I was looking at the bose triport but I heard that they are flimsy in material and brake easy. Also I know that other makes such as grado or sony make better headphones then bose. But plz tell me what over the ear headphones you would recommend that has great comfort and sound. I use my headphones for my mp3 player on the bus.

Everybody makes better headphone than Bose. All of Bose products are extremely over priced & very low quality. Bose always uses the cheapest components in their products.
It's best to go someplace that sells a variety of high quality headphones & pick the ones that sound best to you. Sam Ash & Guitar Center are good places, since studio artists want headphones that are comfortable for long periods & reproduce sound accurately, while live DJs prefer headphones that are loud & very durable.
Two headphones in your price range that I use & like;
Ultrasone iCans Semi-Open Foldable Headphones $130

Small, light, comfortable & fairly good sound quality.
Sennheiser HD-280 Pro Closed-Back Headphones $100
http://www.guitarcenter.com/shop/product/buy_sennheiser_hd280_pro_closedback_headphones?full_sku=101597318
Very durable, loud, comfortable & pretty good sound quality.

Hi.
I love my Sony's.
I've had both mdr-q66LW's and
mdr-q22LP's.
the q66Lw's had the nice retractable cord so they didn't tangle.
I found the q22LP's much more comfortable though, but that's a pretty individual thing.
And they both had a pretty good sound quality.
