I've read tons of reviews saying how comfortable those cans are, but when I got them I was disappointed.
They're not as comfortable as my cousin's Beats Studio
Sure they're light but the velour pads combining with the clamping force are kinda hard on my jaw and cheek.
I've never heard anyone having the same problem.
Note that I have a heart shaped head and I'm pretty slender.

I don't think the point of the pads are to be squishy soft, but enough that it sits around your ears without much pressure. Personally, I find the HD 598 to be the most comfortable headphones I have tried, but everyone has their own opinion and experiences.

Maybe put some Beats pads on your DT990 & HD598.
 
Very best,
