Do we have the replacement for gelpad around headband as well ?
Having just replaced the cushions on mine, I'd just make 3 comments -
1. These cushions are way better than the originals, great work.
2. The level of butt clenching fear I felt when sliding a knife into my Sony Headphones was incredible, and
3. It is worth emphasising that you don't need to put the knife in very far to pop the clips.
Thank you for the feedback!
And yes, the knife is just a little leverage
Holy moly, the difference between these and the originals is significant. The extra depth makes it a better fit around my ears. Also, I just realised that after 3 years of usage, the noise cancelling wasn't as good as it was supposed to be. With a change in cushion, they feel brand new again.
Nice job!
Glad to hear that!
Just received mine from Amazon. I was surprised how much the deterioration of the old original pads affected noise cancelling. Mine were starting to flake and weren't cancelling out much. After putting these new ones on and trying them it was the same feeling as putting on a new pair and being deaf. I like that they are deeper, resulting in less ear fatigue too.
I am so happy you like them! thank you so much for trying us out
And man do these things get grocky quickly if you operate anywhere other than indoors in a cold dry bunker (e.g. they degrade quickly if used anywhere you might sweat, i.e. anywhere outside/warm - hard lessons from the summer)
Here after a few years, but man, was this needed. A few years of heavy use didn't leave the old cushions in pretty shape. As others have said, feels like new. Thank you for the easy tutorial! (and showing it's possible without super fancy tools 😄)
Glad we could help!
Just received mine and I love them! I ordered directly from your website. I was wondering where to get replacements when I saw one of your ads on a You tube channel my husband was watching. I ordered them immediately and am so impressed. Great product, great service!
Glad you like them!
wow, thanks it was driving me nuts how you replace them, now to get some better cushions!
You're welcome!
Incredible,
The noice canceling became 100% better with these.
Thanks WC! You rock!
You're welcome!
Thanks for making these! Was able to give my headphones a new lease on life
My pleausre!
Thank you my dude, short precise and to the point.
2nd replacement in 7 years, forgot if i remembered correctly how to do it.
Glad the video helped! Sounds like your headphones have had a good run.
Thanks, if i had carried on as i had started i was going to tear the cushion from the clip i think, so you saved me a massive headache
You are welcome!
Awesome simple and straight forward instructions !
And also HUGE kudos to Sony for making their product THIS is to repair, at least for basics like this!
It's really great that I'm gonna be able to keep those awesome headphones for long years again, and I know I'll buy their headphones again when they'll eventually give up one day.
Also, I always recommend the XM4 to my friends when they ask me for a headphone to buy, and that's, again, a reason for me to recommend Sony's headphones :)
We’re glad you found the instructions helpful 🙌
Just put mine in, they were pretty easy to install, thanks!
I am glad to hear that!
What's the comfort like?
@@kapilbusawah7169 Theyre not exactly the same quality as the original leather but I can't tell the difference at all when wearing them tbh
Many thanks I bought a par of replacement Ear Pads and now according your support I know I do it
Glad I could help!
Thanks!! It helped me a lot and prevents me from breaking them.
Glad I can help!
Bro thanks! I just replaced mine and your vid is a life saver
Glad it helped
Helped my boyfriend install the replacements I bought him; thanks!
You are welcome!
Giving some new life to my years old Sony headphones without having to shell out hundreds to upgrade. Thanks!
You welcome!
Are you going to make pads for the XM4 or do these pads fit?
This will not fit your Sony XM4. We'll consider it.
@@WickedCushions Waiting for the xm4 one if you make it
@@brazghost We are working on them :)
@@WickedCushions i came here looking for the XM4 replacement pads
@@romis245 still working on them.
Ordered mine today off Amazon. Replaced my Bose OE2 earpads with a velour and plether version type a year ago. Love em.
Glad to hear that!
amazing , ordered today here tomorrow. pray i dont F up the taking out old and putting back new.
You won't! enjoy them
Hi! Thanks for the video and the easy to find spares. What size sweat covers work with XM3 pads?
The one's on our website that say XM3 on them
Sweet video man. Thank you!
You're welcome!

How to clean the foam part of the cushions?
@@randomnobodyplaythrough Hey , thank you for contacting us.
I suggest you use
1. Clorox Disinfecting Wipes / Cottonelle ( or any other brand ) Baby wipes. Clorox wipes have been proved to both remove light smell and stains while keeping your ear pad color intact.
Also , please avoid using regular alcohol wipes because it will cause the color on your ear pad leather to come off.
2. Simple cleaning cloth (The ones you can find for cleaning sunglasses) - Simply to wipe off the ear pad after you have cleaned it with the Clorox wipe.
Hope this helps.
Will these be back in stock on your website soon?
They are, but not all colors
Thank you for the video, your included paperwork states that you put them in upside down, likely a printing error!
Our bad!
Thanks for the instruction, I got my AliExpress versions in super easy. Your pads look really good! Are you planning to sell EU mainland soon?
