The sony xm4/xm5's are oustanding in terms of audio quality and noice cancelling. They fit really well and don't weigh a lot. They can get a bit sweaty though if that's an issue
Since the OP is asking for headphones and hates earbuds, i'd guess that you are suggesting the over-ear WH series.
I tried running with them, the problem didn't even get to the sweat part. It's horrible to run with the sealed cans doing a "toilet plunger" like motion when your head bobs up and down. It literally pumps pressure your ears on every step. It's one of those "never again" -experiences. (EDIT: it's fine on elliptical machines though, it's what i use indoors.)
What i have used for running though is the Koss portapro. It's good if there's not lot of environmental noises. Like if you're not running right next to a busy road. The wire is also a problem, thus i personally modded mine with a bluetooth receiver.
