You can get closed cell sleeping pads at most camping/backpacking/outdoor 
stores,
there will be more than enough to do the job. Lots of times hardware/variety 
stores
with camping sections have these pads for well under $10.00.

After doing a ton of research on bags I am seriously considering buying some 
Domke
inserts or making inserts myself and using them in a cycling messenger bag.