We already are selling in all EU through the local amazon marketplaces
TY. Ordered from Amazon to Finland.
Thank you for that!
Suomi! Did they work well? I fear that the sound isolations will not be as good.
Will this peel off as well overtime? My Sony XM3 pads are peeling off after just 2yrs and i barely use them.
I know is probably due to heat in Caribbean weather so i need to know if this is better…
Every cushion eventually peels away, its just a matter of care & amount of sweat that determines how fast.
Also, real leather cushions will peel away slower, but we are strongly against use of animal leather in our products
@@WickedCushions NO sweat at all. I barely used them and they are hanging on the Computer desk Open to Air.
@@WickedCushions good to know that so is it right to assume that you are using PU leather! i was just searching for this information!
Mine started to deteriorate quite fast after I started taking them to the gym. Now they are all mushy. =(
Can you clean them because I got some sauce on mine and I dont need to replace the whole thing
Try a clorox wipe
do you sell these in the silver color? I would love to get these pads but I don't think the black would look that good on my silver XM3s.
No we do not. Sorry. :(
@@WickedCushions is there any possibilities to get silver/beige ones now?
Thank you very much, bro. This video helped me.
Glad it helped!
Do they change the sound signature (much)?
Our new version does not change it at all
well no wonder I was struggling. the instructions that came with them tell me the exact opposite orientation is correct...
Were they from us?
how will they work with sweaty ears? i still have original pads since 3 years, and yes they became flat but since the beginning i had a problem with them that my ears become very sweaty
Sweat will ruin every ear pad known to mankind & these would be the same.
As for how sweaty your ears would be, they will still be sweaty
Is there a place to buy the foam that goes between the driver and the ear pad?
Not from us but some other companies sell It with their pads I think
Do you ship to Brazil? I cannot find the option on your website.
We do not currently, sorry :(
are they just as good as OEM? do they block less noise? some people on Amazon reviews say it doesn't isolate as well and that they flake after a few months. do you sell the gray color foam pad inside too? I been getting a hiss sometimes in right ear idk if it's cus my ears are touching driver or something or if foam pad inside or if ear pad is worn. ear pads kind of flat maybe and driver foam is kind of flat I think and almost has a hole in the middle. there's also a black cloth sticker that lost it's stickyness attach to the speaker metal. it's not your department but i need advice on how to keep it stuck on safely or if it's not a big deal. my original pads began falling apart less than 1 year. the cloth came unattached after trying to rinse ear dirt off it. the plastic insert holds the cloth edge using some kind of glue strip that lost it's stickyness. I tried to look for replacements and an article pointed to either originals which is allegedly from a Sony partner who wants to sell 1 pad side for almost $50 and foam driver pad for like $8. is that legit? wth? wicked coushin was listed as alternative 3rd party. I'm confused with differences and about quality .
Hey, we do not sell the grey foam.
As for our cushions, let me send you a free one to try and you see for yourself? Email me at or@wickedcushions.com
@@WickedCushions i emailed asking about the offer but i never recieved a response.
Will these fit in the M2s ?
They will not
Does the extra thickness effect how they fit into the original case?
It does not
does this method apply to the new sony xm4? Are the earcups on the xm4 easy to replace just like the xm3?
It is the same method, but not the same ear pads.
The XM4 ear pads are different.
@@WickedCushions wow thanks. Cant wait for the xm4 variant!
@@robotnic90 You're welcome!
@@robotnic90 Working on it!
Do you have these in velour by any chance? I find leather too uncomfortable.
Sorry but we don't have velour for this ear pads.
Its the earpads xm3 also fit on xm4 ?
No, our XM4 pads are 2 months away :0
Thank You!!
You're welcome!
hey can you guys make a velour pad for the xm4? my ears get sweaty ='((
We're working on XM4 ear pads but leather version for now.
@@WickedCushions why. make a velour please as my ears go super warm and humid and it causes a lot of problems.
do these affect the noise isolation?
If installed correctly, no :)
do you ship to the philippines? tnx
We do not through our website, but I think amazon.com ships there
i wanna purchase it will it last long fr 1yr
Yep
thanks👍
No problem 👍
Are you going to offer these for the wh-1000xm3 silver anytime soon?
When are you going to sellnit worlwide.
I am from India, haven't been able to find the replacement for Earpads for Sony 1000xm3
Hey, contact us at cs@wickedcushions.com so we can assist you further.
Always wonder why some ear pads like this and on the qc35 have mini folds around the edges, while the stock one for the xm3 has no such
We fixed the mini folds on our new version. :)
@@WickedCushions I thought that mini folds help support the foam to stay in shape better, just like those on the qc35 on the other side and 700 which is placed on the inner side.
How do I buy a new pair? Where is your website exactly?
Boom

Hi, what about the tissue part in the middle?
If there's too much ear wax on it?
Do I also use the same Wipes?
