Hat Help

I'm looking for a straw hat with a round top like this one:

Luffy's Hat

I know there's a few threads already out there, but I haven't come across anyone mentioning online stores to buy them from. I live in a small town that doesn't have Michaels or Value Village and as far as I've looked, no stores in town have what I'm looking for.

Does anyone know of any online stores I might buy one from? Ebay isn't being very good to me either :P Thanks!

The problem with a lot of the ones being sold as cosplay items is that they're BRIGHT FRIGGIN YELLOW. They're not natural-looking.

I got mine from a historical re-enactor for five bucks. Try re-enactors' sites, just look for straw hats. You'll have to add the hat band but it's a piece of red bias tape, so easy. Or, if you get one of the merchandised ones, pick one that looks more natural and not day-glo yellow.
