I also bought some from Amazon (or Ebay). The first pair were covered in pleather but weren't anywhere near as soft and conforming as the originals. The second pair are plush which is btter but still not as soft as the originals.
I note that Canford Audio sells the genuine article fro £16.12 each. See here:

I might see about a pair soon.

The original ear pads on my 7506s only lasted a few years. Got these as replacements and like them much more than the original, they are soft velour. But they have a few other versions - click on the buttons under "style". https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/886945-REG/Auray_epd_mdr7506_Deluxe_Velour_Earpads_Pair.html/BI/2855/KBID/3801

Good info for the next time I need to replace the pads. Thanks both.
