Headphones that are not made of plastic? (alien.top)

I have a problem with my headphone. It is made from plastic parts that fidget and rub on each other, making crackling noise. The parts would grind on each other with the slightest movement of my head. All the headphones that I bought have this problem. All are plastic.

So does anyone with a metal headphone have this problem? I would like to know what type of build materials avoids this problem

Beyerdynamics don't have any movable plastic parts or plastic-on-plastic. the headband is metal and, although the slider mechanism has a plastic cover, the slider itself is metal-on-metal. The cups are plastic, but it's not flexible and doesn't move against anything
