                          Independent Auditors' Report



   The Board of Directors
   Johnson Worldwide Associates, Inc.:

   We have audited the accompanying statement of assets acquired of the
   SpiderWire product line of Safari Land Ltd., Inc. as of March 31, 1995
   pursuant to the Purchase Agreement referred to in note 1 of notes to the
   statement of assets acquired.  The statement of assets acquired is the
   responsibility of Johnson Worldwide Associates, Inc.'s (JWA) management. 
   Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this statement of assets
   acquired based on our audit.

   We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
   standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
   obtain reasonable assurance about whether the statement of assets acquired
   is free of material misstatement.  An audit of a statement of assets
   acquired includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the
   amounts and disclosures in that statement of assets acquired.  An audit of
   a statement of assets acquired also includes assessing the accounting
   principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
   evaluating the overall statement of assets acquired presentation.  We
   believe that our audit of the statement of assets acquired provides a
   reasonable basis for our opinion.

   As indicated in note 1, the accompanying statement of assets acquired was
   prepared solely to present the assets acquired pursuant to the Purchase
   Agreement, and is not intended to be a complete presentation of the assets
   and liabilities of the SpiderWire product line of Safari Land Ltd., Inc.

   In our opinion, the statement of assets acquired referred to above
   presents fairly, in all material respects, the assets acquired of the
   SpiderWire product line at March 31, 1995, pursuant to the Purchase
   Agreement referred to in note 1 of notes to the statement of assets
   acquired, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

   Notes to Statement of Assets Acquired

   March 31, 1995

                                                                             

   (1)   Basis of Presentation

         The SpiderWire product line (Business) of Safari Land Ltd., Inc.
         (Safariland) is a line of sport fishing tackle products distributed
         throughout the United States and Canada.  In addition to the
         Business, Safariland is also involved in the manufacture and
         distribution of duty gear and body armor for various law enforcement
         agencies and the manufacture and distribution of automotive
         products.

         Johnson Worldwide Associates, Inc. (JWA) entered into an Asset
         Purchase Agreement between JWA and Safariland dated as of March 31,
         1995 (Purchase Agreement).  Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, JWA
         acquired all the rights, title and interest of Safariland to all of
         the Business' personal property, trademarks, copyrights and other
         intellectual property, sales and promotional literature, records,
         files, customer lists and other data, inventory, interests in the
         name "SpiderWire" and derivatives therefrom and names similar
         thereto, and general intangibles, and certain of the Business'
         contracts, purchase orders and sales orders for an initial purchase
         price of $24,400,000 in cash.  All other assets of the Business were
         retained by Safariland.  Except for certain future contractual
         obligations relating to the Business, JWA did not assume any
         liabilities of the Business or Safariland.  Additional purchase
         price payments in fiscal years 1996 through 2001 may be required
         depending upon the achievement of specified levels of sales and
         profitability of certain of the acquired products.

         The accompanying statement of assets acquired reflects the
         historical cost basis of the assets acquired by JWA pursuant to the
         Purchase Agreement.  Assets and liabilities of the Business that
         were not acquired or assumed have no continuing significance to the
         Business and have been eliminated from the statement of assets
         acquired.

   (2)   Inventory

         Inventory is stated at the lower of cost, determined using the
         first-in, first-out method, or market.  Inventory at March 31, 1995
         consists of the following:

                                                                             

         Raw materials                                            $ 1,697,000
         Work in process                                              949,000
         Finished goods                                               769,000
                                                                   ----------
         Total inventory                                           $3,415,000
                                                                             


         In the event that JWA does not sell or otherwise consume all of the
         acquired inventory by March 31, 1996, Safariland is obligated to
         refund the price which JWA paid for such inventory.

         Subsequent to March 31, 1995, JWA purchased approximately $567,000
         of raw material components from Safariland, which have been used in
         production.

   (3)   Trademarks

         The cost of trademarks acquired or developed are capitalized and
         amortized using the straight-line method over a 40-year useful life.

   (4)   Commitments

         Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, JWA assumed certain contractual
         obligations relating to advertising and endorsement agreements,
         purchase orders and sales orders.  Commitments relating to these
         advertising and endorsement agreements and purchase orders for the
         periods ending September 30 are as follows:  1995 - $2,121,000; 1996
         - $2,269,000; and 1997 - $843,000.

