The alcantara pads on my workhorse HD800s are rotten and I'd love to replace them.  Over the years I've always been able to buy spare parts directly from Sennheiser, but no distributor seems to carry them for shipping to the U.S. at the moment.  I don't want to ruin these by putting aftermarket Beyerdynamic pads or whatever on them, I just want to pay Sennheiser an ugly markup for parts they apparently no longer want to keep in stock.  Does anyone have a line on a real supplier for these?

These seem to ship worldwide:

Thanks, Birgir!  Grabbed two sets and a new headband.

Congrats!

That's sad to hear about the distribution problem... I bought spare pads for my Sennheiser HD 599 (from Sennheiser directly) for exactly that reason.
