Thanks man. I thought about getting the hook but, I’m a stand kinda man...lol. I was surprised it was so affordable too! If u do get it, u’ll love it.
 
I feel like I am happy with my original ear cushions. I may buy a new set in a year or two if my old ones start to fade.
 
I want lamb skin leather and in a darker colors like chestnut. I had the blue apms but they got too dirty. Attracted dust like a magnet. I have the space grey and would like an extra set of cushions. Dark red would be cool.

Do the blues get really dirty? I was wondering about that as I was torn between them and the space grey and figured that the space grey would be more resilient

Yes. Very dirty. I live in Arizona and after 2 days of wearing them they looked grey. I use them outdoors as well as inside. Wash my hair every other day and they still turned dirty. The head band even got dirty, the ear cushions were horrible. Ended up washing them and gifted to my brother. He immediately got them dirty. Has since bought the black cushions and a black headband cover. Would not get anything but space.

Thanks. That’s worth noting.

So I’ve changed my order to space grey and got a date of the 9th of March but within 10 minutes of placing the order it’s switched to preparing to ship and should be with me by Tuesday. If I don’t like them I will re-order the blue

For whats its worth I've had the blue for a week or two now without any issues. But then again I don't leave home with them. Just wear them hanging around the house.

I have 2 silver APM since launch. They are fine. No dirt on the white canopy. I don't wear hair products. I don't know what environment others put them in, but I just use them at home. For outside, that's where the APP and AP come in.
 
Green pads came in this morning. I dig.

I checked yesterday and all cushions are available for delivery. I ordered on Weds. and got them today. I am happy with them.

Got a pair of the official Apple "red/pink" cushions for my Sky Blue APMs. Got to say...this is definitely one way to make a $550 pair of headphones look like a kid's toy...😅

Definitely not a big fan of the color combo, but I'll keep this pair of cushions since I want 2 sets so I can keep using my APMs whenever I clean a pair of cushions and they are drying.

How do you clean your APM cushions?
 
Definitely need to replace these after a couple of months,,these tend to start smelling weird after they get wet several times of use,,,condensation becomes an issue

You forgot “I” or “for some”. I’ve had my Max’s for a good while now, I use them at least 2 hours each day, often more. My cushions does not smell weird at all.
