EVA Foam 
(Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate)
﻿

EVA Foam (Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate) is a firm, closed-cell foam with a softer, rubbery feel compared to polyethylene (cross-poly) foam. Its surface compresses when pressed but quickly retains its shape. The UV resistance, waterproof properties, and durability of EVA foam make it ideal for outdoor applications and popular for cosplay foam projects.
