My favourite solution on the SR60 is Geekria Comfort pads with the Jarmor covers, as linked above. The pads fit perfectly, sound is improved vs. the various pads I've tried, and they are easily the most comfortable headphones I've ever worn. To install, it's best to remove the pads and mount the covers on the pads, then mount the pads on the cups. There is no sagging or wrinkles, which I believe would be the case with Hemp pads as well.You might want to try these covers to solve the scratchy problem:

I use them on my L pads (slightly bigger). They make a smaller size which might fit the pads that come with the Hemp.
You could also try the following pads:

These are more comfortable (no irritation) and they don't change the signature too much.
I'm not a fan of Grado, or third-party, G pads on my SR60 or GH4. The sound is quite flawed due to excessive sibilance. EQ may help but I don't use EQ and don't want to, with my Grados or Beyerdynamic DT 1990. The GH4 is best as designed; Grado L pads, no Jarmor covers.
