Rocky Mountain

« The Cowboy State »

Rocky Mountain Featherbed was founded in Jackson Hole in Wyoming known as "the Cowboy State", U.S.A., in the late 1960s. The company created its iconic down vest with a seamless single-piece leather yoke for cowboys.

The idea of the yoke came from the leather capes that Native Americans were wearing. Its down vests became very famous for its cold-proof and heat-retaining features like those of feather beds. The founder of Rocky Mountain Featherbed is a pioneer of using GORE TEX® that was the most high-tech materials at that time. His outdoor knowledge learned at National Outdoor Leadership School and survival skills helped him to develop a GORE TEX® mountain parka with the leather yoke. It was thought that the brand would have been growing further, however, it ended up disappearing in the 1980s.
