I said that I made my headstrap, not that I kept it . 

I don't know if you're being cynical when you say that you would have bought it for $5. If you are, I understand a companies need to add all the process costs, but a leather strap for $ 1 0 0 is too much.

If not, I will go rummaging in my d&c lab bin to see if the strap is still there and I will gift it for you. 

I would have to agree. While I did buy the headband there is no way it was worth what they are asking. Put the headband in one hand and a hundrend dollar bill in the other and if you think they are the same then think again. Then I guess the guy who was selling the JMoney headbands which I bought one of should have been selling for 150.00$ No they were under 50$ and made very well not that thess arent made well just not worth 100$ I do believe 50$ would have been alot more in line with what would be fair seeing how the only ones who would be buying them are those who already spent 900$ plus on the headphones.

The main thing is, the original headband is very comfortable to begin with, in my subjective opinion.

That's very nice of you to have a look :-)

At the moment, I think $100 is a bit pricey, since my foam headband is like new despite months of use and very comfortable - but I would like to have a leather wrap-around to use when friends want to try it - and to try it in the recording studio. I don't mind my own hair getting stuck in the foam, but the hair from other people, as well as their hair products.... not so attractive....

A (reasonably) cheap (easily removable) leather wrap for the foam headband woud be excellent.

100 bucks is a lot, i think i am gonna diy a headband to "personalize" my headphone, i think this will exceed the cool factor of a leather headband, and hopefully comfort.

im interested in DIY-ing my own headband as well. I have no idea how though. Im not sure what is a comfortable stuffing material. Does anybody have tutorials or guides for headband DIY? :D
