What's the best way to replace a leather sweatband these days?

[Wesslyn]

Taking some hats out of retirement. (Hi, folks. Been a while, eh?)
My favorite old 40s Resistol's sweatband is crumbling and the reed is coming out. I'm not handy on sewing. Is there a service or place that anyone is having success having these types of repairs done? It's been a while since I've been in the hat game, and I have some catching up to do! I know Optimo used to, but not sure if they still do?


Anyway. Any suggestions are appreciated!

B.M. Franklin & Co in Atlanta seems to have good pricing. I'm going to use them for an older Borsalino shortly.
