Anyway, I found I'm somewhere between a 7 and 7 1/8. Then I tried on a Dobbs straw hat, similar to Belloq's, that had a heavenly fit and I looked to see what size it was but it just said medium. So I look it up on the internet when I get home to see what size their medium is and there were two medium options: 7 & 7 1/8. So now I'm stuck once more. So now I feel like I need to go back there to find out which medium size it was. They were only selling it for $60 too ($30 cheaper than what I saw on the internet), so I may go back and possibly get it.
Well today I went back and got that hat. There are some differences between the hat on that site and the one I got (NOT a leather sweatband, NOT made in USA, and on the ribbon it's more of a bow then whatever you call that thing on the picture). But overall it looks basically the same.
And I didn't buy it with the intent of it being a Belloq hat or anything, but I figure you could call it a 'close-enough' one.
