Best foam for making a camera bag?

I want to make a camera bag for my Canon DSLR which will be basically an insert in a regular backpack. I have tried craft stores (Joann) & their "high density foam" is totally weak & will not protect well enough. If you feel a real camera bag (or even backpack straps) you can tell the foam is pretty dense and not "pillow-y". It is kind of like a yoga or exercise mat. I guess if I am desperate I can cut up a yoga mat, but I wanted to see if anyone knew where I could actually buy that kind of foam & see if it’s cheaper than a $25 yoga mat. Any info would be great, thanks!

Buy a Pelican replacement foam. I have a Pelican case, it’s about 15 years old now
and the foam is still in great shape. eBay it and there’s some good deals on the
$25-$30 range.
