you pay a serious premium for any 'gamer' headphones (with mic), you'd be better off getting a cheap mic with a mic stand and a high quality wireless headset.
from my searching it looks like wireless + open back = not really a thing, i found "Sennheiser RS 185" but they're discontinued, maybe "Grado GW100"

Good luck!

I second the getting a separate mic thing.

thanks yeah i may just do that. i cant find where i located the one pair that matched everything but they were every bit of 2k. and i would really think sennheiser would be the one to do this but alas.

just get the pc38x, the wire that comes with it is a mile long and replaceable. I've never noticed it even existing.

has the flip up mic mute, open back, good sound-stage. Can also buy 25 of them for the price of those 2k ones =)

thanks dude i may do this as well.

open with mic but wired: audeze lcd gx
closed with mic but wireless: audeze penrose/mobius
could also get something open + wireless and a clip on mic or a mic stand (if going for sound quality the hifiman ananda bt is the best open and wireless headphone probably)
my recommendation would be to get a all on one wireless gamer headset from hyperx or steelseries or whatever and tell your family to shout when they need you
