I tried a lot of ear pads with these vintage DT880.
The ones that looks and feels the most like the original pads are some German Maestro ear pads. They are number 41-6051 from their webshop
Used on the GMP 250 and GMP 8.300 D.
The sound with these pads is amazing. Deep bass, great mids and a superb treble retrieval.
And a soundstage to die for.
A modern DT880 will only win on refinement and transparency, but loses on PRaT, musicality and coherency IMO.
In the picture the one on the right is the original pad, the one on the left the GMP pad.