   Notes to Statements of Revenues and Direct Operating Expenses

   Year Ended September 30, 1994 and Six Months Ended March 31, 1995

   (Unaudited)

                                                                             

   (1)   Basis of Presentation

         The SpiderWire product line (Business) of Safari Land Ltd., Inc.
         (Safariland) is a line of sport fishing tackle products distributed
         throughout the United Sates and Canada.  In addition to the
         Business, Safariland is also involved in the manufacture and
         distribution of duty gear and body armor for various law enforcement
         agencies and the manufacture and distribution of automotive
         products.

         Johnson Worldwide Associates, Inc. (JWA) entered into an Asset
         Purchase Agreement between JWA and Safariland dated March 31, 1995
         (Purchase Agreement).  Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, JWA
         acquired all the rights, title and interest of Safariland to all of
         the Business' personal property, trademarks, copyrights and other
         intellectual property, sales and promotional literature, records,
         files, customer lists and other data, inventory, interests in the
         name "SpiderWire" and derivatives therefrom and names similar
         thereto, and general intangibles, and certain of the Business'
         contracts, purchase orders and sales orders for an initial purchase
         price of $24,400,000 in cash.  All other assets of the Business were
         retained by Safariland.  Except for certain future contractual
         obligations relating to the Business, JWA did not assume any
         liabilities of the Business or Safariland.  Additional purchase
         price payments in fiscal years 1996 through 2001 may be required
         depending upon the achievement of specified levels of sales and
         profitability of certain of the acquired products.

         The accompanying unaudited statements of revenues and direct
         operating expenses of the Business for the year ended September 30,
         1994 and the six months ended March 31, 1995 have been prepared from
         the historical books and records of Safariland and include only
         those revenues and operating expenses directly attributable to the
         Business.  Some additional indirect expenses related to the physical
         operating costs of the Business, primarily personnel-related costs
         and other administrative allocations were incurred.  These costs
         have been omitted from the accompanying statements of revenues and
         direct operating expenses.

         It is impractical for JWA to provide an audited statement of
         operations reflecting the historical results of the Business (i.e.
         those costs related to the specific assets acquired) since (1) the
         assets acquired represent only a portion of the operations of
         Safariland, which in themselves, do not constitute a separate
         entity, but instead a portion of a larger operation; and (2) such
         financial records, specific to the assets acquired and related
         operations, exclusive of direct operating revenues and expenses,
         include certain expenses incurred for all of Safariland not readily
         attributable solely to the Business.

   (2)   Revenue Recognition

         Revenue from sales is recognized on the accrual basis, primarily
         upon the shipment of products, net of estimated costs of returns and
         allowances.

   (3)   Income Taxes

         The accompanying statements of revenues and direct operating
         expenses do not include charges for income taxes since income taxes
         are considered to be corporate expenses of Safariland.

   (4)   Allocated Costs

         The accompanying statements of revenues and direct operating
         expenses include direct revenue and expenses of the Business only. 
         In connection with its overall business, Safariland provided certain
         services including finance, legal and professional, human resources
         and management information services to the Business.  Costs
         associated with these services have been omitted from the statements
         of revenues and direct operating expenses.

   (5)   Major Customers

         Sales to major customers representing 10% or more of net sales for
         the year ended September 30, 1994 and the six months ended March 31,
         1995 are summarized as follows:

                                  Year Ended        Six Months
                                September 30,        Ended
                                    1994         March 31, 1995

                Customer A           22%              12%
                Customer B           11%               8%
                Customer C            9%              13%

   (6)   Related Parties

         Net sales for the six months ended March 31, 1995 includes
         approximately $918,000 of sales to JWA or certain of its
         subsidiaries.  No similar sales were made during the year ended
         September 30, 1994.

   (7)   Advertising Expenses

         Marketing and selling expenses includes advertising expenses of
         approximately $1,704,000 and $1,250,000 for the year ended September
         30, 1994 and the six months ended March 31, 1995, respectively. 
         Safariland's policy with respect to advertising costs of the
         Business is to recognize these costs over the estimated life of the
         individual advertising activity's benefit (generally one year or
         less).  In December 1993, the American Institute of Certified Public
         Accountants issued Statement of Position (SOP) 93-7 which provided
         definitive guidance for advertising activities.  Adoption of the
         provisions of SOP 93-7 will be required for JWA's fiscal year ending
         September 29, 1995.

   
               (b)  Pro Forma Financial Information.



