EVA Foam: The Ultimate Material for Cosplayers of All Levels of Experience!

Unlike bulky, heavy plastics that don’t hold their shape and are difficult to form, EVA foam is extremely versatile, easy to work with and helps cosplayers achieve a high-end, polished look for their costumes. From intricate outer layers to the tiniest accessories, EVA foam is the perfect material for cosplayers looking to complete long-lasting, high-quality pieces.

Use EVA foam to build:

• Costume Armor
• Headpieces
• Weapons and Accessories

Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate (EVA)  is a closed cell foam.  It is often used in floor and exercise mats, sports equipment, crafts, kickboards, life jackets, flip-flops, and more importantly props and costumes for cosplay. EVA foam can be shaped with heat, glued to other pieces of EVA or materials, and painted.  EVA foam comes in various thickness and densities.

Our EVA-38 Foam is:

• Smooth on BOTH sides
• Has a shore hardness of 38.  Shore hardness represents how resistant the foam is to indentation.  The higher the number the stronger the foam.
• Comes in large 600 mm x 1500 mm (24″x 60″) sheets
• A smoother surface with minimal air holes.  This helps you produce a better final product
• A denser EVA foam than “craft” foam.
• Comes in black or white
• Available in a variety of thickness such as 2 mm (1/16 inch), 4 mm (3/16 inch), 6 mm (1/4 inch), 8 mm (5/16 inch), 10 mm (3/8 inch), and 12 mm (1/2 inch).
