Worth Legit Pitcher's Mask - Padding?

Has anyone here replaced the interior head padding on the worth legit pitcher's mask? I've had it for a couple seasons now, and thanks to my sweaty cranium, the padding is showing signs that it may start to go in the near future.

Does Worth sell a replacement kit? Or, does anyone have a good lead on where I might find suitable padding to make my own? Like if I could find a square sheet of similar padding I'd have no issues just cutting my own.

Maybe just buy a sweatband and cut it up and sew / glue it to the inside where is feels most comfortable?

Yup, that'd likely do the trick. Thanks!

Worth does not sell replacement padding for their Worth helmet. Viper and Easton hellcat don't sell replacement pads for their helmet as well.

Which is absolutely ridiculous. My viper helmet is in perfect shape except that some of the padding plastic is wearing off. I wish I could just replace a couple of the pads, but nobody sells replacements.

Since replacing pads are cheap to sell and viper/shcutt want to makes more profit, so they want you to buy the whole new helmet.

Oh I understand, but it's still ridiculous.

The fabric part of my Schutt ST1 forehead pad fell off, leaving just the foam and adhesive. I cut old t-shirts and stuff it in the helmet as a sweat liner. I try to switch it out every game to keep my head clean.
