If you need to fill in behind the sweat band to help cinch the fit up, some people use white felt from the fabric store.
What I have found to work very well and does not cause the sweat to wrinkle like so many that you see is about a six inch piece of paper towel rolled and creased maybe three or four times (depending on how loose the hat is) on each side. You can do about a three inch piece in the front or back if you need it. I always roll and crease it just a bit thinner than the width of the sweat so it does not show. If you use short pieces of felt or foam it will cause the sweat to get those ugly ripples.
