Allright, altought I might cause some trouble here but this is my experience (and the one from most serious audiofreaks):
Avoid sennheiser, Bose and Skullcandy.
Sennheiser might be nice in the upper (more than 200 bucks) regions, but below that it's safer to go for a nice Philips or AKG. Beyerdynamic made a lot of good stuff too and even grado sells very nice headphones for about 100 bucks.
I mysef love the AKG K141 by the way.
What budget are you looking in?
The Beyer DT990 or 770 are nice headphones to wear all day, but they are a bit big and expensive.
Below the 70 bucks mark Philips really has some nice headphones to offer.
Even their 15 bucks SHP-2000 is in my opinion better than any skullcandy or bose and also better than most sub $100 sennheisers.
It's probably better than any brand up to 40 bucks.