@@randomnobodyplaythrough Yes you may use the same wipes for it.
Hey guys, any ideas how to clean only the cloth part in the middle? everything else is fine with mine so it would be nice to not pay extra (bought them second hand)
I would suggest to clean the cloth part with clorox wipes, but make sure you remove the ear pad before you clean it.
Soak get a good soaked clorox wipe, and wipe it down with it.
Let it dry before you put the ear pad back on :)
I know, clorox is like gold these days, but hopefully you have some with you.
Hi, I bought recently a xm3 and I noticed that one of the internal tissue is a bit loosen. Is it normal, should I make a return?
It's normal. Mine is the same
@@doryfishbrain thanks!
Indeed normal
How to clean the foam part of the cushions?
will these fit for 1000x m2?
Not the one's in the video.
But these will

How much are these Ear Pads of Wicked Cushions ?
It's $22.95. You can check the ear pads here: wickedcushions.com/products/ear-pads-for-sony-wh1000-xm3
are ther any earpads that are taller because when i put my sony's on they touch my ears and its really uncomfortable
You mean thicker? Our ear pads are about 0.1 inch thicker than the original ones. Also, our foam is firmer so this may solve the problem.
Is it the same for xm4?
No, it's not. This will not fit the new Sony XM4 headphones.
@@WickedCushions thanks for the reply!
What about the top cushion, is that replaceable too?
It is but we do not deal with that / nor do we know how to replace
What about xb900n ?
Hey , unfortunately we do no have compatible ear pads for that particular headphones. Sorry.
Why is it next to impossible to find quality aftermarket ear pads for WH-1000XM4? Amazon only has ones to protect the ear pads, not cushions :(
Because it's a new model. We'll be working on one soon. :)
@@WickedCushions Keep me posted. :)
I'll be looking forward to it
Is wicked cushions manufacturing products in china?i got made in china product.Please help me
Yes we are
@@WickedCushions Thank you for your response.Bt they are not wide internally.i mean too narrow.my ears not fitting.In the video you have showed your pads,these are much wider than the product received by me from amazon.feeling discomfort.help me please
Nice, thanks. I had to open my headphones to glue back the magnet thingy =X
Glad I could help!
magnet thingy?
Can you just rip out the foam pad on the inside? Mine are tore up somehow
You mean the foam in the middle covering the driver? Are you using our ear pads?
Wicked Cushions yea that stuff and no I had ordered pads off amazon before I saw this video
@@madman12999 I suggest you keep them as is. It will bother you more if your ears will directly touch the drivers.
Wicked Cushions will I be able to take them out if I use your cushions?
@@madman12999 Even our cushion have them. They are there to avoid dust from getting into the driver. Also, it shouldn't affect the sounds of your headphones.
would be great if you actually shipped to me, tried to pre-order and was told you don't ship to my "zone" thanks...

How to clean the foam part of the cushions?
@@motorizedpedestrian
For foam or tissue?
Anyone find that the Wicked Cushions provide a better seal and isolation?
Hey Kites, I see that no one has answered so I will give you my subjective answer.
Some feel that it does, some feel that it does not.
One thing I can promise you is this:
If you do not feel that it does, you have 365 days to return them at whichever point you choose for a full refund.
Your pads doesn’t have a hole for the left sensor.
I think you have mixed up XM3 pads with XM4 pads. This video is for XM3 - which does NOT have a sensor.
Only the XM4 has a sensor, so I am assuming you bought the wrong earpads. If you contact us directly we can help you out.
ver ynice
Glad you liked it.
Amazon comments on these 3rd party replacement cushions say they peel or within weeks, the sound and the noise cancellation qualities change. Or is it just rubbish comments?
Like any PU leather earpads on the market, ours will eventually peel. However, with regular cleaning, you can slow down the process. We recommend using Clorox Disinfecting Wipes or baby wipes to remove light smells and stains while preserving the color. Avoid alcohol wipes, as they can damage the leather. After cleaning, you can gently wipe them with a simple cleaning cloth, like the ones used for sunglasses.
Since they’re made of PU leather, they focus on sound quality, though you might notice a slight change in sound.
great helpful video. good job getting a manicure for the video.
LOLLLL
Man, the main reason I went with Sony is because the sides of the cups weren’t pinched, I just think it looks ugly
What do you mean by pinched?
doesn't Sony charge like almost 50 dollars for *each side* or was I looking at a sus webpage ?
Excellent video. But hate the cushions. Really, I do. I cannot account for the positive reviews.
Hey Moi, if you are referring to our cushions that you hate, would love to hear more about that and whether you have tried our newest version / you are referring to the older one.
My email is or@wickedcushions.com hit me up
no replacement for the inner piece of cloth? renders this pretty useless then rofl
I am guessing you mean the inner piece FOAM, not cloth.
You do not have to replace that piece, why would it render it useless? you just keep the one you have over there, its only there to cover the speaker
