Headphones advice please
I need some advice on headphones, please. I want to get my daughter some decent ones for Christmas, the kind you put over your head, not the ones that go in your ears. However, I know nothing about them. What’s some good ones for someone who just wants to walk around listening to indie and 60s music on Spotify?
I’m looking to spend, I don’t know, is $300-$400 enough for something good? Headphones could be eleventy billion dollarbucks for all I know.

These Sennheisers review extremely well and make all of the "Best Budget-Friendly" lists.

I'll throw my support behind the weird ear brigade. There is such a wide variety of every other body structure, and our ear canals are supposed to be one size fits all? Get outta here.
Yea I got my Bose headphones because I used to fly a decent amount (haha remember that!!) and noise cancellation is key for making a flight less shitty. They are pretty lightweight and don't get too warm when wearing for multiple hours.
I probably would have gone for something cheaper if not for travel.
I am classed as an essential worker and my office is still open, so is it bad if I sneak in super early and pick them up, do you reckon? What would you do? WHAT WOULD SWIZZBOLD DO???
Unlikely - she’s not a techie person so basically if she can hear her music and they don’t hurt her ears she’ll be happy with them. I went with them in the end because the Sennheisers (which I was leaning toward) had a lot of reviews saying they weren’t very comfortable, and the comfort was mentioned positively in a lot of the Bose reviews.
