Steve Weil: Owner, Rockmount Ranch Wear - Epi. 371, Host Dr. Mark Sublette

I had Steve Weil on the podcast today. It was a really a fun, interesting interview because it wasn"t done in the studio. It was actually done at Rockmount Ranch Wear Headquarters in Denver.  I highly encourage you go to this store (and bring your wallet) because there"s some really great things inside. I definitely walked away with a few Western and Hawaiian shirts. You see, Steve is the third generation owner of this company. That"s a really, really rare thing these days. His brand has been a staple in the realm of Western fashion for 80 years. His grandfather started it 1946 and he was the first guy to do a "snap" western shirt. Not to mention that everyone has worn this brand. Elvis, Eric Clapton, Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Robert Plant, and more.  I found it all absolutely fascinating. I knew the store was there, and I had been in it before, but to actually get to hear the man himself speak about how it all came to be was awesome. We get a behind the scene tour of the building, the museum area showing the history of these shirts and his family, and even a look at the garage where he keeps his vintage automobile collection. It a very interesting podcast and I hope you can take the time to watch it. If you find yourself in Denver do yourself a favor and visit Steve"s store. I think you"ll find it just as cool as I did.
