filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (&#147;<B>SEC</B>&#148;) on July&nbsp;20, 2005 by Blair Corporation, a
Delaware corporation (&#147;<B>Blair</B>&#148; or the &#147;<B>Company</B>&#148;), as amended and supplemented by Amendment No.&nbsp;1 to
the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule&nbsp;TO-I/A filed with the SEC on August&nbsp;8, 2005 and Amendment
No.&nbsp;2 to the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule&nbsp;TO-I/A filed with the SEC on August&nbsp;15, 2005,
pursuant to Rule&nbsp;13e-4 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the &#147;<B>Exchange Act</B>&#148;),
in connection with an offer by Blair to purchase up to 4,400,000 shares of common stock, without
nominal or par value, or such lesser number of shares as are properly tendered and not properly
withdrawn, at a price of $42.00 per share, net to the seller in cash, without interest. Blair&#146;s
offer was made upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase
dated July&nbsp;20, 2005 and in the related Letter of Transmittal which, as amended or supplemented from
time to time, together constituted the offer. This Final Amendment is intended to satisfy the
reporting requirements of Rule&nbsp;13e-4(c)(4) of the Exchange Act. Copies of the Offer to Purchase and
the related Letter of Transmittal were previously filed with the Schedule&nbsp;TO-I as exhibits
(a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii), respectively.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">All information in the Offer to Purchase, Amendment No.&nbsp;1 and Amendment No.&nbsp;2 is incorporated

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">WARREN, Pa., (August&nbsp;23, 2005) &#150; Blair Corporation (Amex: BL), (www.blair.com), a national
multi-channel direct marketer of women&#146;s and men&#146;s apparel and home products, today announced the
final results of the Company&#146;s tender offer to purchase 4,400,000 shares of its common stock at a
price of $42.00 per share, net to the seller in cash, without interest. The Company commenced the
tender offer on July&nbsp;20, 2005 and it expired on August&nbsp;16, 2005.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Based on a final count by Computershare Trust Company of New York, the depositary for the tender
offer, a total of 6,304,810 shares were properly tendered and not withdrawn. Blair has accepted
for purchase 4,400,000 shares at $42.00 per share. Due to over-subscription, the Company will
purchase approximately 69.8&nbsp;percent of each stockholder&#146;s total shares tendered. The Company will return to each
stockholder approximately 30.2&nbsp;percent of those shares tendered. Payment for shares accepted for
purchase and the return of all other shares tendered, but not accepted for payment, will be made
promptly by Computershare. Following the purchase of the shares tendered in the tender offer, the
Company expects to have approximately 3,857,313 shares of its common stock issued and outstanding.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&#147;This tender offer was designed to strengthen our position as an independent public company,&#148; said
John E. Zawacki, president and CEO. &#147;And, in all regards, it was successful. As a result, we remain
confident in our ability to further increase our profitability and provide enhanced value to all of
our shareholders &#150; both current and future. &#148;
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Blair
financed the tender offer with credit from the Company&#146;s
lenders, including PNC Bank and $64.8
million of its own cash reserves. Blair intends to repay funds borrowed for the tender offer with
the proceeds received from the previously announced sale of its credit portfolio to Alliance
