I have the same frame, and it's a good thing that you're replacing those less than worthless pads.

I first put in the black WV wraparounds. It was a bit of a struggle to mate up the holes and the velcro straps, but I made it work. What first struck we was how much closer the mask seemed to my face. Then I was have trouble with my hat staying on my head upon mask removal.

I then swapped out the pads with regular, tan WV doe skin. That made all the difference. It fit my face better, fit the frame better, and put more padding between me and the frame. And my hats stay on my dome.

I then put wraparounds in a Davis featherweight frame, and that seemed to work a whole lot better.

But everyone's head is shaped differently. So what works for me may not work for anyone else.

I would recommend these, Gerry Davis Sports: Amara Wrap-Around Pads. They have worked very well for me.
