Where could I source the strap inside of a hard hat?

I am looking to make a Sam (Trick R Treat) costume for Halloween and in sourcing photos I found a shot of the inside of the mask and noticed they’re using something similar to a hard hat. I don’t know what this thing is called, or where I might find one outside of a hard hat. It seems like a great idea for a lot of helms so I’d love to pick one up, any leads you smart folks could give me?

Check our local thrift store. I usually see a lot of options for that sort of thing: batting helmets, old football helmets, hard hats lacrosse helmets, etc.

I’ve never seen replacement straps for a hard hat. Usually if the strap needs replacing a worker would buy the entire helmet, considering they aren’t that expensive.

"replacement hard hat suspension" on Amazon. Some of the Pyramex ones look close.
