Silversmith Victor Cedarstaff of Wickenburg, Arizona, claims to have invented the bolo tie in the late 1940s, and later patented his slide design.

According to an article in Sunset Magazine:

Victor Cedarstaff's hat blew off one day riding his on his horse. After his hat fell of he became worried he would loose his silver-trimmed Hat Band, he slipped it around his neck. His friend laughed and said, "That's a nice-looking tie you're wearing, Vic." Victor Cedarstaff soon had an idea from that and fashioned the first bola tie (the name is derived from boleadora, an Argentine lariat).

Boleadoras also know as a Bola
Boleadoras also know as a Bola

Bolas or Boleadoras (from Spanish bola, "ball"): throwing weapons made of weights attached to the end of cords.

It is said as well that the bolo tie is a North American conception that dates aback to amid 1866 and 1886. There is a bolo tie at a trading column in Zuni Pueblo, New Mexico, said to date back that far.

A bolo tie is a type of necktie consisting of a piece of cord or braided leather with decorative metal tips or aglets secured with an ornamental clasp or slide. In the United States bolo ties are widely associated with the Southwest and cowboy western wear, and are generally most common in the western areas of the country. Bolo tie slides and tips in silver have been part of Hopi, Navajo and Zuni silversmiths traditions since the mid-20th century. The bolo tie was made the official neck wear of Arizona in 1971. New Mexico passed a measure to name the as the state's official neck wear in 1987. On March 13, 2007, New Mexico Gov. Texas passed a law that named the bolo tie its official neck wear in 2007.
