10 years ago, I would have answered: Sennheiser HD 280. They are comfortable, portable, and the thick pads offer semi noise-cancelling capabilities. I loved the fact that they faithfully reproduced the audio spectrum as the artist intended with their music.
Today, I can’t be anywhere without Airpod Pros. They are simply superb. Music sounds incredible on them, without excessive bass tones. Active noise cancelling is excellent. The user interface is sublime and intuitive. I only wish the battery life were a bit longer, but is sufficient for 95% of use cases
