You can buy shoulder pads but they can be quite expensive. I've found that if you buy the fabrics, its quicker and cheaper to make your own.You only need felt (available from most craft and haberdashery shops) and wadding
Two layers of felt; a top and under layer (this one is slightly smaller), with three layers of graded wadding or batting in between. Rows of handsewn backstitches secure them all together through the middle. I also run a loose running stitch around the outer edges too.
Patterns for the shoulder pad shapes are widely available for free online. I think i found mine on pinterest :)
