It doesn’t hold its shape well, has porous finishes, and lacks the durability needed for wearable costumes. As a result, this type is not recommended for serious cosplayers looking for lasting creations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMedium density\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e(hardness 30º-40º Shore) is the most commonly used type in cosplay.

This type can be heat-formed, sanded, and detailed easily, making it versatile for various projects.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHard density\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e(hardness over 50º Shore-A) is more rigid and durable, used for larger or more complex pieces that need to maintain their shape over time.

While it is heavier and more challenging to work with than medium density, the hard-density version provides a sturdy, polished finish for professional-grade projects.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContent: 1 sheet \u003cbr\u003eMaterial: Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate\u003cbr\u003eHardness: 50º Shore-A\u003cbr\u003eDensity: 250 Kg\/m3 (High Density)\u003cbr\u003eThickness: 5 mm\u003cbr\u003eSize: 475X950mm\u003cbr\u003eColor: dark grey\u003cbr\u003eFinish: smooth 2 sides\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"page-product-box clearfix\"\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"page-product-box clearfix\"\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Green Stuff World","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53734145556843,"sku":"13284","price":24.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0565\/9705\/3645\/files\/gamers-guild-az-green-stuff-world-eva-foam-cosplay-high-density-dark-grey-5mm-green-stuff-world-1254578436.jpg?v=1787000111","url":"https:\/\/gamersguildaz.com\/en-ca\/products\/eva-foam-cosplay-high-density-black-5mm","provider":"Gamers Guild AZ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
