This week, we’re bringing you our sit-down with Dean Serratelli, owner of the Serratelli Hat Company in Newark, New Jersey.

Dean gave us full access to the factory and sat down for an honest conversation about what it really takes to survive in the hat business—from navigating supplier relationships and protecting family legacy to how Serratelli builds hats from raw material to finished product.

We talk history, quality, and the current state of the western wear industry. No fluff—just real answers from a fifth-generation hatmaker still doing it the right way.

If you’ve ever wanted to know what separates a real cowboy hat from the rest, this one’s for you.

In this episode, we sit down with Justin Biltonen—best known as the bass player for multi-platinum rock band 3 Doors Down. But that’s just part of the story. Justin has carved out a successful solo career in country music and built a reputation as a skilled silversmith with his western jewelry brand, Sacred West Vintage.

We talk about life on the road with 3 Doors Down, the transition into country songwriting, and what it means to handcraft pieces of silver that carry meaning and tradition. From the stage to the silver bench, Justin shares the highs, the grind, and the inspiration behind it all.
