Adding Hanesbrands, HBI, to my basket of clothing stocks.

Based on management's guidance for 2011 earnings, forward p/e is about 8.8x -- not great, but not bad either (imo). As of last year's presentation, HBI says they are #1 in market share for several categories of "innerwear" - socks, intimate apparel, male underwear; for "outwear" #2 in T-shirts, #1 in Fleece, #3 in "activewear".

Company has been raising prices to offset rise in cotton prices. Revenues and earnings though seem to be holding up well:
