Impedance only matters when your transmission length becomes comparable or especially when it exceeds the wavelength at which point it is considered a resistor equal to the characteristic impedance as seen by the source; otherwise your cable acts as lumped capacitance/inductance as seen by the source, and your shield is there exactly for that - to provide shielding.
Thanks morzh! I decided this was probably the case and bought some of this from Digi-Key: https://www.digikey.com/product-detail/e...ND/5270188
