A fellow official had a breakaway style lanyard, but had to toss it as the breakaway part broke and would come apart at the slightest touch.
Personally, I don't see the need for a breakaway lanyard, as I've never had a problem with them getting snagged. Of course, I don't like anything around my neck, so I use those that clip to the shirt loop.
Like others have said, you just have to try the different types, and choose what you like best. Thankfully they are cheap, so going by "trial and error" is not costly.
