Recommend me some headphones

I have DH old Beats headphones and they are comfy but I keep breaking them by folding them wrong.
He got me a modular pair by Aiai which sounds like a bird call, but the on/off button was a bit fiddly so they have gone back.
I have gone back and forth on trying some bone conduction ones but I think I want some regular over ear. Not bothered about noise cancelling but they must be comfortable and me-proof.
Budget in the £100-150 range.
I've resigned myself to trying on at home at the last time we tried a shop they wouldn't let us open the box (JL, your electronics floor needs a massive makeover and an attitude change).

I got a pair on Amazon two years ago and they're brilliant. I didn't think they'd last but still going strong. They were honestly no more than £20.

Do you know the brand/specs? Thanks

I have OpenMove by Shokz. They're really good. Lightweight and sturdy. Great for running.

We have the Anker Soundcore ones. I'm not sure of the model and they're a few years old now but they were around £70 when we got them. Great for noise cancellation on trains and planes. Good battery life, and not so expensive that I'm worried about them!
