SteelSeries Arctis Nova 1 / 1X / 1P Ear Pads – Replacement Cushions

🎧 SteelSeries Arctis Nova 1 / 1X / 1P Ear Pads – Replacement Cushions (With or Without Headband)

Refresh your headset with these replacement ear pads compatible with SteelSeries Arctis Nova 1, Nova 1X and Nova 1P. Designed for gaming and daily use, they help restore comfort, ear support and a clean headset look when original cushions become worn.

These compatible cushions are commonly made with memory foam and breathable fabric or PU leather, depending on the version, to improve comfort during long play sessions. Many aftermarket models list direct compatibility with Nova 1 / 1P / 1X and use mesh-style fabric or cooling materials for better airflow. 

Choose ear pads only or a version with headband cushion for a complete refresh. Compatible replacement headbands also exist for the Arctis Nova range when the top band is worn.
