** The calculation of the foregoing percentage is based on the number of
shares of Lands' End, Inc. common stock outstanding as of May 12, 2002 as
set forth in the Merger Agreement (as defined below).




Item 1.  Security and Issuer.

         This statement relates to shares of the common stock, par value
$.01 per share (the "Shares"), of Lands' End, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(the "Company"), whose principal executive offices are located at One
Lands' End Lane, Dodgeville, Wisconsin 53595. The telephone number of the
Company is (608) 935-9341.

Item 2.  Identity and Background.

         The persons filing this statement are Sears, Roebuck and Co.
("Sears"), a New York corporation, for and on behalf of itself and Inlet
Acquisition Corp. (the "Purchaser"), a Delaware corporation and a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Sears.

         Sears is a New York corporation with its principal offices located
at 3333 Beverly Road, Hoffman Estates, Illinois 60179. The telephone number
of Sears is (847) 286-2500. Sears is a multi-line retailer that provides a
wide array of merchandise and services. Sears' business is organized into
four principal business segments-Retail and Related Services, Credit and
Financial Products, Corporate and Other, and Sears Canada.

         The Purchaser is a Delaware corporation with its principal office
located at located at 3333 Beverly Road, Hoffman Estates, Illinois 60179.
The telephone number of Purchaser is (847) 286-2500. Purchaser was
incorporated on May 9, 2002 for the purpose of making a tender offer for
all of the common stock of the Company and has not engaged, and does not
expect to engage, in any business other than in connection with the Merger
and the Offer (as defined below).

         The names, citizenship, business addresses, present principal
occupation or employment, and the name and principal business and address
of any corporation or other organization in which such employment is
conducted, of the directors and executive officers of Sears and the
Purchaser are as set forth in Annex I hereto and incorporated herein by
this reference.

         Neither Sears, the Purchaser, nor, to their knowledge, any person
listed in Annex I has during the last five years (i) been convicted in a
criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors)
or (ii) been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative
body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is
subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations
of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state
securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

Item 3.  Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

         The Offer is not conditioned upon Sears' or the Purchaser's
ability to finance the purchase of Shares pursuant to the Offer.

         Sears and the Purchaser estimate that the total amount of funds
required to purchase all of the outstanding Shares pursuant to the Offer
and the Merger will be approximately $1.9 billion, including related fees
and expenses. Sears has available to it sufficient funds to close the Offer
and the Merger, and will cause the Purchaser to have sufficient funds
available to close the Offer and the Merger. Sears intends to obtain the
necessary funds from its ongoing free cash flow and a combination of
unsecured long term public debt or long term securities sold into the
asset-backed market. In the event that such financings are unavailable,
Sears will utilize cash on hand and/or arrange alternate financing, which
may include, among other financing alternatives, the issuance of its
unsecured commercial paper or borrowings via a syndicate of multi-seller,
asset-backed commercial paper conduit programs sponsored by various banks.

Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction.

         On May 12, 2002, Sears, the Purchaser and the Company entered into
an Acquisition Agreement and Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger
Agreement"). The Merger Agreement provides for the commencement of a tender
offer by the Purchaser to purchase all Shares of the Company, at a price of
$62 per Share, net to the seller in cash, upon the terms and subject to the
conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase and the related Letter of
Transmittal (which, together with any amendments or supplements thereto,
collectively constitute the "Offer"). Copies of the Offer to Purchase and
the related Letter of Transmittal are filed as exhibits to the Schedule TO
filed by Sears with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 17, 2002,
and are hereby incorporated herein by reference.

         The Merger Agreement provides, among other things, that, after the
consummation of the Offer and subject to certain conditions, the Purchaser
will be merged with and into the Company (the "Merger"), with the Company
continuing as the surviving corporation (the "Surviving Corporation"),
wholly owned by Sears. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the effective
time of the Merger (the "Effective Time"), each Share issued and
outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Shares held
by the Company as treasury stock, or owned by Sears, the Purchaser or any
of Sears' other wholly owned subsidiaries, all of which Shares will be
cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and other than Shares that
are held by stockholders, if any, who properly exercise their dissenters'
rights under the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL")), will be
converted into the right to received $62.00 or any greater value per Share
price paid in the Offer in cash, without interest.

         The Offer is conditioned upon, among other things, (i) there being
validly tendered and not withdrawn prior to the expiration of the Offer a
number of Shares that, together with any other Shares then beneficially
owned by Sears or the Purchaser or any of their subsidiaries, represents at
least two-thirds of the then issued and outstanding Shares on a fully
diluted basis and (ii) any applicable waiting period under the
Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, having
expired or been terminated. The Offer is also subject to other conditions
set forth in the Offer to Purchase, Section 15-"Certain Conditions of the
Offer."

         In connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, Sears
and the Purchaser entered into Tender Agreements, each dated as of May 12,
2002 (the "Tender Agreements"), with certain stockholders of the Company
(the Tendering Stockholders"), including Mr. Gary C. Comer, founder and
Chairman of the Company, and the Richard C. Anderson Trust, which is
associated with Mr. Richard C. Anderson, Vice Chairman of the Company.
Approximately 55% of the issued and outstanding Shares are subject to the
Tender Agreements.

