Hey I'm looking for some cheap headphones for use around campus.
 
Some important things are
 
-They're $70.00 or less
-The Cable length is short (I hate having to tuck it into my pocket or it getting caught on everything)
-It's comfortable
-Doesn't leak a lot of sound
-Durable
-I'd prefer over ear to on ear (no earbuds though thanks)
-And not to ugly
 -I like good audio quality but I wouldn't consider myself an audiophile so if it fulfills all these and wasn't amazing
 
I was using a pair ATH FC700A around campus until my cousin managed to break get a hold of em and break them over break lol I was thinking of buying a new set before that though because the cable was a bit to long. Right now I'm using portapros but they leak sound and I prefer over ear headphones.
 
Thanks for your help!

No so such whether your country sell ATH-SJ5 or not, it sound very decent and is easy to carry around.
 
The WM55 you mentioned is very convenient in a way that it's retractable cable, thus you don't have to worry much about keeping the cable after usage. 
 
Else you can consider ATH-FC700, not sure of the price, but If I remember Correctly, it's below 100bucks. It comes with a 0.5m cable length plus a meter extension cable.
