer’s resignation for Good Reason.
Potential Payments upon Termination of Employment
The table below summarizes the potential payouts to the named executive officers in the event of certain termination events. The amounts shown in the following table assume that the termination of employment occurred on January 31, 2025. The actual amounts that would be paid to the named executive officers can only be determined at the time of such executive’s separation.

​
Chief Executive Officer Pay Ratio
As required by Section 953(b) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following information about the relationship of the median annual total compensation of our employees (other than the then Chief Executive Officer) and the annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer during fiscal year 2024:
For fiscal year 2024:
•
the median of the annual total compensation of our employees (as defined above) was $29,519;
​
•
the median employee was a US-based full-time employee whose total compensation includes base wages, a discretionary bonus, and a 401(k) matching payment; and
​
•
the total annual compensation of the Chief Executive Officer for purposes of determining the Chief Executive Officer pay ratio was $4,181,966;
​
•
Mr. McLean’s total annual compensation includes his base wages, stock awards, non-equity incentive plan compensation, and other compensation, as shown on the Summary Compensation Table.
​
Based on this information, for fiscal year 2024, the ratio of the annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer, to the median of the annual total compensation of all employees was estimated to be 142 to 1.
We believe this pay ratio is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with SEC rules based on our payroll and employment records and the methodology described below. The SEC rules for identifying the median compensated employee and calculating the pay ratio based on that employee’s annual total compensation allow companies to adopt a variety of methodologies, to apply certain exclusions, and to make reasonable estimates and assumptions that reflect their compensation practices. As such, the pay ratio reported by other companies may not be comparable to the pay ratio reported above, as other companies may have different employment and compensation practices and may utilize different methodologies, exclusions, estimates and assumptions in calculating their own pay ratios.
To identify the median of the annual total compensation of all our employees, as well as to determine the annual total compensation of the “median employee,” the methodology and the material assumptions, adjustments, and estimates that we used were as follows:
•
We determined that, as of January 31, 2025, our employee population for purposes of determining our median employee consisted of 4,359 individuals globally:
​
39

TABLE OF CONTENTS
•
4,124 employees in the United States, and
​
•
235 employees in the United Kingdom.
​
•
In determining our employee population as of such date, we excluded less than 5% of our total global workforce (160 employees, comprised of 12 employees in Hong Kong, 9 employees in France and 139 employees in Germany) from the identification of the “median employee,” as permitted by the de minimis exemption under SEC rules.
​
•
Though under SEC rules we may have used the same median employee identified in our last Proxy Statement, we identified a new median employee for fiscal year 2024.
​
•
We selected January 31, 2025, as the date upon which we would identify the “median employee” because it was within the last three months of our fiscal year and because the disparate impact of seasonal employees on this determination would be minimized.
​
To identify the “median employee” from our employee population, we collected all taxable compensation, including base wages, overtime and any other compensation paid during fiscal year 2024. The Chief Executive Officer is excluded from the employee population for purposes of determining the median employee.
Pay Versus Performance
The following table shows the total compensation for our named executive officers for the past five fiscal years as set forth in the Summary Compensation Table, the “compensation actually paid” to our Principal Executive Officer (PEO) and, on an average basis, our other named executive officers (in each case, as determined under SEC rules), our Total Shareholder Return (TSR), the TSR of the S&P 600 Apparel Retail Index over the same period, our net income, and our financial performance measure for compensatory purposes, Adjusted EBITDA.
This disclosure has been prepared in accordance with Item 402(v) and does not necessarily reflect value actually realized by the executives or how the Compensation Committee evaluates compensation decisions in light of Company or individual performance. In particular, the Compensation Committee has not used compensation actually paid (CAP) as a basis for making compensation decisions, nor does it use GAAP Net Income for purposes of determining incentive compensation. Please refer to our Compensation Discussion and Analysis above for a discussion of our executive compensation program objectives and the ways in which we align executive compensation pay with performance.

SEC rules require certain adjustments be made to the Summary Compensation Table totals to determine “compensation actually paid” as reported in the Pay Versus Performance Table. “Compensation actually paid” does not necessarily represent cash and/or equity value transferred to the applicable named executive officer without restriction, but rather is a value calculated under applicable SEC rules. In general, “compensation actually paid” is calculated as Summary Compensation Table total compensation, adjusted to include the fair market value of equity awards as of the last day of the applicable fiscal year or, if earlier, the vesting date (rather than the grant date). The named executive officers do not participate in a defined benefit plan so no adjustment for pension benefits is included. Similarly, no adjustment is made for dividends, as dividends have not been paid. The valuation assumptions and processes used to recalculate fair values did not materially differ from those disclosed at the time of grant. The following tables detail the adjustments:
​

