I've come to learn that most headphones cost the same and are often made in the same factories- but different brands/specs.
The best headphones I've ever had were $20 Sony on-ear headphones with battery-powered noise canceling that had that faux leather cushion thing that cuped my ears.
After that, it was Skullcandy. I'm too poor for legit Bose.
these JBLs were on sale at costco.
downside is a lot of these things are closed back, which is good for noise blocking, but contributes to heating up your head.
