Question: Are these genuine leather?
Document: Excellent choice for replacing the old leather pads. I have started a program of monthly conditioning and cleaning to make these last longer.
Ordered from Soundprofessionals (Which is who I ordered my M50s from originally). These are genuine Audio Technica pads and worked wonderfully to replace my old pads that were getting hard and cracked.
works good. my original m50 earpads started cracking and whatnot from being sweated on. so i replaced them with these. been wearing them sub-moderately to listen to music. i still sweat just as much (or even less), and the pads still look good. so signs of cracking or wear-n-tear yet
way more soft n comfortable den the originals
made my cardboard-esque pads for my ath-m50 's feel better than new.
Very nice and cushioned. Makes wearing my ath-m50 so much better. Just ahve to see how long till they flake
They fit the M50 fairly well. They are a lot softer than my old cracked set soooo not bad. It is a lot better option than buying new headphones.
They fit Audio Technica's cans fine but they are not quite OEM. My ears hurt a half hour after wearing them, they don't provide enough comfort and press on the ear some (not around). I would not buy again. I would look for another one or just buy a new set of headphones.
These work great. Add a little extra comfort for those hellish days in the cubicle. If you have some other items on your wish list you may want to throw money down on that. These add comfort but the difference isn't night or day for me. I have a large head btw.
These things tend to flatten after a few months for me, probably because I wear them to sleep and other bad stuff. Replacement pads are cheap and only a little difficult to fit on, but they're so squishy it doesn't even matter
Answer: no, they are quite soft though. I've had mine for about a year now and they have started to crack and become rough. it's by no means unbearable but it's not the same as the stock m50 ear pads
