We present a novel strategy for the fabrication of ordered and flexible polymer‐based graphene foams by self‐assembly of graphene sheets on a 3D polymer skeleton. The obtained graphene foams show excellent mechanical, electrical, and hydrophobic properties, thus holding great potential as elastic conductors and oil‐water separators.
