If you are happy to have buds in your ears, I would recommend one of the in-ear types.
Their (passive) noise attenuation is similar to Bose or other ANR, but their light weight and price make them well worth looking at.
No more clamping force on your skull, no more bulk to carry around, no issues with seal around glasses, no more sweaty ears or itchy earlobes. But you need to be used to wearing buds.
I use Quiet Technologies' Halo and am very pleased with them (although I invested in a better case to keep them in...).
Clarity Aloft seem to be the 'luxury' brand and also has good reviews - but I'm not quite sure what makes it twice the price of the Halo.
There are other models out there as well - well worth looking into.
