Daily Cleaning Protocol:
- Wipe earpads after use with a dry microfiber cloth.
- For skin oils, use a damp cloth with a mild soap solution (never use alcohol wipes, which dry out synthetic leather).
Earpad Replacement:
If earpads become worn, third-party replacement pads (Dekoni, Wicked Cushions) snap easily onto the ear cup plastic retention clips in under 2 minutes.
