Wait, are you sure they were pleather?
 
The original D77's I had were real leather back in the day.  Super soft but they wore out.
 
The D66's I had were like a felt material.
 
The D22's I had were pleather.  Not nearly as soft/supple as the real leather of the D77 but built for durability.

Thats my mistake then, the pads on my phones were so worn, i couldn't tell what was on them, looks like worn out pleather though, but i am sure they had already been replaced.
 
Sadly i never owned or even saw a set of D77's from the day to know what the pads are made of.
 
Shame there isn't someone who can make decent quality replacements, a set of valor type pads on my d77's would be nice

Sorry to revive old thread, but answering my own question maybe other MDR-D77 owners would be interested.  Perhaps someone can help translate... i cannot find a email address or other contact.

They look quite nice, but unsure of price etc.

I just replaced mine by gambling that these Sennheiser pads would fit, and they do. Perfectly.

I too am unsure of the rules. If it's allowed though, I'd like to buy a pair of these from someone. Thanks!
