The old Sennheiser HD590 has to take the cake for the absolute lightest fullsize headphone ever - something like 210 g + 45 g for the cable. Unfortunately the headband does not provide enough adjustment range for large heads, but other than that these are like wearing a cloud.
I haven't had any major issues with other open circumaural Sennheisers either. That said, I still maintain that the original HD580/600 headband pad is rather too narrow and, once flattened, best replaced by a DIY solution covering full headband width.
