WC Freeze Blackshark V2 Pro Cooling Gel Wicked Cushions Red Camo

I normally love these Wicked Cushions but the set I got for my Razer Blackshark V2 pros (Newest edition), don't seem to actually be "Cooling" just like the ones I have for my hyperX cloud 3s. Other than that still amazing, just kinda let down!

Extremely comfortable and nice and cool!

These are great! Installation was super easy and they have thicker padding, which keeps my ears from hitting the driver grill. The noise isolation is better thanks to the squishy foam and greater clamping force. They stay on better too. The blacksharks get HOT, and the cooling foam really helps during long meetings. Thanks!!

The ear space is slightly smaller than the stock pads, they are deeper, but the slightly smaller diameter opening makes the seam of the inner/outer material rub against the ear which is very uncomfortable after a short time. I have used the arctis nova freeze pads in the past and they were amazing, but these razer blackshark 2023 freeze pads are over-all a disappointment. The build quality just isn't as good, the freeze gel layering seems to be thinner than in the past, so the cooling effect isn't as pronounced. The fabric also does not breathe as much as the stock pads, so heat buildup becomes more noticeable over time. They DO however offer significantly more sound isolation, which may or may not be desirable. I even had a replacement pair sent to me thinking the ... MoreThe ear space is slightly smaller than the stock pads, they are deeper, but the slightly smaller diameter opening makes the seam of the inner/outer material rub against the ear which is very uncomfortable after a short time.

I even had a replacement pair sent to me thinking the first set was defective, and while I still think they were, the improvement wasn't enough to really make me want to use them over the stock pads after trying them out for 2 weeks. Switching back to stock pads is an instant relief for my sore ears, just wish they had better padding. The lack of a pocket for the ear to go into, and the abrasive stitching makes these a no go for me. Maybe for someone with very small ears or even larger ears would be fine, setting on top of the ear is okay, just cramming it inside is not. Don't think I will bother with refunding, as I don't want to deal with shipping them back, but I wanted to at least try and give input on how to improve them for next time. 3/5, maybe try again after a re-design.

The original earcups were too shallow and so the edge of my ear was rubbing on the driver, these were definitely a remedy for that issue. I have only had them for one day, but ive been wearing them relatively comfortably for about 9 hours on and off. The cooling gel is nice but they definitely get warmer over time than the original because of the PU leather. The sizing for the ears is also slightly smaller than original it feels, it hasn't been a huge issue but my left ear has required me to adjust it a couple of times today. The material touching my skin is still very soft and non irritating (At least to me). Overall a 4/5 for me personally. Its a massive comfort increase over the original. To be 5/5 I personally would like a full fabric cup (Even if it meant no ... MoreThe original earcups were too shallow and so the edge of my ear was rubbing on the driver, these were definitely a remedy for that issue.

To be 5/5 I personally would like a full fabric cup (Even if it meant no cooling gel) and a bigger ear cut out. I still highly reccommend them as an upgrade over original in my case.

I bought these for a friend and he loves them. Thanks for creating an awesome product!
