Maybe Koss ESP950 earpads? They are like $5 straight from Koss. 

 

Probably be better off buying some foam, cutting them into a similar shape and stuff them under the earpad cushion on the inside. 

I dont really want the foam to be thicker I only want the pads to get thicker.

The only somewhat comfortable square headphone I know of is the Oppo PM-series. I guess you could get replacement pads meant for those, but they are pretty expensive: https://www.oppodigital.com/proddetail.asp?prod=LEP1

However, they might be too big for your purpose.

Yeah and I can't get those in EU.

Hmm, there is the B&W P-series. If memory serves right those use square pads aswell, and they should come in different sizes. 

You would have to get a bit creative in the way you mount them to your headphones, since they use a magnetic mounting system nativly.

 

I know you can get those pads in Denmark, since HiFiKlubben is a reseller of B&W gear.

Yeah if you have some foam or other soft material laying around the house, you could probably do the same.

 

I've tried it with my M30X (my personal messing around headphone) and the sound doesn't change much if at all, hopefully it'll be the same case with your's.

Well, that depends a lot on who you're asking. I usually say that I'm a bit from everywhere. 

But I am living in Denmark and it seems that Denmark will also be my final stop. Atleast, it has been my stop for 14 years.

 

Men jeg er vokset op med dansk, så jeg taler det da nogenlunde. Min accent har jeg dog svært ved at slippe.

 

Or maybe I am just from Troubleshooting. I'm still a bit undecided.