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Fiscal Year 2024 Performance Measures
As described in greater detail in “— Executive Compensation — Compensation Discussion and Analysis” above, our approach to executive compensation is designed to reward our named executive officers for the achievement of short-term and long-term financial goals, while minimizing excessive risk taking in the short term, and to motivate and encourage executives to drive performance and achieve superior results for the Company and its stockholders. The financial measures used by the Company to link compensation actually paid (as defined by SEC rules) to the Company’s named executive officers for the most recently completed fiscal year to the Company’s performance are:
Important Performance Measures
Adjusted EBITDA
Net Debt-to-Adjusted EBITDA Ratio
Return on Invested Capital (ROIC)
Stock Price
Policies and Practices Related to the Grant of Certain Equity Awards
Company practice is to not make equity awards in anticipation of the release of material nonpublic information that is likely to result in changes to the price of our common stock, such as a significant positive or negative earnings announcement, and not time the public release of such information based on equity award dates. In addition, it is our practice to not grant stock options or similar awards during periods in which there is material nonpublic information about the Company, including during “blackout” periods or outside a “trading window” established in connection with the public release of earnings information under our insider trading policy. Any options granted have a per share exercise price equal to the closing price of our common stock on the grant date.
The Compensation Committee typically approves annual equity awards in March of each year. Such equity awards are then made on the first trading day of the open window period under the Company’s Insider Trading Policy, following the release of the Company’s fiscal year-end financial results. Although the Compensation Committee may decide, in its sole discretion, to deviate from this equity grant timing depending upon facts and circumstances (e.g. in connection with new hire grants), we did not deviate from this timing during fiscal 2024 or time the disclosure of material nonpublic information for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation.
In fiscal 2024, the Company did not grant stock options or similar instruments with option-like features to any of its employees, directors or consultants, including its named executive officers.

ITEM 2. ADVISORY VOTE TO APPROVE THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS
Pursuant to Section 14A of the Securities Exchange Act, we are providing our stockholders with the opportunity to vote to approve, on a non-binding, advisory basis, the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this Proxy Statement in accordance with the SEC’s compensation disclosure rules.
As described in detail under the heading “— Executive Compensation — Compensation Discussion and Analysis” in this Proxy Statement, we seek to link a significant portion of the compensation of our named executive officers with the Company’s performance. Our compensation programs are designed to reward our named executive officers for the achievement of short-term and long-term financial goals, while minimizing excessive risk taking in the short term. We believe that our compensation program is strongly aligned with the long-term interests of our stockholders. We urge you to read the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section of this Proxy Statement for additional details on our executive compensation programs, including our compensation philosophy and objectives and the compensation of our named executive officers during fiscal year 2024.
The vote on this proposal is not intended to address any specific element of compensation; rather, the vote relates to the compensation of our named executive officers, as described in this Proxy Statement in accordance with the compensation disclosure rules of the SEC. The vote is advisory and is not binding on the Company, our Board, or the Compensation Committee of the Board. However, the Board and Compensation Committee value the opinions expressed by our stockholders in their voting on this proposal and will consider the outcome of the voting when making future compensation decisions and policies regarding our named executive officers.
THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL, ON A NON-BINDING ADVISORY BASIS, OF THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AS DESCRIBED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT

ITEM 3. RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Item 3 is the ratification of the Audit Committee’s appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP (“Deloitte”) as the independent registered public accounting firm to audit the financial statements of the Company for the fiscal year ending January 30, 2026 (fiscal year 2025). Our Board has directed that the fiscal year 2025 appointment be submitted to our stockholders for ratification. Although ratification of our appointment of Deloitte is not required, we value the opinions of our stockholders and believe that stockholder ratification of the appointment is a good corporate governance practice. Deloitte has served as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm since April 2024, and previously served as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm from 2012 through the conclusion of the audit for the fiscal year ended January 28, 2022. Representatives of Deloitte will be present at the Annual Meeting, and will be available to respond to your questions and may make a statement if they so desire.
Recent changes in accounting firm
On April 4, 2024, the Company, with the approval of the Audit Committee, notified BDO USA, P.C. (“BDO”) that BDO was being dismissed as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, effective immediately (the “Dismissal Date”), and the Company appointed Deloitte as its independent registered public accounting firm for its fiscal year ending January 31, 2025. The Company also engaged Deloitte to re-audit its financial statements for the Company fiscal years ended January 27, 2023 and February 2, 2024.
During the Company’s fiscal years ended January 27, 2023 and February 2, 2024 and through the Dismissal Date, the Company did not have any disagreement with BDO on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreement, if not resolved to BDO’s satisfaction, would have caused BDO to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in their reports on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In addition, during the Company’s fiscal years ended January 27, 2023 and February 2, 2024 and through the Dismissal Date, there were no “reportable events” as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K. BDO’s reports on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the fiscal years ended January 27, 2023 and February 2, 2024 did not contain any adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. The Fiscal 2023 audit was completed, and BDO’s audit report was included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for Fiscal 2023, filed April 3, 2024.
The Company provided BDO with a copy of auditor change disclosures prior to filing its April 4, 2024 Current Report on Form 8-K (the “8-K”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and requested that BDO furnish it with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether or not it agrees with the statements in Item 4.01(a) of the 8-K. BDO confirmed they agreed with the statements made in Item 4.01(a) of the 8-K. A copy of BDO’s letter, dated April 8, 2024, was filed as Exhibit 16.1 to the 8-K.
In connection with the Company’s appointment of Deloitte as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and during the Company’s two most recent fiscal years ended January 27, 2023 and February 2, 2024 and through April 4, 2024, the Company did not consult Deloitte on any matter relating to either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific transaction, either completed or contemplated, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements or (ii) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement (as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) or a “reportable event” ​(as that term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm Fees
The following table shows the fees paid or accrued by the Company and its subsidiaries for the audit and other services provided by principal auditor BDO and their respective affiliates in fiscal year 2023, and by principal auditor Deloitte in fiscal year 2024.

