REPAIRING torn Jabra Evolve ear pads (How to)

[@Yusekov1]

Thanks a lot for the hints! There was 1 set original replacement part in the box, but had no clue how to replace them. Now I managed to replace - of course will glue the old ones...

I suggest sewing instead of glueing - worked pretty well for me :-) fast and reliable

Good option this one thanks

I had the same problem with my JBL headphones. Its a shame they definitely designed it to fail. I paid 200 € and after only one month it looked like this. My over 10 yrs old 25 € headphones never had that problem. They used strong leather and made it bigger to overlap. Edit: I buyed new ear pads, online for 23 € and changed it. Worked very well. Fixed

Thanks for the inspiration :). I think it is actually easier if you glue them inside out. Try to add as little glue as possible, otherwise you'll have a hard time turning them back around... If you start with a drop of glue halfway around the loose segment and repeat this a number of times in a row towards both sides, you can try and shrink it back together. This way you'll avoid the loop in the end. Edit: After all, the only way to fix this permanently is to sew the leather to the ring...

Thank you for the instructions, it work exactly as advertised 🙂. To put he repaired jacket back on was a bit fight with it, but bit by bit I did it. Great! thank you.

I am having this problem too and will glue them on. Thanks for the tip!

[@RaizuYT-vb5sv]

Awesome thanks! I repaired mine this way.

It seems like this is designed to fail, the overlap is so tiny, and it doesn't need to be at all. I was just trying to fix mine. I don't see any glue residue, I think the parts were heat welded ... so I got a hot iron, stretched the elastic/rubber part over a rigid cylinder (a drinking glass with some painters tape on it). I basically had the cushion inside out then on the end of my former (the drinking glass). It worked in that the parts were heat-welded together, the rubber/elastic melted into the fabric of the ear-cushion cover. However, the elasticity was ruined by the heat and so the ear-cushion cover is really-really sloppy. It still sort of fitted on, enough to use ... seems you had more success gluing it. I didn't glue it as I felt it needed a strong but elasticated glue, maybe rubber cement (as used for bike-tyre inner tubes) might work well? Good effort, thanks for sharing.

Exactly what I needed! Thank you

[@davepattison5672]

Worked for me, I didnt do it as neatly but good enough

[@vutanphuoc6325]

[@mfurkanzengin]

Thank you very much. I fixed the same way you showed on video

[@sreejithkumar8942]

Really helpful. Thanks a lot

[@ignacbonifac206]

3 weeks ago the same problem after 4 years

[@somashekarkg6093]

thank you ! it worked :)

[@bbnCRLB]

You should have stretched the rubber while applying the glue to avoid the overlaps.

[@peterbackgren4595]

Glued without taking them off before discovering this, way easier your way.

[@balaji3229]

Mediocre quality of cushion from Jabra, inspite of heavy pricing

[@elmagiza]

all the colleagues have the same problem

[@Tenryuu19]

It isn't the perfect way, but it's good enough to revive them for a while

[@MegaSafetyFirst]

Right, eventually they have to be replaced.
