WC HeadbandZ Arctis Nova - Upgraded Silicone Headband for Arctis Nova Headsets by Wicked Cushions - Enhanced Flexibility, Comfort, and Style with Matching Earpad Designs| Black

This headband looks great! The black camo design gives my headset a cleaner, more modern look, and it matches well with the rest of the gear. The silicone material feels durable, is easy to wipe clean, and offers a comfortable fit during long sessions.The only minor hiccup was installation the first time. The silicone was stiff enough that it took a bit of effort to push onto the pegs. Once it’s on, though, it pops on and off much more easily for cleaning or swapping. A light pre‑stretch of the punch holes before fitting can make that first install smoother.Overall, it’s a stylish, comfortable upgrade that’s low‑maintenance and adds a bit of personality to the headset.

Delivered within 9 days without damage in the Philippines.Build quality is good, soft silicone. Longer compared to stock but still won't hit the top headband. Very comfortable, no discomfort after hours of use. This material I think won't absorb odors. The only downside is dust and lint seems to stick quite easily to the headband.The issue I had with the stock headband is I feel discomfort at the top of my head after a bit of time. I think the headband gets stretched quite a bit because there is not a lot of adjustment available with the Nova 5.I didn't have a hard time during installation. Just line up the hole then use 2 fingers at opposite sides so it goes in (giggity). Long nails not needed.When it comes to value, It is of good quality but I don't really think it is worth it considering there are also other cheaper headbands available in our market. I just bought this one because of the free shipping requirement since I also bought the StealthZ Earpads, so there's some value there.

Honestly its great my only gripe is it is a pain to get on. Other than that it feels comfortable.

Fits as described. More comfortable and cooler. Makes my headset look not as plain.

Let's start with the bad reviews of installation. If you can tie your shoes then you should be able to install the band to your headset. If not here's a trick that I used, a butter knife, the top side, just to help seat it. Easy peazy!Second, these bands I feel are by far way more comfortable, plus they look great. Just had it a few days now but it's great. Fantastic upgrade.

Must have for me has been lasting well added more comfort and allows for more head room when first applying to head can be abit trick but definately atays in place better i dont see my headband coming loose or off one of the wholes like the stock steel series band also over prolonged used it hasnt stretched out like my stock one did

After watching the instructional video, it was super easy to replace the old band with this one. I also appreciate how difficult it was to get on tbh, because that means it won't detach easily. The OEM one I have is older and worn, and tends to unhook itself as I take it off, which gets pretty annoying. Love that this is silicon too and easier to clean!

I bought this replacement headband for my SteelSeries Arctis Nova Pro Wired headset, and it’s been nothing but a headache. During a Premier CS2 match, the headband disconnected the moment I put my headset back on. I had to scramble in the middle of the game trying to fix it, completely throwing off my focus and almost costing me the match.A premium headset accessory should be reliable, but this headband just isn’t. It disconnects far too easily, and that makes it unusable for competitive gaming where consistency is critical. I expected an upgrade in comfort and durability, but instead, it turned into a weak point that ruined the experience.If you’re a serious gamer, I strongly recommend avoiding this product.
