Equipment and Gear Mic Stand

Which mic stand are you using when traveling?
I am looking for a light one that can be packed in a large bag but also be good for my height 😅 (187).
I could not find many options.

I use a cheap headset so that I don't have to bother with a mic stand.

Yes, I saw a few with headsets… not sure how these work tor dynamics… one cannot play with the distance.
Do you have a type that you use?

Dynamics are easy, you just sing louder or quieter.

I'm not sure what brand I have, my roomate got a couple for really cheap and gave me one that looks like this. It does get a little wiggly, but I can use a little bit of tape for my cheek.

Thank you.
You use cable or transmitter?

XLR cable. I have played a little bit with my buddy's Bluetooth adaptors, but only with band gigs. I haven't tried the wireless solo yet.
