I've had my Sony WH-1000XM3 headphones since 2018. These are my daily go to headphones. Unfortunately, this year the ear pads started to peel off and look very worn out. I was worried I'd have to buy a whole new set of headphones. Luckily, I found these replacement pads on here! I was worried about the installation, but the package came with a tool and instructions that were very easy to follow. I was able to take out the old ear pads and install the new ear pads under 5 minutes. The actual replacement ear pads are identical to the original Sony ones. You can't even tell the difference. The replacement ear pads have great adhesive quality, they do not feel cheap they feel firm and stiff. My headphones feel brand new now, they fit snug and do not cause any irritation. The replacement ear pads look and feel brand new. The replacement ear pads function well, they have not affected any of the noise canceling function of the headphones. They fit snug on my ears. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who has these headphones. I will be buying a few more to stock up on for the future.

great replacement! easy to install and looks brand new! it feels better on the ears and still has good noise cancelling, the thickness is plump, nice and soft!

These are really great quality and super easy to install.Only thing to note is that they are a little firmer than the originals, so I find them slightly less comfortable, but this is quite minor.

These replacement earpads feel significantly better than the original OEM ones. Installation was a breeze, it took me less than 5 minutes thanks to the included tools. I’ve been using them daily for 5–8 hours over the past month, and the quality is still holding up perfectly.If you’re someone who wears headphones non-stop like me, these are definitely worth the buy. Comfortable, durable, and a great upgrade for your headphones!

These are nice and cushy earpads, and they've definitely restored quite a bit of noise isolation to my XM3s, which were getting less and less isolating as the foam of the original earpads slowly flattened. Installation is pretty easy with the included tools.The main catch to these is that they are substantially warmer on my ears than the OEM earpads. It seems like the material just doesn't breathe as well as the original pads did. If you can get past that, these are a good set of replacements.

I've had my WH1000XM3 headphones for ~6.5yrs (purchased Jan'19). I wear them while working at my desk and they're with me on every trip we take (we travel quite a bit). They continue to work well so I had no reason to replace them but the pads had gotten worn out.I purchased these and it took me ~3mins to remove the stock pads and replace them (the difference in the pics is 4 mins). They are a bit more stiff but I assume that mine were just worn out from age, and I can feel a difference in the seal around my ears immediately.I imagine I'll need a new set of headphones before these wear out (if they're anything like the stock pads) but even if they only last a year or two, I would certainly buy them again.

First part had a manufacturing defect they stood by it. Works great otherwise. Didn't align right. Second one was ok.I'll try to address the concerns i had. I needed new pads but really didn't want to mess up a good thing.- anc -- the same/close/not impacted much-comfort-- needs beak inThey feel better than the original after break in, to me it didn't start that way. I'd had to put about 20-30 hours in. They soften up and then leveled off. After about a month or so they are as soft as the original but a touch springier. This brought the anc up after they softendI tried several here was my experience: I tried a-b testing with an air filter it produces about 78 db of soundThe test productsBrainwavzTheseoriginalwicked cushionResultsBrainwavzanc really badcomfort goodquality/look goodThesequality ok not horrible.anc fantastic (virtual tie)comfort fantastic (best)originalquality good but they don't hold up so durability is an issues they flatten out over time.anc fantastic (virtual tie)comfort fantastic (good)wicked cushionsquality pretty amazing. I think it beats the originalanc unfortunately not quite as good as these or the original. I can but not as bad as the brianwaves.comfort, feel really good, but more airy.My testing anc:The easiest test when you compare these i found (since ab testing takes time) is to push he headphones down to increase the clamp. when they are tight that is effectively as good as it will get while wearing different pads you can measure the delta in their specific pad default state. they all sound about the same with different pads then when depressed basically. And depressing always makes improvements. The originals and these have about the same amount of difference or maybe to be safe a very very small amount worse with these, and i can't promise it isn't me imaging it. Brainwavz you you can tell immediately tell are worse. I was careful with the fit; i spent hours on this. I"d go with these out of the ones i've tried.Brainwavz uses a nicer material /fake leather, they look and fit perfect, but impacted anc.To me none of these really impacted sound quality. they are all close enough to the originals in dimensions.I think wicked cushion might look and feel the best to the touch, and definable has high quality material.These are made with thinker (not high) in width foam though and likely that is why there is additional material so your getting a better seal, especially after a week or two when they soften up.My asks for these since they are my recommendation:I wish the skin was a little higher quality though i have to admit it feels really good. will update if there are problems, but it's thing and i am almost expecting it will wear over time maybe if they made them a little wider (out and a bigger flat surface area that contacts skin they could be even a little better too.I believe you'll be happy with these. Best option i can find so far. I'm sticking with these over the original and i spent an absurd amount of time on this. I prioritize anc, if you don't you might want to try wicked cushion. They aren't bad and they are built so well, but i could detect a reduction in anc. I also like the feel on the additional foam. If you prefer an airy no touch feel that's wicked cushion. If you need foam inserts brainwavez has those. but the pads just didn't block out soundBy the way i wear glasses, so i test with that. this makes pads even more important which is why i am so sensitive about seal.

Fit nicely. Nice padding.