         Pursuant to the Tender Agreements, each Tendering Stockholder has
agreed to tender all of his or its Shares into the Offer. Each Tendering
Stockholder has also agreed to vote his or its Shares (i) in favor of the
Merger and the Merger Agreement, (ii) against any action that would result
in a breach of any representation, warranty or covenant in the Merger
Agreement and (iii) against any action or agreement which would impede,
delay, interfere with or prevent the Merger.

         In addition, each Tendering Stockholder has granted to Sears an
irrevocable option (the "Stockholder Option") to purchase such Tendering
Stockholder's Shares for $62.00 per Share upon the occurrence of certain
events.

         The purpose of the Offer is to acquire control of, and the entire
equity interest in, the Company. The purpose of the Merger is the acquire
all outstanding Shares not tendered and purchased pursuant to the Offer. If
the Offer is successful, the Purchaser intends to consummate the Merger as
promptly as practicable.

         Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, promptly upon the
purchase of and payment for any Shares by the Purchaser pursuant to the
Offer, Sears currently intends to designate persons who will hold
two-thirds of the seats on the Board of Directors of the Company (the
"Company Board"). The Merger Agreement requires the presence of at least
three Independent Directors on the Company Board until the Effective Time.

         As of the date of this Schedule 13D, no determination has been
made as to which directors of the Company will serve as Independent
Directors.

         Sears has informed the Company that it will choose its designees
for directors of the Company from the directors and executive officers of
the Purchaser and the executive officers of Sears listed in Annex I hereto.
Each of the individuals listed in Annex I has consented to act as a
director of the Company, if so designated.

         It is expected that Sears' designees may assume office at any time
following the purchase by Purchaser of the Shares pursuant to the Offer,
which purchase cannot be earlier than June 14, 2002, and that, upon
assuming office, Sears' designees will thereafter constitute at least
two-thirds of the Company Board. As of the date of this Schedule 13D, no
determination has been made as to which of the individuals described in
Annex I will be designated to the Company Board, if any. Sears anticipates
that, if the Merger is completed in accordance with the Merger Agreement,
the Company will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sears, that Sears will
seek to cause the Shares to be delisted from quotation on the New York
Stock Exchange and that the Shares would become eligible for termination of
registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act").

         Except as otherwise provided in the Offer to Purchase, it is
expected that following the Merger, the business and operations of the
Company will, except as set forth in the Offer to Purchase, continue as
they are currently being conducted. Sears will continue to evaluate the
business and operations of the Company during the pendency of the Offer and
after the consummation of the Offer and the Merger and will take such
actions as it deems appropriate under the circumstances then existing.
Thereafter, Sears intends to review such information as part of a
comprehensive review of the Company's business, operations, capitalization
and management with a view to optimizing the development of the Company's
potential in conjunction with Sears' existing business.

         Except as set forth herein or in the Offer to Purchase, the
Purchaser and Sears have no present plans or proposals that would relate to
or result in (i) any extraordinary corporate transaction involving the
Company or any of its subsidiaries (such as a merger, reorganization,
liquidation, relocation or any operations or sale or transfer of a material
amount of assets), (ii) any sale or transfer of a material amount of assets
of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, (iii) any change in the Company
Board or management of the Company, (iv) any material change in the
Company's capitalization or dividend policy, (v) any material change in the
Company's corporate structure or business, (vi) a class of securities of
the Company being delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease
to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a
registered national securities association or (vii) a class of equity
securities of the Company being eligible for termination of registration
pursuant to Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act.

         At the Effective Time, the charter and by-laws of the Purchaser,
as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, will be the charter
and by-laws of the Surviving Corporation, except that Lands' End, Inc. will
continue as the name of the Surviving Corporation, until thereafter amended
in accordance with the DGCL.

Tender Agreements in this Item 4 are qualified in their entirety by this
reference to the Merger Agreement and the Tender Agreements, copies of

Schedule TO and which are incorporated by this reference in this Item 4 in

Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

         (a) and (b) For the purpose of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the
Exchange Act, the Purchaser and Sears, by reason of the execution and
delivery of the Tender Agreements, may be deemed to have shared voting
power and/or shared dispositive power with respect to (and therefore
beneficially own) 16,461,214 Shares, representing approximately 55% of the
outstanding Shares. Except as set forth in this Item 5, none of Sears, the
Purchaser or, to their knowledge, any person listed in Annex I hereto, owns
beneficially any Shares.

         With respect to the voting of the Shares, Sears and the Purchaser
have the power to vote or cause the vote of the Shares in accordance with
the terms of the Tender Agreements. Neither the filing of this Schedule 13D
nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission that
Sears or the Purchaser is the beneficial owner of the Shares referred to in
this Item 5 for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act or for any
other purpose, and such beneficial ownership is expressly disclaimed.

         (c) Except for the execution and delivery of the Tender Agreements
and the Merger Agreement, no transactions in the Shares were effected by
the Purchaser, Sears or, to their knowledge, any person listed in Annex I
hereto, during the 60 days prior to the date hereof.

         (d) Inapplicable.

         (e) Inapplicable.

         References to, and descriptions of, the Merger Agreement and the
Tender Agreements in this Item 5 are qualified in their entirety by this

described in this Schedule 13D, there are no contracts, arrangements,
understandings or relationships among the persons named in Item 2 above or
listed in Annex I hereto, and between any such persons and any other
person, with respect to any securities of the Company, including but not
limited to, transfer or voting of any of the securities of the Company,
joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees or
profits, division of profits or loss, or the giving or withholding of
proxies, or a pledge or contingency the occurrence of which would give
another person voting power over the securities of the Company.
