Rockmount Ranch Wear was started in Denver by “Papa” Jack Weil in 1946. Over the years the company has played a leading role in the development of Western wear, as it was the first company to put snaps on Western shirts and the first to commercially produce bolo ties. The Smithsonian and the Autry Museum of the American West have Rockmount items in their collections. The company is still family owned, and Jack was the world’s oldest CEO, going to work every day until his passing at 107.
“The West is not a place, it is a state of mind.” Jack Weil
