What to do about hats slightly too large?

I own several hats, one (only) wool Bittner Alpenhut, an Akubra, and three Borsalino fur felt hats. They are all 7-1/4. I suffer from baldness clearly caused by excessive testosterone levels -- well that's my story and I'm sticking to it. My hat size is now 7-1/8.

What procedure do I follow to bring hats and head size into congruity? I have been using a thin strip of closed cell foam inside hatbands. This works, but I am uncomfortable with the kludge.
