Looking For High Density Foam Padding

[Lwleather]

The time has come where I need to build a pair of pick-up chaps. Where do you get your high density foam padding? Thanks for any help!

Don't know what pick-up chaps are, but camping pads are a good cheap source of padding.

Lot's to choose from here. They have pretty good prices and really fast turn around.

That's the source that David Theobold recommended for his seat foam, so I gave them a shot with his endorsement

I bought some foam for my press from www.knifekits.com They have it in pre cut smaller pieces, but it's an inch thick. I love the foam for the press, but it's too thick for these leggings I'm thinking. Also, thanks Cyberthrasher, I think that's what I'm looking for.

Can you compare this foam with a 40 durometer in relation to hardness?

I'm looking for something less than 40.

Honestly Kevin, I have no idea... The foam I got from knife kits is awesome for holsters. That's what I'm using it for anyway... I don't know how to tell on the density. It's very dense stuff.... Sorry I'm not much help... If you can tell me how to check it without some fancy tool, I'll sure help you out..

If you squeeze it between your thumb and index finger and it doesn't move, it will be close to 40 durometer.
