Rich-
I know exactly what you're talking about! Have had the same problem for years.
And ear plug like designs started hurting after a few hours also. There are
options, however. Years ago I bought a Telex HTW-2A. They were perfect!
Assuming background noise isn't an issue, they can be adjusted so that no part
actually touches any part of the ear. They look sort of like a stethoscope.

Worked fine until I wanted the added feature of a boom mike and bought the Heil
ProSet Plus. Same problem again, plus the heat after wearing for a few hours.
So I marked the cushions and cut a 1/4" slot on each side. Then covered the
opening with black plastic tape. Not elegant, but at least there's a little air
circulation and nothing touching my glasses.
