If you make using a case habitual, durability is less of an issue. the sennheiser hd25 is the classic that i personally think fits your description, in that they're relatively light and small lighter than something like beyerdynamic studio cans. https://www.thomann.de/gb/search_dir.html?sw=sennheiser hd25&smcs=face49_3694 . otherwise i like audio-technica ath e70 as lowish mid priced in-ears that are fairly well balanced. much more portable therefore than over-ear cans albeit slightly more faffy to ravel and unravel relative to taking out and putting away cased over-ears. also, i've mentioned elsewhere, the kz-zs10 are a ridiculous bargain, slightly smiley, IE i wouldnt finish a mix with them, but i can afford to buy 3 pairs and lose them occasionally.
thnx Bruques!
KOSS porta pro!!!
thnx Sevenape:)
those look also very interesting.
I have Beyerdynamic DT-770 Pro
and these are not usable in the summer.
At all...
Grado headphones - I have the SR80x but pretty sure all their stuff is good so depends on your budget. Maybe bigger than what you’re looking for, but won’t make your ears sweat and have fantastic sound quality (not heavy bass, good for aging ears) and wide sound stage. Open design, so obviously not going to get much passive noise canceling.
thanks Gav.
checking Grado
( other friends recommended these too
If you need closed headphones for sound isolation then the Sennheiser HD25 is a hard-wearing classic. Every part is replaceable, and they are very reliable. They have a fun thumpy bass and well-defined highs, not quite neutral sounding but definitely great to listen to.
Koss Porta-Pros are another classic, they're semi-open so won't isolate as well as the HD25s, and they're not so good outdoors or in conditions where ambient noise is high.
The Grados are open headphones, so again not isolating. Their sound signature is much brighter than the other two suggestions. Very detailed but not as bassy as the others.
If you prefer brighter headphones go for the Grados, if you prefer something warmer the Koss has more mid-bass. If it was me I would choose the Senn HD25s, for the isolation and IMO more neutral sound (compared to the other two, not compared to truly neutral cans of course).
Another vote for these. I use mine all the time for music making. They’re very open too, so your ears stay cool, and you never feel cut off from your surroundings. You won’t be using them on a train or plane though.
I bought these when I had a ear infection . I could not wear earbuds but I still wanted to listen to podcast while walking.
I use them all the time. They are light, sound good and are super cheap.

Thanks Ecou and all that helped with great suggestions.
I'll decide in this wknd.
I use these JVC Flats all the time. One thing I like about them is the comfort of the earpad covers. This was the only small, inexpensive pair I could find at the time that didn't use that scratchy panty hose style fabric to cover the ear pads. These are very comfortable, sound surprisingly good, and are $10.
Yes I am going to order a second pair to leave at work.
Slightly different approach but Toneboosters has TB Morphit to correct all kinds of different headphones Including the apple ones… just a thought.
I use Morphit all the time. Great software but it won't help the OP sweaty ears in summer.
Thank you @sevenape, I was desperate for something like this. 🤩
I use a pair of Sony MDR-V150 DJ/monitor headphones when doing casual listening. Cheap and lightweight. When making music with just my iPad on the couch, I couple them with TB Morphit and actually get very good results compared to my other dedicated monitor headphones from Audio Technica.
