Headphone recommendations for loud music in a quiet office

Hey all,

I like to listen to my music loud and am looking to get a pair of headphones.
I currently use in-ears but they tend to fall out in the gym so am looking for proper headphones instead.
Problem is, I work in a very quiet office and find that headphones tend to be much easier for others to overhear than the in-ears.
Does anyone know of a set that isolate the music to me a bit better?
Budget is about 100 euro.

Thanks!

I use a set of JVC HA-RX300 headphones.

They are very cheap, well under your budget. They are reasonable quality, comfortable and contain the sound well. There is very comfortable padding that both blocks ambient noise and reduces leakage to the rest of the office.

Use Sennheiser 380 pros

Closed Headphones ... with no leakage. Office is quiet ... and no complaints!
