Yeah that's my main gripe about the velours. They feel like two rings of hard foam. I would stretch, but then I worry it might make it so the headphone gets looser and heavier feeling.
Squishy earpads with lots of give would be best, but then I start worrying about them deforming over time.
If you can optimize both, then there is no discomfort other than possibly the weight for some people.
Speaking of earpads, I find that the J$ earpads do inherently give more clamp because they are thicker, however the feel is nicer because they have ultrasoft foam and lambskin so it feels like two pillows rather than two rings of hard foam.
