Joubert's hat

I'm trying to source a hat similar to that of Joubert, possibly in Europe, but I'm willing to purchase it from the US.
He wears a brown Fedora/Trilby sort of hat, possibly made out of wool or maybe felt.

I've tried ebay, especially vintage items; some European hat suppliers, but to no avail (size ~61cms).
(I've been watching ebay for quite some time now).

Any help or link would be greatly appreciated.
Wishing you all a Happy New Year 2017.

Your best bet is to but a similar cheap felt fedora from Ebay and replace the bandhttp://www.ebay.com/itm/ORVIS-Mens-Packable-Felt-Hat-Fedora-Made-In-USA-Size-Medium-/142259682497?hash=item211f567cc1:g:-fYAAOSw44BYirRv

If you haven't found one, or someone else is looking, my impression was that it was a Tyrolean hat. Do you think it was a coincidence that Higgins (Cliff Robertson) wears the same model?

See what you think:
