Lots of people like wearing pale green - and they work, albeit with rather high clamping forces and an occasional incompatibility with non-DC headsets on the same intercom.
If it's budget, go with Harry Mendelsson. I have used their budget HM40s for years for most of my GA flying. A couple of years ago, as an experiment, I took those and a pair of new DCs on a long trip, swapping them a few times. Apart from the clamping force, there was absolutely no difference in quality that I could detect.
My first HM40 I bought in 2003, in 2013 it misbehaved (cable went and it went quiet in one ear) - I sent it to HM, and they did a complete overhaul and sent it back for £50. I wore it this week, was working fine still, albeit that I treated myself to a new one last year and it's now usually my passenger spare.

I've yet to actually try out the HM ANR headset. Has anybody else? For learning, that is still cheaper than a passive pair of David Clarks and on paper, looks like a fantastic deal.