​
The Audit Committee must pre-approve all engagements of our independent registered public accounting firm, as required by its charter and the rules of the SEC. For each fiscal year, the Audit Committee approves an annual estimate of fees for engagements, taking into account whether the services are permissible under applicable law and the possible impact of each non-audit service on the independent registered public accounting firm’s independence from management. In addition, the Audit Committee evaluates known potential engagements of the independent registered public accounting firm, including the scope of the proposed work to be performed and the proposed fees, and approves or rejects each service. Management may present additional services for approval at subsequent committee meetings. The Audit Committee has delegated to the Audit Committee Chair the authority to evaluate and approve engagements with related fees of up to $100,000 on behalf of the Audit Committee in the event a need arises for pre-approval between Committee meetings. If the Audit Committee Chair so approves any such engagements, that approval is presented to the full Audit Committee at its next meeting.
All of the fiscal year 2023 and 2024 audit and other services provided by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firms were pre-approved in accordance with the Audit Committee’s policies and procedures.

TABLE OF CONTENTS
Management is responsible for the financial reporting process, including its internal control over financial reporting, and for the preparation of its consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for performing an independent audit of the consolidated financial statements and internal control over financial reporting and expressing opinions on (i) the conformity of the financial statements with GAAP; and (ii) the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting. The Audit Committee’s responsibility is to monitor and review these processes, acting in an oversight capacity, and the Audit Committee does not certify the financial statements or guarantee the independent registered public accounting firm’s report. The Audit Committee relies, without independent verification, on the information provided to it, including representations made by management and the independent registered public accounting firm, including its audit report.
The Audit Committee discussed with Deloitte, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year 2024, the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB). The Audit Committee has received the written disclosures and the letter from Deloitte required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding Deloitte’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence and has discussed with Deloitte its independence. The Audit Committee reviewed and discussed with management and Deloitte the audited consolidated financial statements of Lands’ End, Inc. for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025. Based on the review and discussions noted above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that the audited consolidated financial statements of Lands’ End, Inc. be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2025.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND TRANSACTIONS
Review and Approval of Transactions with Related Persons
The Company’s Audit Committee Charter requires that the Audit Committee review and approve all related- party transactions required to be disclosed pursuant to SEC rules. With respect to each related-party transaction, the Audit Committee will take into account, among other factors it deems appropriate, whether the transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to the Company than terms generally available from an unaffiliated third-party under the same or similar circumstances and the extent of the related person’s interest in the transaction.
The Board has adopted a written Related Party Transactions Approval Policy that governs the Audit Committee’s practices with respect to related party transactions. In evaluating any related party transaction, the Audit Committee takes into account, among other factors it deems appropriate, whether the transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to the Company or its subsidiaries than would be obtained in a comparable arm’s-length transaction and the extent of the related person’s interest in the transaction.
The Company is a party to a license agreement dated as of July 2024, with an affiliate of Josephine Linden, pursuant to which it maintains an office in New York, New York, and also receives use of and access to a conference room, kitchen and other common areas, utilities, and the services of an office manager for $9,600 per month. This amount is comparable to the rent paid by the affiliate to its landlord for its use of and access to a separate dedicated office and those common areas plus the Company’s pro rata share of the common space and utilities charges, and administrative support services. The disinterested members of the Audit Committee approved the license arrangement after determining that the amounts paid thereunder are not compensatory to Mrs. Linden. The arrangement may be renewed annually by mutual agreement of the parties and subject to approval by the disinterested members of the Audit Committee.
Other than the foregoing, since February 2, 2024, there has been no transaction in which Lands’ End was or is to be a participant and the amount involved exceeds $120,000, in which any related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.
