Default Clip on microphones?

I don't really like gaming headsets cause it hurts my ears after wearing it for some time due to my glasses. When I game I use my Creative EP-640 earbuds and have a cheap headset around my neck so I can just use the mic off of the headset.

I'm wondering if they have any good clip on headsets that I can clip to my shirt/hoodie when I game. It has to be good quality and produce no static, disturbances.

I was looking at the Zalman ZM-MC.. It was recommended to me by someone; anyone know if that's good. Any recommendations on what to get would be appreciated.

Edit: If not, can anyone suggest cheap headsets (not outrageously ugly) with a good mic I can just use around my neck?

Can you show me a picture of how the back of the mic looks like -- with the clips? It can clip on my jacket right?

Edit: Nevermind. I just saw the pics of Xoxide. It goes over the cable.. Will it be able to clip onto my jacket then?
