I'm working on a giant armored costume and this stuff is perfect! In a previous order with this company, Amazon shipped the wrong product, but the Foamery not only sent a replacement but overnighted it to make sure I got it in time. I'm a customer for life!

First time trying this foam and I love it so far!! It comes in a huge roll so there's more than enough for my project with some left over.

This foam is a game-changer for anyone looking to bring their costume visions to life. It’s lightweight, flexible, and incredibly easy to work with, making it perfect for creating intricate armor, accessories, or full-body suits. Whether you're crafting a detailed suit of armor or a sleek sci-fi helmet, EVA foam gives you the freedom to shape, cut, and paint with ease. What really stands out is how comfortable it is to wear — even for long hours at conventions or photoshoots. Plus, its durability means your costume will hold up to the rough and tumble of cosplay life. If you're serious about cosplay, EVA foam is your creative canvas — transforming your ideas into reality with just a little imagination and skill.

I used this foam to re-make my Rey Scavenger staff and it was sooo nice to work with. The density made it easy to cut and work with (you can see all the weird shapes I was making with it), sanded well and was easy to shape with a Dremel, responded great to heat, finished nicely with some foam clay, plastidip, and paint. I've used other foams before, but this is definitely my favorite! Now I just need a new project so I can use it again haha

This is my foam of choice.It's much better quality than most other foams I've tried using over the years.The 2mm is about the same as most other foams, though I will say I've yet to see any imperfections in the foam which is a huge plus.The 4mm is where the high density becomes more apparent. There is a marked difference between the 'regular' eva foam and this high-density foam. It will hold a curved shape, but cannot support its own weight and will need a support for most larger pieces.The 6mm is amazing! The high density quality is immediately known upon first feel. It sands beautifully, dremels just as well as long as you use a 120 grit drum, and it holds shape without much support.I've used only a little of the 8mm, but it holds its own weight well even for larger projects. When layered over a sturdy base, it is fantastic to use for huge props.Overall I would recommend this product to any costume/prop maker enthusiastically.

It was so exciting how easy it was to achieve the wanted forms! It is soft but at the same time holds the shape amazingly well. It is also super light, which is important for the kids costumes. I had a great experience crafting with it.

I use this foam for my pottery slab roller. It works well, has a good density to make the roller produce a smooth slab and clay doesn't stick to it. It's a bit of a time saver.

So, I have this fabulous child, who decided that she was going to start competing in Cos-Play competitions - this EVA foam was an absolute life saver for her to be able to complete her costume!! She was able to mold it, emboss it and paint it! Now a little mom brag time here: she was able to get chosen for 1 of 20 spaces to compete (in her category) at the Calgary Comic Expo 2023!

This reviews is from the perspective of a cosplayer. There is no doubt this is the best eva foam ive ever used in terms of quality. It cuts so smoothly it makes me question all the other foam ive ever used, it heats easily and sands like a dream. If you want foam to make a prop, weapon, or something that wont need to move much, this is your dream foam.However this is not nearly as much foam as i expected for the price. I will not be able to make my full costume using this and its too pricey to buy another roll just for a couple armor pieces. You are absolutely getting quality over quantity here. Its enough to make any prop i could think of and would be the best quality to work with, but if you need enough for a BIG project, be prepared to buy two!

I tried one of the cheaper EVA foams out there on Amazon, and they were flimsy, hard to mold with heat and very porous. I needed to coat them with at least 3 layers of primer and heating them wouldn't make them keep their shape. I decided to jump the gun and buy this high density foam, and I regret ever buying the cheaper foam! This is really all you need for cosplay and armor, it's so easy to work with! One side is very smooth while the other is a bit more porous, so it was easier to heat up the porous side and shape it, while the other side was great for painting! I still primed it, but only needed one layer and the paint went on it so smoothly.As you can see in my picture, I created an arm bracer and molding it was easy! It definitely kept its shape after heating it with a heat gun and it's sturdy, so I know it won't collapse on me while I'll be wearing it! This is definitely a no brainer if you want to save time and headaches and create amazing cosplays! This is my first time creating cosplay armor by the way, so this is definitely beginner friendly too.

I'm new to using EVA for armor building and had a small simple project. This foam was easier for me as a beginner because there is no relief/pattern on either side. It worked and handled as I expected and held up great at the con. I'm a plus sized "curvy girl" and I can put some stress on cosplays. This product did what I needed it to do, looked great at the con and is still in great shape for multiple wear. I'm going to be making a 'Stormbreaker' for my husband's Thor cosplay and expect it will be just as great for this purpose.