                       JOHNSON WORLDWIDE ASSOCIATES, INC.
                          UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED
                       CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

               The following unaudited pro forma financial information
   relates to the acquisition (such acquisition as well as the consummation
   of certain related transactions is referred to herein as the
   "Acquisition") by Johnson Worldwide Associates, Inc. ("JWA") of
   substantially all of the assets of the SpiderWire/TM/ product line (the
   "Business") of Safari Land Ltd., Inc.  The Acquisition, which was
   accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, was deemed to be
   effective as of the close of business on March 31, 1995.  The pro forma
   financial information also gives effect to the acquisition of
   substantially all of the assets of the Neptune product line ("Neptune") of
   Goldeneye Products, Inc., which closed on June 30, 1995 and was accounted
   for using the purchase method of accounting (the "Neptune Acquisition"). 
   The pro forma amounts have been prepared based on certain purchase
   accounting and other pro forma adjustments (as described in the
   accompanying notes) to the historical financial statements of JWA, the
   Business and Neptune.

               The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of
   operations reflect the historical results of operations of JWA, the
   Business and Neptune for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1994, and the
   six months ended March 31, 1995, with pro forma acquisition adjustments as
   if the Acquisition and the Neptune Acquisition had occurred as of the
   beginning of the respective periods.  The unaudited pro forma condensed
   consolidated balance sheet reflects the historical financial position of
   JWA, the Business and Neptune at March 31, 1995, with pro forma
   acquisition adjustments as if the Acquisition and the Neptune Acquisition
   had occurred on March 31, 1995.  The pro forma adjustments are described
   in the accompanying notes and give effect to events that are (a) directly
   attributable to the Acquisition and the Neptune Acquisition, (b) factually
   supportable, and (c) in the case of certain income statement adjustments,
   expected to have a continuing impact.

               The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial
   statements should be read in connection with JWA's Annual Report on Form
   10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1994 and Quarterly Report on
   Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 1995 along with the financial
   statements of the Business and related notes that appear elsewhere in this
   Current Report on Form 8-K.

               The unaudited pro forma financial information presented is for
   information purposes only and does not purport to represent what JWA's
   financial position or results of operations as of the dates presented
   would have been had the Acquisition and the Neptune Acquisition in fact
   occurred on such date or at the beginning of the periods indicated or to
   project JWA's financial position or results of operations for any future
   date or period.

                       JOHNSON WORLDWIDE ASSOCIATES, INC.
         NOTES TO PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (unaudited)

   NOTE 1

   The pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet has been prepared to
   reflect the purchase by JWA of selected assets of the Business from Safari
   Land Ltd., Inc. ("Safariland") and selected assets and liabilities of
   Neptune from Goldeneye Products, Inc. ("Goldeneye") (together, the
   "Acquired Businesses").  Selected assets acquired have been recorded at
   net book value at March 31, 1995, which approximates fair market value. 
   The pro forma adjustments as of March 31, 1995 reflect the following:

   (a) The allocation of excess of cost over the fair value of net assets
       acquired to goodwill.

   (b) The financing for the acquisitions.


   NOTE 2

   The pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations for the year
   ended September 30, 1994 and the six months ended March 31, 1995 are based
   on the financial statements of JWA and the Business for the twelve months
   ended September 30, 1994 and for the six months ended March 31, 1995,
   respectively, and Neptune for the twelve months ended June 30, 1994 and
   for the six months ended December 31, 1994, respectively, after giving
   effect to the following pro forma adjustments:

   (a) Reduction of net sales resulting from the elimination of sales from
       Safariland to JWA or certain of its subsidiaries.

   (b) Additional operating expenses, primarily amortization expense,
       resulting from the amortization of intangible assets based on a useful
       life of 25 years.

   (c) Additional interest expense resulting from the debt obtained to
       finance the acquisition and provide working capital, at rates in
       effect at the beginning of, or during the respective periods, as
       appropriate.

   (d) Provision for income tax benefits resulting from the proforma
       adjustments using statutory tax rates.


   NOTE 3

   The financial information of the Acquired Businesses utilized in the pro
   forma condensed consolidated financial statements has been extracted from
   the full financial statements of Safariland and Goldeneye.  Certain
   expenses, such as executive salaries, have not been allocated to the
   Acquired Businesses.  Certain expenses, such as interest, have been
   estimated.  Income tax expense or benefit has been calculated using
   statutory tax rates.  Similarly, certain assets of Safariland and
   Goldeneye, such as cash and accounts receivable, and all liabilities, were
   not acquired and are not reflected in the assets and liabilities of the
   Acquired Businesses.

   part of this Current Report on Form 8-K.
