I'm looking for something relatively portable/foldable that's comfortable and delivers good amount of bass and does not bleed sound to the outside, up to about $50 new.

Would the now discontinued Audio Technica ATH-SJ11 be worth a try? What else should I be looking at?

Thanks!

UPDATE: Received the SJ11... they look great and feel pretty comfortable on my head/ears, but sound quality is a bit of a let down... bass is OK... would like more of it though. High frequency range seems somewhat muddy.

All in all, my old $15 Panasonic RP-HJE350 IEMs sound better than these ATs. Maybe I should just stick to IEMs...
