defean Headphone Protector Headband Fabric Compatible with Audio Technica M30 M40 M50 M50X M50S M40X Headphone

I'm a brain surgeon who enjoys listening to music while I operate. I've owned the AT M50X for several years and they have been absolute work horses, giving me aural pleasure through hundreds of complex surgeries and ultimately helping my patients.Unfortunately the material on the headband of the M50X seems prone to flaking (at least on my headphones). This caused some pretty awkward moments!For example, I was operating on a patient once and as I leaned forward to begin the closing procedure, a few flakes of M50X headband material fell into their brain! I tired to remove the material using clinical tweezers but it's really fiddly and kept breaking up.After this had happened about 36 times, I decided I needed to act and so purchased these headband covers.The cover was very easy to fit to the headphones although I admit I had to do some trial and error with the zip placement. Once fitted it feels extremely comfortable and 'good as new'. I am now proud to report that there has been a 100% reduction in material flakes in my patients brains.

Expensive headphones were looking scruffy around the headband. This replacement has made them ‘new’ again.

Nice fit for my Audio Technica m40x headphones, and replaced the flaking faux leather on the original headphones. Very easy to fit and prevents flaking faux leather from scattering over my head and elsewhere

Harder than the base leather but will protect, nice product

Simple product yet very useful. I used it without removing the foam from my headband, which does the job just the same, perhaps just doesn’t look as slick as the one in the photos.
